Pre-Wedding Entertainment

I realize these posts are all out of order, but Maddox will be up from his nap any minute, so I just don't have time to care! I promise we will culminate with the big wedding day!!

The weekend of wedding festivities also included a day at the beach. Lucky for us, a pod of dolphins decided to come celebrate with us as well, so we got to swim with them! It's the only time I've ever seen dolphins so close to shore and it was very cool.

The happy bride with her adorable flower girls.

My sweet cousin Kelsey and me. The poor southern folks from Kentucky just couldn't handle our cold California beaches. Admittedly, they are a little cold, even for those of us who are used to it.

Back at home, Evan got to spend some quality time with Mammaw.

And Maddox entertained Aunt Teri with his creativity. Hilarity ensued.

More to come...

Rehearsal

The day before the Big Day, everyone met at Lantern Bay park for Erin and Graydon's wedding rehearsal.
Maddox helped Alicia make all the announcements and keep everyone on schedule.

Then he and Nolan took a quick practice trip down the aisle as official ring bearers.

"And if you stand still for even a fraction of a second, Timbo will give you candy."

The bride-to-be and one happy daddy.

Those are some cute ring bearers and flower girls!

Annabelle and Maddox instantly fell head over heels. Some of the romance may have been sharing a large bag of candy for their performances in the wedding.

Evan spent some time working on being cute. I think he does a fantastic job!

After the rehearsal, we all walked down to a pizza joint for some dinner.

Erin and Graydon made Maddox the happiest kid in the world by giving him a pair of binoculars as a gift. They've been pretty much glued to his face ever since.

Jam Session

There's nothing like a little jam session in your pj's with Daddoo!

Starting Back In August

Back in August, before the great KercheDill wedding, the family spent a day hiking out in Pasadena. Most of us had a great time. Poor Abby said she doesn't mind hiking, but it's just all the walking she doesn't like. Hmmmmm.

The Gang's All Here

Our little group of friends has really exploded lately with the recent baby boom at Canyon. Our shindigs have gotten a lot noisier recently!

Up And Running!

After a couple of shipments back and forth from AT&T, and world summit negotiations about the price of a stinkin' modem, we finally received the correct equipment, and we are up and running! I have a ton to post, so here we go...

Modem Down. Send Help.

My modem is dead. What did we do before the Internet? We should ask Al Gore. I have so much to post to the blog, but I will have to wait until my Internet access consists of more than bumming a few minutes off the Kerchie's computer.
