Practice, Practice, Practice
The week has arrived for the wedding of our friends Brett and Liz. Months ago, they asked Henry to be the ring bearer, and now the time has come to do his important job! Having been to two weddings in June, we've had discussion in the car and at home about "what is a wedding?", the difference between the ceremony and the reception. And, of course, the wedding rehearsal.
Before heading to the rehearsal, we went for one last fitting of the tux. Henry had been having a little "I'm tired meltdown" as we got the tux shop, but Jeff was able to use his humor and "what happened to your hands?" lines to get Henry to smile! All was good after that.
We explained to Henry that rehearsal was were he'd practice what he'd do at the wedding. Here, Megan, mother of the flower girl, gives Cameron and Henry some last minute instructions.
Groom Brett gives Henry a welcome up front.
It's getting harder and harder to hold both girls at the same time...but I got one more picture of the three of us for the record book. Click here for a look back at the three of us.

After the practice session, we headed to the rehearsal dinner, where Brett's mom had made the cake for dessert. It was yummy.

Count down begins for the big event on Friday.

My niece's wedding had a 5 year old ring bearer. He performed exactly as rehearsed all the way up to the ring delivery part. Once his part was done, he lost interest in the wedding ceremony and began to wander around...until his mother snatched him up. I'm sure Henry will do better.
