Good Ole' Texas Hill Country Wedding

Last weekend we loaded up the girls (and 2 pack and plays, 2 high chairs, 2 strollers, a million bottles, bibs, food, toys and clothes-- and oh ya, a few things for hubby and me) and headed to Wimberley, TX for Richey's cousin's wedding.  Actually it's his dad's cousin's daughter's wedding... follow that?!  It's incredible how he knows 2nd and 3rd cousins- I don't!  but it gets quite confusing! :) It was a great weekend, but a bit challenging too- Riley wasn't feeling well and by Sunday neither was Reese.  They were such troopers, but didn't sleep well at night because of their stuffy noses and because they were in the same room as us.  They're at the age now where if they see us or know we're there, they want us!  But we survived.

We stayed with his parents, grandparents, and sister in the neatest cabin:

Isn't it beautiful?!

My (bald! :) )babies playing on the bed.

We arrived Friday and after putting the girls down for a nap, Richey and I relaxed in the pool.  Friday night the family of the bride had a welcome party for the out of town guests at a restaurant in the town square.  (I stayed home with the sleeping babies). 

Saturday morning after sitting on the porch enjoying our coffee we all headed to breakfast, but Wimberley Cafe seemed to be the WHOLE town's idea and we didn't want to wait, so we ventured to Dripping Springs and found a fabulous cafe.  (Ever had Dripping Springs Vodka, Texas folks??  Pretty good!)  

Aunt Becky (I think she and Richey look so much alike!) and Riley girl

Richey and me

It's hard to get everyone looking these days!  Notice Richey's dad in the window reflection trying to get the girls to smile?! ha!

After breakfast, we headed back to Wimberley to the town square to walk around a do a bit of shopping.  Then WE napped while the girls napped- amazing!  Then played around the cabin and then got ready for the wedding.  The wedding was at Old Glory Ranch- it was BEAUTIFUL.

The girls were not digging their bows- ha!  AND not feeling 100%

Me, Reese, Becky, Riley

The fam... it's hard to get everyone to look and smile! :)

Richey's (1st) cousins Blair and Erika were the flower girls.  Here's Blair with Reese- my girls LOVE those girls!

Papi and Reese... Reese was quite interested in his wine-ha!

The chapel was so beautiful.  After the wedding, tables were moved in for the reception.

The "childcare" was in the Maintenance Office- ha ha!  It was past the girls' bedtime, but they hung in there and were sweet to the sweet ladies watching the kids!

We left the reception early because we figured they were VERY tired and wouldn't want to sleep there with all the excitement... See Exhibit A

and Exhibit B.  Pitiful! ha!

The next morning after packing up and playing a bit, we headed to breakfast then back to reality!  (And brought the girls to the dr on Monday- just colds, but Riley's always go to her lungs, so she's back on her breathing treatments-- but doing great, and Reese is cutting her 4th tooth AND has a cold, double whammy!)

We had a fun weekend, but were reminded that "babies change everything. " :)  It was a bit of a hard weekend, but ohhhh how I love my little blessings and would do ANYTHING for them!  They are on the mend by the way!  phew!  I finally feel caught up on my blog!  YAY! :)
