The New Mr. and Mrs. Hays!

Our whirlwind weekend continued on Saturday and by 4:20 that afternoon we had cheered on Jackson at his tee ball game, went by my parent's house to finish up the decorations, bathed all three kids and gotten ourselves dressed and ready for the wedding!  Phew!  Just thinking about it again makes me tired.  Anyways, after we got to the church, it was time to get the little girls dressed.

Miss Maddie in her first appearance as a flower girl.  Love the tulle!

While we were waiting for Lyndsie to get ready, our family snapped a few quick pics on the altar.  I was so excited to get a good one!

Memaw and Poppi with the three musketeers.

Uncle Andrew got in on the fun, too, and when the kids wouldn't stand up, he just laid down on the steps with them!

I really have no words for how adorable I think this is--simply makes my heart melt.



While we were waiting for the ceremony to begin, the girls had fun doing puzzles.  It was a nice change of pace from Lila's sprinting the night before!



Mrs. Jared Hays, the almost Mrs. Scott Hays and Mrs. Warren Hays.  Lyndsie made a beautiful bride!
The wedding went really well.  Lila got stage fright and opted not to walk down the aisle.  Oh well, maybe next time!  I did the reading from 1 Corinthians and didn't flub up any lines, so that was a plus.  And then I spent the rest of the time trying to make sure that Miss M didn't get too crazy up on stage!  She wiggled a lot, got down on the floor a time or two, whispered to Jackson about how excited she was that they were going to get to pick out a new DVD after it was all over, but overall did pretty good for a 3 year old!  It was really cute watching them onstage and I was very relieved when it was over:)



After the ceremony was over, we headed to my parents for the reception.  Here's the happy couple before they made their grand entrance.  Their get-away car was this awesome 1955 Thunderbird!



After we all ate dinner, it was time for the fun stuff.  Bring on the cake!

Then Lyndsie's maid of honor gave a sweet toast...

followed by Jared's funny one.  Cheers!





After the toasts, we had the three first dances.  This is one of my favorite pics of the night.  Scott and his mama.  So sweet.  I tear up even thinking about how that will be me and Jackson one day.



We could not have pulled this off without all of the help from these three awesome ladies.  Thank you, thank you, thank you, Mom, Dale and Louann!



When the dances were done, the party moved outside to really get going.  DJ Maria did an awesome job:)



Everyone had a great time gettin' down.



And Jared even got his mama out on the dance floor, I heard!



Right before we wished them well with sparklers galore, we got one last pic of us three couples.

  We had a fantastic night celebrating with everyone. 

Congrats, Lyndsie and Scott Hays!
