Tommy's First Wedding

Last weekend, Tommy experienced a couple firsts. Early Saturday morning the local mega church near our house was hosting a 10K race.  It was going to literally run right by our house.  Tommy loved watching the people run by. 
 We came out a little late so the race was pretty sparse by the time we could wave at all the runners.  But Tommy waved to his little heart's content.
 One of the runner's cracked me up.  We live on a hill and as she ran by she said, "Loooord, help me noooow!" It's a tough hill and a church 10K.  Makes sense.
 Tommy made all the runner's jealous by riding his bike around the driveway. Brutal, Tommy!
 He had a great time playing outside with mama.  What a little Tommy Frog.  Check out his awesome farmer's tan by the way.

After we had enough sun, we played on the new furniture on the back porch. 

While we were playing, we saw our friendly neighborhood deer.  

We realized the deer was a she when her baby showed up to meet her.  

 The baby settled into a nice little spot and stayed there for the rest of the day.

 Close-up! The little fawn was just chilling.

We decided that spaghetti sounded terrific for lunch. Tommy thought it tasted terrific. 

After his nap, we headed up to Tommy's first wedding.  Tommy spent most of the drive on his phone. 

 When we got to the wedding, Tommy was a bit overwhelmed at first but he eventually got used to the loud music.  He had an awesome time with Pop.

 Hi-five for Aunt Erin!!

Can you see Tommy's awesome plaid shoes? Andrew picked those out.  He got so many compliments on them.

 The wedding was super cute.  It was in the boonies and it was classic country.

I loved the twine and lights around the railing.

The ceremony was outside so they made the programs into fans.  Great idea!

 The main color of the wedding was yellow.  There's the groom chit chatting with Andrew and Doug.

You can't see the girls' yellow bridesmaids dresses but they were so cute.

 Tommy got to play ball with his friend Addi.  A Purdue football for two future Boilers? Of course!

 Tommy had a great time at the wedding.

 But he really loved playing outside.  He's a rock climber!

King of the mountain!

 He was excited when he found this golf cart.

 He had to take a moment to rest his head on the steering wheel.
Then it was back to driving action! 

When he got tired of the golf cart, it was time to drive Pop's car! Whee! 
 We tried to get him to go to sleep on the drive from the wedding to the hotel but it didn't work.

 We tried to get him to go to sleep in the hotel room...

But Tommy did NOT want to go to sleep.  He is all business all the time! Toy business! 

He was very wound up from the wedding. He had the hardest time going to sleep.  He rolled around and talked and just avoided sleep like the plague.  He eventually fell asleep around midnight.  We were exhausted the next day.  But we all had a wonderful time at the wedding. 

Congrats Joe and Kate! We hope you had as much fun as we did!
