Flower Girls

Natalie was invited to be a flower girl at a wedding reception at the church last weekend.  About 6 girls her age were put in charge of greeting the guests, passing out favors, and having them sign in.  The girls were so cute running around, taking their jobs so seriously and joyously.  The reception was so pretty!

Kylie LOVED wearing a beautiful dress just like Natalie.  When the bride walked in the room she pointed and said, "Look! It's a princess!" Then she was swept away with the emotion of the evening and kept giving Karl sweet looks and kisses.  When the dancing started, she pulled Karl onto the floor and proceeded to dance for the next hour until we dragged her home and to bed.  Natalie and her friends danced too though they were hard pressed to find dance partners.  I did my best to invite the young men but only one or two would dance and then they would only do so with one girl!  They took it well, dancing with adults or each other but it was interesting to see what dances will be like in the future for them.  Karl had fun dancing with the girls and everyone loved seeing Kylie twirling and twirling around the floor.

It sounds like you've been having a great time with your family and everything going on. That dancing is so cute! It's crazy the differences between boys and girls. Hopefully our boys will like dancing. Thomas is like Kylie when it comes to group activities and he just watches (and picks his nose which is the embarrassing part).
