Nuptials for the Birds

Jay & Robin (a.k.a. the Birds) got hitched in Indiana on Thanksgiving Day, and we were there to witness the blessed event! M. was the best man and the girls served as co-maids of honor.

Liesey is dancing in the Nutcracker again this year, so we didn't have much time off to make this trip, due to her rehearsal schedule. We left Keller, TX, a little after 9 PM on Tuesday night and arrived in Shelburn, IN, a little past noon on Wednesday. It's about 875 miles from point A to point B, so no matter the route we take, or the time of day (or night) that we travel, it takes fourteen+ hours to make this trip. To make the trip there & back, we were in the car for about 30 hours, and we were in Indiana for approximately 40 hours. It was a crazy schedule, but we'd happily do it again.

The photos tell the rest of the story:


"Mr. & Mrs. Bird"


It's hard to get a group this size to all smile at the same time & not blink -- especially when it's a self-timer shot.


The wedding cake was a red velvet cake with lots of cream cheese frosting -- yummy indeed!



The mothers of the bride and groom and the bride all look lovely!


It's official!!!!!



Cheers!
