Jonathan got married!

Two weeks ago, my nephew, Jonathan, got married! We are so excited to have Chelsea in the family officially now!

Wedding Party

Silas got to be the ring bearer. He was totally excited! Aunt Cindy had been teaching him to growl like the ring "bear," but on the way to the rehearsal, Si changed his mind. Our conversation sounded something like this.


Me: Si, are you ready to go pretend it is Jonathan's wedding tonight?
S: I don't want to growl.
Me: Ok, buddy. You don't have to growl. You just have to carry your pillow.
S: How about I just walk down to Jonathan and say "Here, I brought you a pillow!"?

Hahaha! He knew exactly what he wanted to do.




During the rehearsal, Silas did a perfect job. He stood queitly, mostly. He didn't make it through the entire rehearsal, but I was just proud that he walked down there! And,when he decided he was over the whole rehearsal thing, he just quietly walked right back down the aisle by himself. Bahaha!



 Rehearsal= Success!



On the day of the wedding, he was raring to go! We were a little worried since the time of the wedding was when he is usually napping, but the large amounts of prayer paid off. He made it awake and not ill! When we were waiting, Si thought he was the doorman, not the ring bearer. He kept the door closed at all times. Silas said. "I have to keep the bugs from getting in!"


Si even did a super job during the ceremony! He walked down the aisle with his pillow tucked under his arm like he was running a football. When he got to the front, he handed Uncle Boy his pillow for a few minutes so that he could play in the pebbles. After it was over, he walked right back up the aisle! He was a little delayed, following the bride's parents instead of the bride, but he made it! No tears, no noise, no distraction during the ceremony! We were all so proud!

Sibling love!
