Becky's Wedding Day - Reception

After the wedding lunch, we went to my mom's house for only about 1/2 hour before we needed to go to the reception for more pictures (I'll post those later). Becky & John's reception was in the East Building by the State Capitol Building. It was absolutely gorgeous! My mom has such vision and some of her good friends did the flowers, and they were absolutely stunning! We had a wonderful evening! What a treat to see so many friends and family - we love them all so much! We had a band and they were great! Lindsey danced most of the night and it was fun to get out there and all dance together. The kids were so great at clearing tables, taking gifts and just being cute. We were all completely exhausted by the end of the night, but it was so worth it!

The first picture is my mom's shoes! She is so funny and even though these are not very comfortable shoes, she loved the feather!











This carriage was brought in by a family friend and so we put in the gifts in it. It was really fun!




This is actually an ice sculpture with fresh flowers on it. It was on the food table.


Lindsey & Candy - dancing the night away



Kirsten not only took most of these great pictures, but held Hannah when she FINALLY decided to take her first nap of the day.


And then Kate decided to take a nap too!

LOVE the picture of Stan and Pat. Everyone needs an Aunt Pat and Uncle Stan.

Lindsey REALLY wanted that bouquet - as you can see from her dried tears :)
