Plastic Wedding Bells

You can see what the littles have on their brains right now! They planned out a courtship, engagement, and wedding for their favorite dollhouse dolls and enlisted an older sibling for the decorations and photography. 


The man, Nathan, and the girl, Natasha, went on a walk in the moonlight with a chaperone.

(Love the windowsill view)

"Will you marry me?"  Great reaction, eh?

Even that awkward moment afterward was included!


And a selfie of the photographer. : )

In his funny, deep, 'manly' voice Nathan announces to his bride-to-be, "Now let's hurry and get ready for our wedding today." Talk about stress! Engaged and getting married in the same day! And trying to get it all done before it's bedtime! ; )

Set up:
Since it was an outdoor wedding they put down a green towel as the grass and set up seats on either side of the aisle. 

A wooden box with a runner of tulle served as the stage with Tumbling Tower blocks leading up to it for the steps. Mom's battery operated candles gave everything a nice cozy lighting and were posts for a crocheted canopy.

White picket fences (that kept falling down : p) lined the aisle.

They shook little yellow/gold and white beads all over as flowers.

The bridal room.

The time finally arrives:
Waiting...

Here come the flower girls!

And.... the bride!!!






Then there was a very short ceremony which consisted only of the Pastor saying, "And you may now kiss the bride!" Just the good parts, right? : )

Announcing Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Smith!!!
This is my favorite picture!


And they hurriedly drove off in a gaily decorated wagon to begin their plastic life together.

Roses and Ramen

Jerry gave Betsy a bouquet of roses today when he walked in from work. It was so sweet! 
And what was even more touching was that he also brought ramen noodle soup!!! We have been struggling to shake off a weird sickness for some time now and none of us are feeling particularly healthy at the moment. Ramen for dinner! Wahoo!
