Bundle of Brooks Blessings: Aunt Sissy's Married!!!

Last weekend we headed to Aztec for Aunt Sissy's wedding. We are so happy for her and Russ. Our flight left Houston at 6 in the morning on Friday...wow 3:30 came awfully early! We got to Aztec and rested for a little while before it was time for rehearsal. The rehearsal went great and the dinner at Olive Garden was a lot of fun. We were wondering how Braelyn was going to do immediately being thrown into a new place with a lot of new people...she did GREAT!! Saturday was pretty hectic as everybody got ready for the big event. I got to go with Aunt Sissy and Emerson to get their hair done and then it was a race back to the house to get dressed, take pictures and head to the church. The wedding was beautiful, hardly a dry eye in the place especially when Larry sang! The reception at Three Rivers was a blast. I think Emerson had more fun than anybody dancing! Things somewhat went downhill after that...no fewer than 20 people, including Mikala, came down with a stomach virus! Emerson got to have a fun day on Monday. She went with Aunt Kristi, Uncle Jeremy, Tanner, and Keaton to a pool party. Our plan had been to leave for a couple of days and head to Durango leaving the girls with Grandma and Papa. Unfortunately Braelyn was one of the ones that came down with the bug and was sick the rest of our trip. We did get to get away for the day on the 4th and spend some time just the 2 of us. That night we had a cookout and had sparklers to celebrate. We also got to celebrate Braelyn's birthday again...what a lucky girl! Thursday morning everybody helped pack up Russ and Aunt Sissy for their move to Texas...needless to say we are the only ones very happy about their move! Shortly after they pulled away it was our turn to head for the airport.
