the ringbearer (& co.)

Finally getting back to the wedding pics after weeding through ALL of the photos we took that weekend. There are so many more that I could have shared, but I didn't want to bore anyone...

Sam and Ken (the groom)

When I originally told Sam he was going to be a ringbearer and explained his very important job to him he nervously asked, "I'm going to carry the rings on a pillow? What if I drop them?!"

Once the nerves subsided, I'm pretty sure the highlight of his day was putting on the tux. That was really all that mattered to him...well, that and the piece of gum I had promised him if he walked nicely down the aisle.

And, even though the flowergirl had a bit of stage fright just seconds before their shining moment and instead walked with a bridesmaid, Sam completed his (solo) walk with flying colors.



He totally earned his gum and the pushed back bedtime so he could party like he was...eight.

Sam and Sara

This picture leaves me wondering if "Sam & Grace" will ever be synonymous with "Fred & Ginger"...or maybe more like "Ross & Monica"...either way, I really think I've been letting them watch too much Dancing with the Stars!


The morning after...the boy who never sleeps slept in until almost 10 when we had to wake him so we could get out of the hotel!
