Bullet Points from Julie and Jason's wedding

I'd like to let you in on the memories of my sister in law's wedding. Some are sweet...some are less so. Enjoy:

~beautiful hotel room looking out on the water in marble falls
~sick baby boy - fever and fussy
~swimming with lily and lovie in the pool after several unsuccessful nap attempts
~justin, me, lily, jude and lovie in one room for the night
~jason (the groom's) parents calling to say they weren't coming for rehearsal dinner but would come up the next day...huh?
~lily throwing a couple of fits at the rehearsal dinner - one that included knocking all of our drinks onto the table, floor and her dress...soon followed by jude's explosive diaper on my mom's only clean shirt for the next day.
~crying a little in the night because jude STILL had a fever and i was sleep deprived and worried about him
~lovely bridal brunch at the horseshoe bay marriott - in love with the omelette lady
~pink plastic roses made out of melted spoons - yes, you read that correctly
~"aunt bal's" arrival and added help with my 2 crazy children
~drive to dairy queen to pick up lunch - the only alone time i had with justin all week - thanks mom and val
~seeing julie when we arrived for pictures - GORGEOUS
~justin and julie (family friend) singing in the ceremony...so sweet
~julie keeping it together as she walked down the aisle
~brent's tenderness in giving julie away
~lily playing in the back of the pavillion during the ceremony
~brent (my father in law) busting a move to mustang sally at the reception - classic!
~dancing with justin at the reception
~lily licking icing off of cupcakes
~having two children with dirty diapers at once at the reception - they have impeccable timing
~passing lily and jude back and forth between my mom, me, val and justin
~justin looking cute in his pink shirt :)
~jason's parents heading back to their room before the reception was over...huh?
~sweet farewells to julie and jason wilner (lily loved the bubbles!)
~passing out in bed around 9:45 that night
~endless packing the next morning and cramming into our car for the drive back
~lovie reading the same books over and over to lily in the backseat
~HOME.
