After Ryan and Becca's honeymoon, they flew to Michigan for another reception so our family got to be there too since it was closer to home. The girls were so excited to meet Becca and wear their "flower girl" dresses as they called them. The kids and I drove up a couple days before the reception to spend time with G&G, Stacey, Ryan and Becca and Cam met us up there on the weekend.
Since we had a couple days before the reception, we took Becca to Michigan's famous Pizzapapolis which has THE best deep dish Chicago style pizza.
See that huge pizza? All of us ate one slice and Ryan had about 5 or 6... crazy! He was paying for it later though.
The girls' favorite game at G&G's is Pretty Pretty Princess so they were in heaven when Ryan and Becca played it with them. Ryan looks so purdy:)
Ryan sets up for his reception... I loved the hanging lanterns everywhere. They had these at their reception in Colorado Springs too and it was so pretty when they were lit up.
Becca feeds Bentley while Hallie supervises! (I asked Hallie to help, not supervise, sorry Becca!)
Hallie followed Becca everywhere and just looked up to her so much, it was so sweet.
Did you pay attention to the first picture of Ryan setting up the lanterns? Cause that's about all the hard work he did.. the rest of the time he rode around on HALLIE'S scooter which he stole from her and at one point she was chasing him around the building crying, "I want a turn, it's my scooter!!" It was pretty hilarious. Alright, he did do more work than just hanging lanterns.
See how pretty it is? Our hard work paid off!
This was the signing table at the entrance and the walkway up to the building had hanging lanterns with candles lit in them, very pretty...apparently we used those at our reception too!?
Here's my adorable kiddos! Grandma made those headpieces for them which they LOVED! They had ribbons dangling from them in the back. They felt like princesses.
The Drake/Voge clan...
Cam's Aunt Kathy is in my parent's stake at church so she and Sam came...with gifts for the kids too which they loved. Hallie especially loves seeing Aunt Kathy because she still sleeps with the baby blanket that Kathy gave her as a baby. Aunt Kathy will always have a special place in Hallie's heart because of that:)
Our family...
Bentley just loves Grandpa... he's usually the only one he'll happily go to. Even thought Papa calls him "Brutis" because he's just so.... HUGE:)
It was sad saying goodbye to Ryan and Becca... til' next time! Look at Bentley, he's just so happy with life, ha!
