A little taste of my sister, Melody’s, wedding day.
It was super emotional for me, and then I realized, this is my first sibling to get married! All my other siblings experienced all of this with me, but this is my first time… So it was incredibly good, and lovely, and just full of depth for me. To have known Melody her whole entire life, see her ups and downs, her questions, her victories– to know her heart. To watch her love towards Michael grow, to watch her grow into his love for her… And then stand up with them both as they make their forever vows. It’s a lot, you know?
You bet I cried. Shamelessly.
-me-
-Melody Grace-
-the “I will” before the “I do”-
-down the aisle-
-parents blessing-
-kissed!-
-mr. and mrs.-
After this we took some family pictures in another building while the sanctuary was converted into the reception hall. The lovely and talented Kelsey made all this happen! 
And then on to the dancing…
-Melody has the most peaceful ‘in love’ face, ever-
-isn’t this awesome?-
-cake face-
-we did a bridesmaids+bride dance-
-I think the only reason everyone wasn’t on the floor was because it was always full!-
-the toss-
-leaving-
-off to bliss!-

Awww I know! Last year’s New Year was so goooood.
And you’re right, our babies seem huge now. Zoe is 16 months! She says, “uh-oh” and “daddy.” It kills me! 
Conceit aside, great blog Heather (aka, sista)
