Little men

On Saturday, Chris's sister Andrea got married. It was gorgeous. She was gorgeous. Her husband Matt is a great guy and they are wonderful together. They're currently honeymooning the hell out of New Orleans.

Logan and Declan got to be ring bearers in the wedding, and that meant tuxedos for little boys. Everyone's favorite thing? Possibly. We ended up buying both of them for about the price of one rental (!) so now we're owners of two adorably obsolete tuxedos.

Declan got some performance anxiety the day of the wedding and we were all pretty certain he wasn't going to go through it, but when offered a Tootsie Pop at the crucial moment when the wedding party was lining up, he decided he'd do it for Andrea (and candy).

Grandpa Higgins happened to be in town over the weekend, which helped keep the boys happy and entertained. When the reception got a bit too receptiony for 4 and 6 year olds, he sped them happily away and Chris and I stayed a bit longer to celebrate.
