My little sister came into Little Rock on Friday, so we left town on Saturday -- of course carrying more things than Napoleon's Army -- but none the less we got off! First stop -- manditory picture at Texas State Line. Here is your picture, dad:)
Back on the road, things went well (except for a little DVD player malfunction, and Little Einsteins not being able to be played at our toddler's every urge), and we even got to listen to the OU-Texas game on the radio. Got settled into the hotel (more OU-Texas game), and then went to the beautiful wedding.
Kim looked amazing, and the during the whole wedding she had the most geniune smile on her face. I can only imagine that Sean looked the same way -- but its hard to tell when he's totally turned away from you. Meredith tried really hard to be a good girl -- and even helped Joe out by "directing" him during his solos.
On to the reception, and it was, of course, beautiful. The country club has pictures of all the former Rose Festival Queens -- so it was neat to get to see all the different dress designs and elaborate flowers. Meredith made several new friends that night -- our little social butterfly -- but finally got pretty tuckered out when we took this picture.
We ordered a few pictures from the wedding photographer, so I will try to post those family pictures when we get them. Thanks to Sean and Kim for inviting us to their special day!
Interesting tidbit -- I have only been to Tyler one other time for a wedding -- but both of these weddings were at the same church and the same reception site. Everywhere we went we thought "I've been here before."
In other Lipsey news, we are officially MDO dropouts. Sadly, Meredith never really got over her separation issues, and the teachers didn't feel like they could do anything else to help her out. So, more Meredith and mom time for us. I'll just have to find more things to do (hopefully with other kids and adults) during the week to keep me sane! Baby Russell is about 10 weeks from his arrival date, and our doctor's appointment went well yesterday. I've gotta get busy on his room, and start doing more Christmas shopping! December will be here before I can blink an eye!

I am glad you had a great time in Texas. Too bad you can't see other places in Tyler (ha ha!)
I am sorry to hear about MDO, I know you were enjoying your moments of sanity. Brinley has just gotten over her seperation anxiety and found a partner in crime (they drive the teacher crazy by not taking naps and mischief!)
We are trying to find a way to come up for Mackie's wedding, so hopefully we will see you in a month!
