Pics from a wedding we attended

Hi! Happy Wednesday!

We attended a wedding Sept. 12, 2009. In my opinion, wedding receptions can be fun or boring depending on how they are planned and how fun the guests are. This one was ok, but the guests were either not drunk enough or too chicken to dance, so we watched a lot of little kids dance. lol!

Dinners can be sit-down or buffet. This reception had a buffet, which is nice for the hearty eaters, but they had whole hogs roasted which are seriously gross to look at in person. Poor piggy! I couldn't bring myself to eat it. I have a pic below of the poor piggy. Look at your own risk!

The bride and groom were very untraditional which was a total let down for me. I'm not saying I'm completely traditional but there are certain things every reception shoul have in my opinion. Everyone secretly wants to see the single ladies and guys crawl over each other to catch a boquet or garter. Plus they didn't cut the cake! I love the cake cutting! My favorite part is the moment right before they feed eachother, you never know if the bride and groom will go all out and smash it in eachothers faces! Personally I feel robbed of some wedding moments.

One of the best parts of the reception was the live band. I needed a bigger flash to capture a good picture of them. Below are my pics from the wedding. That evening I was using the auto setting. I know, I know what a waste of a good camera, but I did manage to capture some neat shots, even while watching a clingy 8 month old. And yes I did get out and bogey with the kids! lol!

I could have used a bigger flash for these pictures. I used photoshop to fix my toast picture.

The infamous pig!! Poor thing!

These are some artistic shots of the table decorations.

I'm serious about my blogging! :) I have an awesome camera so I have been taking many pictures and will be uploading them to share. Soon I will be taking a photography class to learn all about my Cannon Rebel DSLR. I'm so excited. I'll share my tips and tricks.

Grant talking :)

I had Grant ready to go one morning and he was talking up a storm! It was so adorable!! I whipped the camera out to catch his "conversation". This was taken May 6, 2009.

Reaching for us!

Bubby is starting to reach for us! It is so exciting!! This was taken May 6, 2009. I was so excited when he was reaching his arms! He doesn't do it every time but it was so cute!!

Grant playing with his toys!

I love watching him! He is just so cute! This is a little clip of him playing with his favorite toys. This was taken April 24, 2009.

Whoa! Where did April go??

April flew by for us! Let me get you caught up! Grant is changing everyday! He reaches for things and talks all the time! We now have him on soy formula. He has been doing wonderful on it. His spit-up has really decreased. He is doing great in daycare they love him there! I'll post some pictures and videos of him. :) This video was taken April 15, I was holding Grant and he was just talking away, it was so cute!

Caught on video, Grant playing with his toys!

Caught on video Grant playing with his toys! He's so sweet! I put him on the boppy last night and he went nuts on his toys. I ran to grab the camera to video him playing. He was concentrating so hard. Last night he went to bed at about 9-9:30pm and slept all night! Ok I'll quit bragging about my baby boy.. :)
