Flower Girl

Every little girls dream...to be a flower girl! Well, at least it was mine growing up. When I was three I had the honour of being my aunt's flower girl but unfortunately on the big day I stubbornly decided I wasn't going to walk down the aisle. Years later I had the chance of being a flower girl. It was a memory I still treasure...the white dress, the hair, the nervous butterflies in my stomach. For Adrianna, having the honour of being a flower girl came at only 19.5 months at my cousin Sandy's wedding on May 1st. We weren't sure she would actually do it, but I am proud and happy to report that she did it! Since it will be Harvie that may walk her down the aisle one day, he was the one standing at the back of the church and I was at the front. She didn't quite get the walking down...she ran down the aisle! She was supposed to walk with a little boy a couple of months younger. During the dress rehearsal she started off with him but then he took off and ran down the aisle. Well, not be be outdone by him the second time...he hesitated at first and Adrianna started alone. Half way down the aisle she turned around, looked back and saw him coming. That was her cue to run! She was going to win this race. The cutest part was when she got to the front of the church she turned around looked at everyone and started clapping, proud of her accomplishment! It was so precious that everyone started clapping! I only stopped the short video a little too soon to capture that beautiful moment. We took a few pictures after the wedding, but taking pictures of an active toddler is a challenging task! Here are a few of her big day...and of course Sandy's big day too!
