We had so much fun at my cousin Jay's wedding at the golf course at the Wilderness Resort in Wisconsin Dells on August 4th!
(I do have to say though that we really missed my dad. We had multiple family weddings that day so he couldn't make this one. There were definitely moments of our trip where all of us girls mentioned we wished he were there or we were missing his dance moves :) Love ya Dad! We can all dance together on September 15th!)
It was small wedding that unfortunately had to be held inside due to rain that came and went too late in the day to set up outside. But it was a beautiful ceremony. I didn't take any pictures of the ceremony mostly because I picked the wrong seat to sit in! We purposely sat on the end in case we needed to make a bee-line with Paige, but I sat right next to the kitchen entrance which had a cart full of cupcakes sitting there. And guess who LOVES cupcakes??? Miss Paige tried so so hard to reach those cupcakes and would get angry when I would pull her away. Needless to say she was removed from the cupcakes and sent to the back with her Daddy :)
After the ceremony, I pulled out the camera and was able to get some pictures of a lot of family. Wouldn't you know that the 2 pictures I really really wanted I didn't take - one of all of my cousins and one of my babies and cousin Fiona. I guess we will all just have to get dressed up again sometime soon! Who is next to be married????

Missing Fiona!
There she is but now Paige just wants to go! (I actually have some really fun outtakes of these pictures that will have to post sometime!)
We had some dinner and Paige was able to finally enjoy a cupcake!
So silly!
And then the dancing started and let me tell you, the Kohr's, we like to dance! And so do my kids :) Paige was right up there next to the speaker bobbing her little head around! And Luke, well, he had his cousins Maddie & Sophie to dance with, but I think he had 2 girlfriends that night. I caught him holding hands with both of them! If he keeps on dancing the way he does, I will have to fight those girls off of him - ha!
Nice!
Paige was getting pretty sleepy so we did a little stroller pushing for her and finally after just putting her in the corner, she gave in! Luke seemed to be wearing down a bit too so I made a little "bed" for him with the chairs. But then "Sexy and I Know It" came on and this kid went flying out onto the dance floor. LOL! He definitely got a second wind after that!
After Luke got his second wind, he and Sophie gathered all of the flower petals from the tables and decorated the dance floor!
3 people were missing for a large part of the night...."brotherly" bonding (aka "how to put up with a Swanson girl") with scotch and cigars!
Wally & Michael took the kids back to the villa, but my sisters and I stuck around for awhile longer.
Everyone was really getting down now :)
We had a really great time and are so very happy for Jay & Elaina! Congats!
