Family Vacation in Amelia Island

After the wedding we headed up to Amelia Island for a little family vacation. We rented a condo and had a wonderful time visiting friends, swimming, eating and being together.

 

Trey and Scarlet's wedding

Our sweet friends, Trey and Scarlet, asked Pete and Taylor to be in their wedding in mid June. We made or way to Gainesville Thursday afternoon and rented a hotel room for the weekend. Friday morning Taylor, Riley and I went to a lovely bridesmaid luncheon (with only one minor chocking incident) while Blake and Pete ate lunch with Trey, Lanny and Sam. That afternoon Pete and Taylor went to the rehearsal and dinner where it seemed apparent that Taylor was not going to make her way down the isle without her daddy carrying her. The next day Pete had donuts, played Frisbee golf and ate lunch with the bridal party and the kids and I visited my dear friend Blair and her family. That afternoon my sweet mom came up to watch Blake and Riley so that we could go to the wedding. The wedding was absolutely precious, with lots of fun personal touches and a God honoring ceremony. Taylor Grace was a pro and made her entrance running down the isle pausing just long enough to smile for the photographer.
The rest of the evening was spent fellowshipping, eating good food, and dancing. Taylor wanted to dance and eat boiled peanuts all night long.
