It was a very exciting day when we received the invitation to my lovely cousin Angie's wedding. Not only was she getting married for real this time (babies kept getting in the way of their earlier plans), she was getting married at the very same place that Bob and I were married - The Niagara Parks Botanical Gardens! How exciting! And since the girls had not been to a wedding before (that they remember!), we decided to just had to make the trip.
In fact, there were several weddings at the gardens and we had a full tour of the place in order to find the right spot. The girls did get a brief tour of their parents' wedding spot before we had to leave for the wedding that we were actually attending. There we saw all sorts of relatives who had traveled from the other side of Canada to get to Niagara Falls, including the infamous Papa Les.
Angie's son Connor rushed up to her mid-walk and said, "I wanted to walk with you!" Angie told him that she still had more walking to do, so he joined her and his grandpa to meet his dad at the front. It was a very sweet moment. Not to mention how lovely and happy Angie looked, even though, in her words, she looked like a girl.
We had a quick tourist stop at the Niagara Gorge. Sometimes I forget how impressive that place is.
At the reception, we learned that young Mr. Sam Mauro had a talent for photography, so I renamed him PapparazSam. Here he is, plying his trade:
Alison was the life of the party. She danced up a storm, including the Chicken Dance!
