Darcy Loves Daddy and His Friends

Darcy Visits Uncle Steve and Aunt Heather in Mystic, CT:

Wait... where is my piece?!

Darcy Visits Uncle Sean and Aunt Liz at Sleeping Giant:

Both Darcy and Uncle Sean gave Aunt Liz "puppy love" faces.

Darcy couldn't look at the camera... the feeling of love overwhelmed her.

Aunt Liz is the best!

Wake Up Sleeping Giant!!

Well, it turns out that Darcy loves to hike. One Sunday we decided instead walking on the Canal Trail, we'd drive over to Sleeping Giant and give it whirl. Darcy was so happy there, we have had to go back, a lot. Its really great. Below you'll find various pictures of Darcy doing things at Sleeping Giant.

Playing Catch! Rach snapped this awesome action shot as she was running back to her.

Doesn't this look like a scene from a Disney Movie or something, so tranquil.

Darcy isn't so sure about the water. She'll get her front paws wet, but that's it.

Another action shot, Rach is getting good at this speed photography thing.

At the tower, she's to cute.

Thinking hard on a weekend, and Darcy doesn't approve either! That's a scary sight! But way too cute also!

Still not sure about that water.

At the tower. Way up there. Too cute.

She loves when I crush her.

Look at that face!

Queen of the Forest

Mommy, really! Do you have to keep taking pictures! I am getting self conscious.

Run, Run, Run!

Here I come!!

I love it up here!

Our Ring Bear and Flower Girl

Again, we will let the pictures speak for themselves.

Braeden before the ceremony

Of course all eyes should be on her!!

Like any other 3 year old, the hustle and bustle of a full house and 3 photographers made Braeden a little cranky. What solved that? I gave her my flowers.

Ceremony

Peter

Check out the yawn!

When you join the cutest little girl and cutest little boy you get...

Our Baby Friends

I can't express how incredible it is when the friends we have had (many of which we have known since we were babies!) are now parents. A lot of people have baby-free weddings. We understand some of the logic behind that, but it meant a lot to us that our baby friends were welcome to attend our wedding. So, this is a gratuitous post of our adorable baby friends.

Kaitlyn
daughter of Allison & Jeff

Kaitlyn and Braeden became pals.

Jack
son of Miss Dana & Michael

Nicholas
son of Katherine & Brian
baby brother of Peter the Ring Bear

Look at those eyes!!!
Soooo sleepy!!

We also invited my "former baby friends", my cousins Mackenzie and Brian. I used to babysit them when they were "baby friends". It is AMAZING how big they have gotten in what seems like a blink of an eye. I will forever remember when the doors of the sanctuary opened and I heard Brian say to his grandfather, "There's Rachel!" It warmed my heart in an instant!! Little Mackenzie danced up a storm at the reception!! I love those guys so much... I couldn't imagine them not being there.

Mackenzie
daughter of BJ & Becky
sister of Brian

Oh, I wish I could have heard what Braeden was telling Mackenzie!
See?! This girl can dance!
Tuckered out!


Brian
son of BJ & Becky
brother of Mackenzie

Ah ha!! A little camera shy... but we got him!
Goodnight!!

Just wait until you see how cute our little flower girl and ring bear were!!
