Uncle David and Aunt Lauren's Wedding
Well, they finally did it! David and Lauren got married. YAY. June 2, 2007 in Birmingham. June will be a busy month for the Wilsons between their anniversary, our anniversary, my parent's anniversary, and David's birthday. Whew!
A fun time was had by all...the newlyweds led the way with the joy, love, and happiness that they share. Geri and Lee came up from Orlando and were wonderful taking care of Nathan while mommy fulfilled her duties as a bridesmaid and sister to the bride. Geri also served as unofficial wedding photographer, which was so helpful!
It was great to see so many people, many of whom had not met Nathan. Jackie and Kermit really enjoyed meeting Nathan for the first time and getting to know him. Nathan sure kept himself busy mingling at all the social functions. Many times people mentioned that he was a miniature version of his Grandpa Wilson. We have thought that since he was a little baby, in look and in approach to life, but it was reinforced at the wedding.
A funny anecdote from this weekend comes from what started as a really bad travel experience. We were delayed at Newark before departing - for many hours - and Nathan discovered the moving sidewalk. So, at 11:00 at night at the airport, in front of all of the angry, frustrated, and tired passengers, Nathan ran back and forth on the moving sidewalk. Then he discovered going the wrong way on the moving sidewalk. So, I would stand at one end and he would run run run trying to get to me, then stop to rest and wonder why he was moving backward...only to start running again trying to get to me with a smile on his face, and waving to the passengers. He had every passenger in the airport smiling and laughing. Scott and I thought how wonderful it is to have a baby who makes others happy. Anyway, bad travel experience, but Nathan made it fun.
Another funny story is Nathan's love of music. At the wedding, when the band started up, Nathan immediately ran out to the dance floor and started going crazy (see picture). He LOVED the loud music - we might have a rocker in our midst. If he had napped that day, he could have stayed longer, but no nap makes for a cranky baby so after a little bit Nathan went with our wonderful Birmingham babysitter Sarah Beth back to the hotel.
Congratulations to David and Lauren Wilson and welcome to the Wilson family, Lauren.
