My little sister got married last weekend...

and, I have no pictures to show for it!  I'll steal some from her and post them here soon along with more stories, fun and adventures from our week in Illinois.  

As I was thinking back through the wedding party, it dawned on me that 5 of the 6 of us ladies had kids.  Joanna, my little sister who happened to be the stunning bride, had all of her nieces and nephews in the wedding which showcases her love for little people.  It was adorable, but a bit chaotic as you can imagine; hence the lack of pictures.  I'll slowly get some up here.  It was a beautiful day, and the wedding was so lovely!

As I was looking back through the few pictures I got leading up to the wedding, I found this gem.  My sister Jane and her newest little man who is 3 months old.  I think she might have had it the hardest of any of us moms with a young baby who, as is common to little ones, tended to get a little fussy in the evenings, a bridesmaid dress that was a pain to nurse in, and a sick husband on the day of the wedding.  But, she soldiered through the busy weekend of trips, events and the wedding day with her 4 little ones with a smile on her face.  She's just one of those unsung heroes!  I wish I'd gotten more pictures of our kids the day we went to the zoo and played together at the park, but you will just have to imagine the 7 boys and 1 little lady enjoying animals and play equipment together.  We were blessed to get to spend some time with these guys and wish we didn't live so far apart.
