My first cousin, Claire, got married this past weekend in Lufkin (about 2 hours from Houston). She married her high school sweetheart, Parker. It was a fun-filled weekend including a rehearsal dinner Friday night (Adults only, Austin stayed with a babysitter). On Saturday, most of the guys played golf and some of the girls were invited for brunch at the salon where the bridal party was having their hair and make-up done. Austin represented as the only boy at the salon (oh, I lied, Claire's grandfather was there too). The wedding was at the Baptist church and the reception at the Civic Center. I think there were about 600+ people there. Claire was beautiful and they looked so happy to finally be married. :) We pray that their marriage stays strong and that they have tons of fun together. Here are a few pictures from the weekend...

| Terror in the pew (he lasted until right after Claire came down the aisle - the minister started talking on the microphone and he got very scared - lip quiver and tears, so David had to take him to the foyer and watch through the window on the door) |

| LOVES Grandad. He literally followed him through the crowd at the reception just so Grandad would hold him "Up!" |
