It's the understatement of the century to say that we've had a lot going on over the last year. Those of you who used to read the blog know that we adopted our super-cute, mega-energetic, sweet-hearted son Ben from Korea last year (Nov. 23rd to be exact). After he joined our family we pretty much went into "survival mode" for a few months. I knew it was going to be challenging to instantly become the mom of a one-year-old but no one can ever prepare you for it. Greg and I lived in a fog of sleepless bewilderment for what seemed like forever. And then....things clicked. We got it. All of a sudden, Ben felt like our son and not just a child we were taking care of for awhile. Now it's like he has been with us all along. We are soooo blessed!!
Speaking of Ben, he was recently a ring-bearer for Greg's sister Heather and her now-hubby Rob at their wedding in Florida last month. While he didn't quite make it down the aisle, he did look ridiculously cute in his tux....
See what I mean??
The wedding was gorgeous and soooo much fun. Here are some more pics....
Above: Heather, me and Kelly at the lovely rehearsal dinner.
Above: Reagan and I. Reagan was a beautiful flower girl as you'll see in the next photo. She did a great job!
Above: Heather and Reagan. Aren't they gorgeous??? Heather's dress was TO DIE FOR!! She was stunning!
And a few more pics....
Above: The Reynolds siblings: Matt, Heather, Mike and Greg...and an orb on Greg's shoulder...possibly a spirit of someone who has passed...I'm thinking maybe Mutt...
Above: Our attempt at a nice family photo. Too bad Ben looks like he's trying to escape :-)
Above: Greg, Peggy, Me and Ben. Peggy's dress was beautiful too!! I wish I had a full-length picture of it.
Above: Heather and Jerry during the Father-Daughter dance.
Above: The happy couple the day after the wedding.
We had such a great time and wish Heather and Rob all the happiness in the world!!
Later--Brooke
