There is a new Mr. and Mrs. Tatum in town: Congrats to Jeff and Katie! Katie has been in our lives (well, since pretty much I entered the picture) so we are all so excited that it's finally official. Katie has always acted as auntie to our kids, but all the little ones love her so much and we love that she is in our family. The morning of the rehearsal, Hannah awoke with the stomach flu. No surprise there, she was my doctor after all. She was such a trooper and made it though the night fever and all looking as darling as ever. It's hard not to have flashbacks of five years ago. The same church, same loved ones. It feels like yesterday. It's kinda fun walking down the aisle at the exact same time to my husband five years later. I knew that Hannah would feel better the next day which made me glad, but we awoke on the 28th and Daddy was down. Oh dear, enter crazy mommy running around trying to get two kids presentable for a wedding, naps, feedings, baths etc. while taking care of a sick husband who needed to be well enough to be the best man in about six hours and somehow find time to get myself ready. Well, God is good, and somehow someway it all came together. (You do not want to see the mess of our house though) I brought the kids with me to Katie's hotel room and they were perfect. Auntie Laura fixed up my hair and everyone helped out. When I saw how happy and beautiful Katie looked the chaos of the morning disappeared and I just felt such joy for her and her special day. The wedding was beautiful and Katie and Jeff looked so happy. Hannah did a perfect job as flower girl and got many compliments later. I didn't hear a single peep out of Jack so he was also a very good boy. Daddy was amazing. He loves his brother so much and no one would have known how sick he was. He looked handsome, gave a great speech and even busted some moves on the dance floor. Hannah got the dancing machine award though, again making all the guests love her. Everyone was so sweet to wish Tim and I a happy anniversary. Five years! We even got to dance to our first song "The luckiest." Jeff and Katie are a beautiful couple and we can't wait to see where their lives are in five years.
Anniversary Buddies
Happy five years!
And this is what five years brings...HAPPINESS
Katie made me laugh when she said "Didn't know it was dinner and a show" Hannah and the boys loved entertaining the crowed during dinner
Adorable
Pretty lucky to get to dance with the Bride
Katie even brought Jack onto the dance floor
Don't be surprised if this is displayed someday at Hannah's wedding. Hard not to think about it.
