The Kalal Family: Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Kalal

Congratulations Adam and Chelsea!

We were so honored to be a part of their wedding on April 18. All three kids were included, and Jeremy and I were best man and bridesmaid. It was a really fun, and we could not have been more proud of the job our little cuties did. It's kind of funny, how before we had kids, we had fun at weddings by drinking and visiting with family and friends... now we fun seeing the kids have fun :)

Jeremy and I were very nervous and a little stressed out about how the day would go, but looking back, we had no need to be so worried. The kids did phenomenal with the crazy schedule of the day and the expectations everyone had of them. Grandma Chris was very helpful, coming to pictures to corral the munchkins, and taking them away for a while between 'events' of the day so they could get rest and play.

Cooper was a very responsible little handsome man. He took his job very seriously, and he cooperated for photos, which he always seems to hate. He actually smiled NICELY. We were so proud watching him take good care of his little brother in the wagon and lead his little sister down the aisle. After the ceremony, he started pulling the wagon down the aisle, only to stop about two rows in. He dropped the wagon handle and went back to his seat... to grab the ring pillow. Melt. My. Heart. He knew it was his job, and he had forgotten the pillow on his seat. Everyone in church chuckled as Cooper finished his job by grabbing the wagon and pulling Carson to the end of the aisle. Adam and Chelsea greeted him with high fives and smiles :) At the dance, he had a blast dancing and carrying around a ton of glow sticks.

Isabelle was adorable and did an amazing job as well. She loved getting her hair done and wearing a pretty dress. She LOVED the wand Chelsea made her, and she made sure to wave it around every chance she got. Her bouncy curls had everyone smiling. Explaining all the parts of the day to her was really fun, like what a 'bride' is, how Adam and Chelsea are married now, and Chelsea is now Auntie Chelsea. She didn't dance as much as we thought she would, but she was really tired by that point in the night. She wanted to be carried for much of the time after dinner, but that was okay ;)

Carson was his calm little self, and he was awake for the important parts--the photos and the ceremony. Although he was a bit fussy during the ceremony, he was a little angel for the day. His chubby little cheeks looks so cute with that little bowtie around his neck (or chins!!). It was fun snuggling with him between photos and the ceremony when we had down time, and it was fun seeing many of Jeremy's extended family meet him for the first time.

Chelsea looked beautiful, Adam looked happy (he was very smiley, which was so nice to see!!), and they both had a really great day. We are excited to welcome Chelsea into the family!

Here are some fun shots from the day.
