A flower girl and a princess

Bella has made her debut as a flower girl!! She did such a good job and we are so proud of her! When Erin and Tim asked Bella to be their flower girl, I must admit, I was a little nervous about how she would do. Luckily we have a little performer/entertainer on our hands and she did such a great job. I couldn't have been more proud of her......

We were all sitting in the church waiting to get things started and I still wasn't sure what she would do. It came time for her to take her basket and get into position and she went without any hesitation at all.

The ring"master" Garrett was so sweet with her and helped her up and down the stairs.

She stood up there like such a big girl on her sticker throughout the whole rehearsal.


She is turning into such a big girl right before my eyes!

When we got to the church on Saturday I took Bella in with Erin and the bridesmaids to get her dressed. When she first saw Erin in her beautiful dress she was in awe. When she finally found her words she quietly said, "Princess." She said this a few times then realized she was now wearing a "princess" dress and pulled out her dress and said, "Princess!".

She was completely enamoured with her very own "princess". She followed Erin all over the place and kept calling her "Princess!".

She waited very patiently in the auditorium while pictures were being taken.


And then it was time............And our little girl was gorgeous and perfect and oh so precious standing up on that stage!

When Erin and Tim went to do the sand ceremony, Bella wanted to go with them. She was stopped and stood right smack dab in the middle of the stage turned around watching.



This is just a little snipit of her antics. She is SUCH a performer!!


She got a little extra help from Erin's uncle down the stairs.

I love her face!!

Bella and her "princess"!

By the way Erin's dress was BEA-U-TIFUL!

Checking out the Fred Hartman Bridge in Baytown.
and then she spotted the "princess" and she wouldn't cooperate for any more pictures by the water.

With Tim and Erin. Tim is a good friend of ours from SFA. They had never met Bella in person when they asked her to be their flower girl. They got our Christmas card and decided she was their girl........ can you blame them???

Bella was worn out so Mom and Dad took her home so Terry and I could hang out with our friends for a little while longer.

Tim and Terry were trying to be serious. Terry was an usher in the wedding.

Me, Natalie, and Gretchen. We don't get to see them enough!


So Bella did a fantastic job and we are so proud of her. Thank you Tim and Erin for entrusting our baby girl with such a big job!!
