My beautiful little girl all ready to go!
What a charmer!
My cousin, Bonnie, was such a good sport! I would have been terrified of getting bubbles and M&M's all over my dress!
Well......... we gave it a valiant effort!
So- I had to wait a few days to try and recover from the wedding before I posted these new shots. As I feared- Kenna was a typical two year old during the wedding and our hopes of a sweet, innocent, accommodating flower girl were dashed in the first 5 minutes of the event. Kenna took one look at the bride and started crying, then would only compose herself for pictures when tempted with the M&M wedding favors, and the bubbles that we were saving to "send off the happy couple." Then- the time came to walk down the aisle and she screamed "NO!! I DON'T WANT TO!!", the whole way down with my poor mom practically having to drag her. I was at the other end trying to entice her to walk down with more M&M's. BUT- to no avail. I tell ya- Thank Heavens that she has about 18 years before she starts thinking about weddings- I am about wedding'd out!!

I guess on the bright side, she is beatiful :o)
I totally hear your pain! My sister got married last August and I could barely get her to walk down the aisle let alone throw flowers at the rehersal. We finally decided to have Aaron walk with her. She pouted the entire time and would not throw flowers, but at least she made it down the aisle! PS It was sooooo good to see you and you are my friend on my blog. Love you!
What a wreck, CJ. Good idea making Mom go down the aisle with Kenna :) I'm sorry that things turned out so horrible, but you can't expect much more with toddlers, right? It's kinda like taking the kids to do professional photos -- no matter what, they are always crying and upset, and then you leave and they're fine and smiley. Kids never behave when it's really important. I'm sorry that I wasn't there to see all the action! (Boston and Isaac would have been screaming right there with her)! Miss you.
signing off, Ace.

What a silly head! She's beautiful, though. :) I was looking through my mission scrapbook the other day and thought of you. How's Christian doing these days? Tell your family hi for me!
Reminds me of a story that I have heard about myself around that age! Ahh, the joys of being a flower girl.
