Our first wedding celebration

My step sister Cindy got married over the weekend so Jackson, Jenna and I packed up and traveled to "the Big City" (as Jackson calls it). We stayed at Papa and Nana's house on Friday night and played there on Saturday until it was time to head to the church. Since Daddy had to work I was a little stressed about taking care of both kids on my own during church and then trying to keep things under control at the reception. Well, not only was the ceremony beautiful, it went GREAT!! Jackson was very well behaved and played with the items I put in our activity bag. Jenna just loved looking around and watching everyone and everything. After that we took a break at Grandma and Grandpa Steves house and then went to the reception. AGAIN... very nervous!!!! But.. Jackson proved to me that he is growing up. He was very patient (keeping in mind he is a 4 year old) while wating for his kids food to come... he passed the time by clinking on the glasses like they do when they want the bride and groom to kiss.... but he made a game out of it and would clink the glasses and then he would have to kiss one of the family members at the table. It was very cute and welcomed by all! Jenna, again.. just loves noise, people and chaios.... so she was in heaven. Now by this time it was getting late and I was wondering how long the kids would hold out. We had supper (which was WONDERFUL) had cake and then waited for the DJ to start playing. Jackson was READY to dance!! Turns out there was a girl who was 3 1/2 there and had a webkins too... There was an INSTANT CONNECTION!!! :) Lord help us! Here are some pictures... the next post will have a few videos of Jackson and his girlfriend dancing. Happy Mothers Day to all of you. It also happens to be my hubbys birthday today... what a great day. Jenna surprised me with a great necklace with her birth stone in it! I am soo blessed to have such a great family. (Love the picture of Jackson loving up Jenna).. and the look on her face....
