Mississippi Wedding

Last weekend Eric and Mariclaire were married in the Delta, and it was a perfect wedding.  A Nix wedding is always a good time, and this one did not disappoint.  Brad and Natalie were both in the wedding party, so Allison graciously agreed to keep Luke and James for the weekend.  It seems that Caroline has learned to keep up with these two cousins!

All of Brad's family was in town for the wedding, and we had such a great time visiting.  We loved seeing everyone, especially sweet Abigail.   These two girls are 6 months apart, and they are as thick as thieves.  I think they both enjoyed the extra attention this weekend--no siblings on the trip.  Grandmama made sure their hair was perfectly curled, sashes tied and that they wanted for nothing.  After the rehearsal dinner a babysitter took the girls back to Georgia and Gary's room.  We walked in around midnight, and these two princesses were sprawled out in this huge bed with the remnants of their room service still at the foot of the bed.

When I say that Natalie loved every second on the weekend, she literally loved every second of this weekend.  She loved The Alluvian (she walked in, and said "Mom, a big fluffy purple chair!"), loved the attention, loved the doting, loved the dresses, loved the "party", loved it all!

And most of all, Natalie LOVED Mariclaire!  I walked into the bride's suite, and Natalie was standing right beside Mariclaire, looking up in awe and lightly touching Mariclaire's dress.  Everywhere Mariclaire went, Natalie wanted to go.  Mariclaire was so sweet to Natalie, and as I told her, Mariclaire was Disney Princess incarnate.

This was the flower girl on the ride home Sunday.  Such sass.

We had such a wonderful time celebrating Eric and Mariclaire!!
