FLOWER WOG

We attended the wedding of Marc's cousin Chantelle and her new husband, Jonathan, over the weekend. The Wog had the absolute honor and pleasure of being a flower girl. She was delighted by the whole experience--but most of all she was delighted by the lovely bride. She just told me that Chantelle is her "new best friend" and do we have her number? She wants to invite Chantelle to her birthday party. She "tee hee[s]" at the mention of Chantelle's name.

We weren't able to attend the rehearsal because of The Wog's dance recital, so we had no idea how things might go. (It's my belief that children in weddings are wild cards even under the best circumstances, but we still hoped she would come through.) We had nothing to worry about, though. The Wog took the job very seriously, and her walk down the aisle was perfect. Congratulations to the Friedmans--thank you for letting us be part of your beautiful day!

I think this picture captures her adoration of Chantelle:

They danced up a storm!

She enjoyed passing out the bells:

The Doodle was a dancing machine!

Posing pretty.

The wedding photographer, Joseph's Photography, was amazing. Here are a few of the beautiful pictures he took. (Not only did he take the pictures, he also bustled the bride's gown and distributed the flowers!)
