The rehearsal party is in the books and all systems are go for the big wedding and for Isabelle's flower girl debut. She and Olan were in practice mode last night at the church, seems like such a simple thing to ask several toddlers to walk slowly from the back of a church to the front. Only about 60 feet, right? We'll see how it goes when the curtain raises tomorrow but all things went swimmingly last night. Isabelle and Olan will lead the way and set an example for all who follow. We can't wait to see them all dressed up and ready for their closeup. As for Oliver, he was excited to zip around the church and its pews and ramps, shame it will be a bit more formal tomorrow! After the rehearsal, we ventured up Elgin to Fresco for a great party full of food, drink, and even some magic tricks! Isabelle had a blast, Olan slept after an early flight and Oliver was happier to people-watch on Elgin than battle the party's crowds. Everyone had a great night and we received some more than generous gifts from Matt and Rhiannon, including a beautiful necklace for the princess herself. Isabelle woke up and sleepily made her way down the stairs, a scene to be repeated in 15 years when she starts spending more time at the Elgin establishments. A relaxing day at the spa for her and her fellow flower girls today, then off to the Chateau for tea and home for a good night's rest. Big day tomorrow!
Oliver the Explorer checks out the pews
Practice makes perfect!
Alms! Alms for the poor!
A chilly walk up Elgin street with Auntie Meggie
He might wear skulls but you won't find a sweeter boy
Chugging a beverage at the bar, also to be repeated in the far future!
The magician had these kids wrapped around his finger
Ok guys, important tip. Don't ruin the wedding!
