Emily and Owen anticipated the wedding like a trip to Disney. Idol threats to call a babysitter successfully forced them to nap for two hours. They woke ready to party. Even the process of getting dressed up excited them. Owen wore a dress shirt for the first time. The gap near the button on his wrist fascinated him. After he understood the hole was intentional, he showed each person he encountered and asked the men if they too had holes in their shirts.
Fabian's father officiated the ceremony and switched from German to English quite gracefully. A storybook reception followed in the dance hall of the old castle. Who would have thought the first family wedding our kids attended would be in Germany.
Emily and Owen danced until 10:30 pm - the latest we ever kept them out - in part thanks to Taylor who entertained the kids most of the five hour evening.
Love both your dress and the brides!
