A wedding and a road trip

On Saturday, our friends Carli and Trevor got married, so Madeline got to go to her very first wedding.  Unfortunately, we didn't realize that she had outgrown all of her adorable dresses until we went to get her dressed Saturday afternoon.  However, we put her in a cute outfit with a pink jumper, put a pink bow in her hair, and she looked pretty adorable.  Since it was cool outside, we got out her winter coat that's lined with animal print, which everyone at the wedding absolutely loved.  She was a bit fussy during the ceremony, so daddy and her spent some time walking around outside of the church.  There was also a mom with her 11 month old little boy outside, so she met a new friend.

Maddie loved the reception.  There was music, lights, and tons of people to look at.  Here she is with her daddy...

 Daddy's little girl...

 As we were eating dinner, Maddie was sitting on my lap checking out everything.  A song came on, and Mathew commented what a great song it was for dancing.  Then, he stood up, took Maddie, and headed to the dance floor.  I have officially been replaced as his dancing partner.  In fact, we didn't get one dance together all night.  He was dancing with this little cutie instead...

 I think this is a cute picture with the two older couples smiling and looking at Mathew and Madeline dancing...

 She was a trooper for a good portion of the reception, but she started to get fussy right as we finished eating the delicious cheesecake they had for dessert, so we headed home.

On Sunday, Mat went to the Chiefs game with a few friends, so Maddie and I went on a little road trip to Wichita with my parents and Michael.  Lindsay and Phil were in Pratt for a wedding this weekend (the 25th one they've been to in the 4 years they've been dating.  I'd say it's about time they had one of their own!) so Lindsay met us in Wichita for lunch since she hadn't seen Michael since last February, and she hadn't seen Maddie in about a month.  I'm sure she was also excited to see Mom, Dad, and I.  In honor of her auntie the former ballerina, Maddie wore her pink dancing monkey outfit...

 She was a champ on the longest car ride of her life.  I thought she would fall asleep, but she sat in her car seat and jibber-jabbered away for the first 1 1/2 hours on the way down and back and only took a short nap.

When we got home, she crashed on the couch with her daddy to watch some football...

 They both look so comfy in this picture...

Another busy and fun filled weekend around our house!
