Auntie Voo Ties the Knot!

Congratulations to the newly married Mr & Mrs Ben & Lauren Eagens!! Saturday night they tied the not at a beautiful Philadelphia wedding! Our very own Rob and Caden were in the wedding as Groomsmen and Ring Bearer.

The weekend was a whirlwind! We arrived in the wee hours Friday morning, had the rehearsal Friday evening, Rob stayed for the dinner while I took the kids home so they could get a good nights sleep... a fine time for the GPS to go wacky and leave us lost in the streets of downtown Philadelphia! But we made it through with hardly a tear (from the driver) and no scratches to speak of, although we did almost take out a pedestrian, but that is a story for a different day!

Saturday was the big day! Caden made it down the aisle with Aunt Dorothy! Unfortunately for me flash is not allowed in the church, and the camera just would not snap a picture until this very moment where Caden's noggin is hidden behind Dorothy's baby belly and bouquet! I REALLY hope the photographer got some good professional photos we can purchase because I didn't get a single picture of Caden holding the ring pillow! It was tough taking pictures with no flash holding a squirmy baby.. the tiniest wiggle led to a VERY blurry photograph! But I tried my best. Prepare to be overloaded with pictures as the evening transpired!




The beautiful bride and her proud Daddy!


Caden is not too shy to make one handed silly faces at me before he is allowed to sit down!

Cutie Caden sits in the pew as the ceremony progresses!

The vows

All dressed up!



Everyone related to Lauren! (except Aaron, Michael and Sarah.. the kids and I barely made the photo after a last minute decision to just wait for Rob instead of going ahead without him!)

Cole our grave-robber, but he was just too cute not to snap a few photos before returning the flower to its rightful owner

Lauren is Caden's Godmother

Michael and Sarah

Daddy is so proud!

The first dance

The band is a bit loud for Caden's sensitive ears!

Cora conked out about 15 minutes into the dinner portion of the reception

The princess was a bit too long for her bed!

Lauren and Michael

Rob and his Godmother MaryJane

Rob and I (note to self.. pull up the dress before photo-ops!)

Sisters!

Brother and Baby Sis!

Auntie Voo with Sarah

Cole was absolutely exhausted and only wanted Mommy.. so we danced and sat, but we did not spend much time apart!

Mmmm.. cake!




The closest Rob and I got to dancing together

Sarah was wiped too!

After plenty of thumb-sucking and belly button time, the Cole-man had some cake.. and livened up the party, just in time to get ready to go home!
