What a Weekend!!!

We had an amazing weekend...my mom picked Marley up and baby-sat her for a few days while Travis and I made the trip to Grand Marais for one of my very best friends wedding!  Michelle and Luke got married!!!!!!!!!!  And it was the most fun I have had in a very long time!  We had amazing weather both Thursday and Friday, which made the weekend even better.  The grooms dinner was Thursday night at The Landing/Devil's Track Resort, owned by Michelle's brother and sister-in-law.  Sooo much fun!  There was an awesome acoustic band, great food, GREAT PEOPLE!  It was so much fun for the two families and groups of friends to come together the night before the ceremony.  Luke has so many WONDERFUL friends and it was a joy to meet them!  And of course, the LaVigne family is amazing!!  You can always count on a good time when they are around!

On Friday, we got up early and started on hair and make-up.  By 1pm, we were taking pictures in Michelle's backyard and enjoying the sunshine.  To say Michelle was a stunning bride would be an understatement!  She was GORGEOUS!!!  Luke is a lucky man :)  The ceremony went off without a hitch and the reception was a blast!  Both Annie and Amelia gave very heartfelt speeches/toasts to Luke and Michelle, and everyone really felt honored to be a part of their special day!  I'm so excited for the beginning of a very long and happy life together for the Phernetton's!  They are a great couple!  My best moment from the reception...closing the night out "on stage" with Michelle, Annie, and Amelia...rocking out to Sweet Child of Mine by GNR!  We are ROCKSTARS!!!  A bunch of people got the performance on video...I'm sure that will be truly entertaining!!!  Love you girls!

Travis and I arrived home Saturday afternoon and were able to cuddle with little Marley for the first time in a few days!  I missed her soooooo much!!  I know she had a great time with Nama and Papa in Faribault, but I think she was excited to get home to her own crib and surroundings!  She slept like an angel last night and didn't wake up this morning until 8:30am!  What a peanut!

I bought her a kiddie pool today for the backyard and we are about to take a dip as soon as she wakes up from nap-time!  And then it's yummy tenderloin steak dinner to celebrate Trav's first Father's Day!  Travis is an amazing daddy to Marley and I'm so lucky to have him in my life!  He does so much for our new little family and Marley and I both love him to death!!!!!

Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there!  And Happy Sunday!
