Tyler's wedding

IMG_6347

June 25th we drove to Gatesville for a very special occasion. Tyler Bailey got married! It's hard to believe the little boy who was about 13 when I first met him is old enough to be married. (read about our connection to the Bailey family here)

Tyler and Macie got married at Peacock River Ranch, a beautiful ranch with the coolest atmosphere. We arrived a little early and took advantage of the gorgeous scenery by having a little mini photo session before the wedding. (my favorites of each kid are already on the sidebar of my blog : )

The wedding was outdoors and it was hot, but it was beautiful!

I looked over during the prayer and saw this - I love these boys and their boots. And someday I'll have a picture like this with 3 pairs of boots!

Addie and Doak did great during the ceremony. It amazes me how well they listen and understand things!

I had the genius idea of buying the kids ring pops to keep them occupied during the wedding....should have thought more about what color I chose. Here's a family picture of us from that night, complete with Addie's blue teeth!

Tyler and Macie met at Tech. At each table setting was the story of how they met. Apparently Macie had drawn a mustache on her finger and Tyler started asking her about it, then she drew one on his finger. So that has always been their "thing". At the bottom of each place card was a stick-on mustache....it made for some cute pictures!

I wish I had taken a picture of the whole family....but here's Keri with Tyler. All the Bailey boys are so special to us!

At Peacock River Ranch, there are real peacocks roaming around the grounds. There were also peacock feathers used in the decorations and Addie loved them!

Tyler and Macie ran through a tunnel of sparklers on their way out

What a wonderful evening with wonderful friends and family. Tanner Bailey is getting married next summer and we are already looking forward to another Bailey celebration.
