Family Pictures? Yeah, right.

Maybe we'll try again tomorrow.

Reunited Cousins

Hannah, Kate, and Jack.  Just happy to see each other!

It's hard to be humble

The story begins:  Jon dressed Jack at the church in time for pictures.  The photographer running a little behind.  Time to kill.

Jon:  Jack, you sure look sharp!

Angie:  Jack, you look SO handsome!

Jack walks up to Memaw (groom's grandmother) and says:  I sure look sharp.

Jack walks up to another guest who arrived early and says:  I look sharp, don't I?

Jon:  Jack, you don't say nice things about yourself.  You wait for others to say nice things about you and then say thank you.  You need to be humble.  

Jack:  Okay, Daddy.  Sorry.

Jack thinks for a minute and walks up to someone else he doesn't know and says:  How do I look???

Trendy Duck

There was a small duck pond right next to our hotel in Highlands, NC. While Jon was ironing our clothes, Jack and I went to go feed the ducks. FYI - Ducks do not like potato chips, but that was all we had. We saw this duck, and it reminded us of someone...

Hmmm, maybe...

Wedding Weekend in Highlands

This past weekend, we attended a wedding in Highlands, NC. What a beautiful place. The altitude there is 4100 ft. Now I am 100% a beach girl, but after this weekend in Highlands, I've lowered my percentage to 99%. I'd love to go back and visit there. It's like the "Seaside" of the mountains.

Anyway, our great friend, Amon, from college got married. Jon performed the wedding and Jack was, once again, the ringbearer. We drove up Friday afternoon, attended the rehearsal, and then rode a shuttle further up the mountain to Amon's grandparents' mountain house for the rehearsal dinner. We ate outside on the upper balcony. I LOVE to eat outside and Jon HATES it, but since we had an incredible view, cool weather, delicious food, and no other option, he had a great time. Jack was not feeling so well, and sat in my lap all through dinner, so we had to give up on the incredible family picture we could of had. Instead, Jon and Amon had their picture made. It reminded me of another picture I have of them from a college trip to France.

Not fair.

The next morning, Jack woke up with the sunrise at 6:30, and since the continental breakfast at the hotel didn't start until 8:00, we opted to venture out into town and find a breakfast place and bum around town for the rest of the morning.

Excuse me, but I believe he ordered the giant banana pancake.

All in all, we had a great weekend, Jack and Jon both did a great job, and we made it back home safely.
