Daddy she isn't talking to you

We had an awesome family weekend with lots of lounging, but some really fun moments like checking out our friends B&A's beautiful new home that took years to build, but is stunning and getting to meet their third child who is even more beautiful!

However one of the highlights had to be a wedding we took K to on Saturday. The last few weddings we have attended have not included K as we have been in the wedding parties and thought she wouldn't enjoy being stuck with a nanny while we were off. So Saturday we took K to the first weddding she has been to since being a baby... and she loved it. The wedding was at the Stanford church so beautiful and of course great grounds for running... T was holding K as the priest asked the audience if we will support the couple etc. etc. K who was watching every detail turned to T when he said "we will" and told him in a firm voice. "Daddy, she is not talking to you, why are you talking" of course I was immediately in giggles. There was a 3 hour lag between the wedding and the reception followed by a 3 hour dinner which K handled in style impressing our table and everyone around her.... Mainly because she was very very motivated by the cake... When it came time for the toast K thought they were serving the cake and so she belted out at the top of her lungs from across the room "It is time for CAKE!" Needless to say lots of laughter. She found some other kids to play with and they rocked the dance floor... very sweet to watch them dancing and even allowed us to dance as everytime we tried to dance with K she walked away to hang with the kids. It was really nice and although kept her up way past bedtime a great family affair.

On Sun we met M&J as always a fun time. When I mentioned to K we would be meeting them... Instead of the standard why she asked if we were meeting them "because we haven't seen them in a while and we want to hear how they are." After a moment of silence I said umm exactly....

And finally one last awesome moment was her first extended playdate without us at one of her favorite people in the whole world, Mar, who goes to school with K. We are doing trades every couple weeks since the girls can't get enough of each other and we parents can get a few things done.... As soon as K woke from her nap, we heard her run down the hallway from her room, down the stairs to see if it was really time to go... The girls had way too much fun together.

Sounds like lots of fun. I can get Fi to do almost anything with the promise of dessert on the horizon! :-)
