The Wedding


Jay's good friend Garrett got married on August 7th in Huntington. Jay was asked to be a groomsman and decided that this should be a special father-daughter date. So the two of them headed to WV on Friday, when the usual 6-7 hour car ride turned into a 9 hour car ride because Catherine kept wanting to stop and go potty. Jay also got to hear lots of stories about all of Catherine's babies. Catherine spent some time with Mimi on Friday evening while Jay went to the rehearsal and dinner.

Catherine was so excited to go to the wedding on Saturday. She has been talking about and planning for this wedding for months. She has been in a few weddings as a baby, but she really doesn't remember any of them. She was really excited to see the bride at the wedding and go to the reception for food and dancing. One day she had even suggested that she should wear her tap shoes to the reception so she could dance!

Here's the handsome daddy and beautiful little girl before the wedding:

Jay enjoyed spending lots of quality time with his friend Billy that weekend too. Billy mentored Jay when he was in high school and is the pastor who married us. They liked modeling their Toms shoes for the wedding.
Apparently while at the wedding, Catherine met a new friend. Bennett (the son of a high school friend of Jay's) took a liking to Catherine. He kept coming over while she was eating and asking her to dance. She held him off until she finished her dinner....
and then they danced the night away! How cute are they!
While Jay, Catherine, and Marcy were at the wedding, Steve came down to G'ville and we all headed to the beach. Melissa, Andy, and Marshall drove down on Saturday also, and then Jay, Marcy, and Catherine met us there on Sunday. So beach pics to come soon....
