Eleven Twenty Five Eleven: We did it our way!

And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain! Yup, this is the last group of pictures from the reception.     Enjoy!!!
 

 

 

It's only in hindsight that I realize my kids are going to look at these some day...
It wasn't until the next day that I realized dancing like a fool is going to hurt the next day!

Obviously, I did not care at the time...


Really??

 
 Well thank goodness that's over with.
 

 
Love the mother/son dance and I love this picture of Kyle's mom's neighbors. They're good people, it's a super sweet pic.

 

 
Ha, cute face↑ (sarcastic). Tangoing with the cousins... Actually cute

 

Tangoing with the DJ... kinda' sweet.



Dancing by yourself because you're a huge nerd and everyone left you alone on the dance floor... Priceless.



Just let that freak flag fly, Girl!
 

 


This was when My Way came on and everyone knew it was almost time to say goodnight.
I was kind of upset knowing that it was over, but at the same time, I knew it was late, it felt late, and I knew that we would be continuing the party at the hotel anyway! So who cares?!




The place started to clear out pretty fantastically, but Kyle and I still only had eyes for each other. And we were indeed the last ones there.

And so ended our reception!

:(

It's kind of sad. Good news is it's not over over.

Ben took us aside to get some extra nighttime portraits, so those are still to come and of course, DETAILS!!!

Eleven Twenty Five Eleven: This is your dance space, this is my dance space

As promised, we're back to our regularly scheduled RECEPTION RECAPS. This is three of four I think. Still haven't made a decision about a house yet. Things are starting to get stressful with work and house hunting and all other stuff combined. So if I'm sporadic after recaps, please forgive me, but I'll certainly try to grace the blog with my lovely presence now and again.

ANYWAY! You came here for pictures, and you shan't be disappointed! I'll start out the day by thoroughly embarrassing myself:::
 

In my defense, this was Mia's idea, but then Ben encouraged it and took lots of pictures... I just got really dizzy.
 

Then 'my song' came on... As in, "Turn that up, that is my song!" but I don't remember what song it was.
 

 



I've honestly never heard that Willow Smith song, but I did whip my hair a lot throughout the night.

This has an interesting story behind it. I love the song Major Tom by Shiny Toy Guns but Kyle said 'You can't dance to that.' and I said 'Yes huh!' and proceeded to do a silly dance in the garage at his mom's house and told him that was how you dance to Major Tom by Shiny Toy Guns. He laughed at me and let me keep it on our song list. So when it finally came on, I made good on my claim that that was how you danced to that song.
I was then told I had to teach Kyle's cousin how to dance who had been sitting by himself the whole night. He's even taller than Kyle and quite gangly, but he's a great sport and he seemed to really learn from my lesson......
 Just kidding. But then Journey came on which was the only thing that could induce Danny to come out on the floor to dance with Kyle.
 

Lovely...

 


We even got my mom and two aunts out on the floor (the be fair, my Aunt Keirsten did not need coaxing, but the other two did), Kyle was very proud of himself.
Yay! My Mama had fun!! You saw it, you can't take it back!






It strikes me that I can't find the pictures of Matt dancing with Kyle at Mia's wedding. So most of you might not know what I'm talking about at all, this is a repeat event! These two complete each other... on the dance floor.
 The wedding would not have been complete without a few more brodances and a Matt sandwich.





Matt always manages to look like a big goofball but he was actually incredibly sweet the whole night, dancing with the girls that didn't have dates (and Julie who had a date but he was working). Doing these recaps has allowed me to relive how fun this reception was. And of course, Ben was able to catch all the goofiest moments. One more recap and it'll be time to say goodnight.
