the wedding (warning lots of pics)

9
sorry its taken me so long to do a wedding post.  I didnt know where to begin it! lol! Everything turned out perfectly.  The barn where the wedding took place was just so cool!  I think it was exactly the way Vanessa wanted it to be.   The barn is part of a winery and was about 45 minutes away from where the reception was.
rehersal
We went to the barn on friday night to set it up and have the rehersal and rehersal dinner.  There were about 24 of us.  I bought pizza and wings and chips,  with of course beer and pop!  And I made brownies for dessert.  we had a good time setting up and of course everyone was excited about the next day!

The babies had a blast running around in the barn.  it was hard to get them to hold still for a minute to take their pictures!  lol!

Saturday morning I went and had my hair done  then went to pick up coffee, bagels and donuts for the guys at Tim Hortons.  I also picked up both baby pies so their mommys and daddys could go in the limo with out them.  I do have to say, getting them ready and making sure the guys were all set including my husband made it a little difficult for me to get ready!  but I managed!  I just forgot to put lotion and perfume on though!
waiting to go
Torry and Marlaina both looked so stinking cute!
baby pies
The limo took the guys out to the barn and then came back to tony and nessas to pick up the girls.  the babies and grandpa and grammie drove in the car!  no limo for this princess! LOL!
the guys and the babies
The ceremony was beautiful.. but I didnt get very good pictures.  we will have to wait for the professional ones.  I didnt even get one of nessa coming down the isle!!!  I was a little distracted by my grandpies.  my son started to cry a bit when he said his vows and vanessa had tears through the whole thing..  I shed a few when tony did. 
rob and marla, beth and torry and caydence
Everyone looked beautiful.  Beth was the maid of honor and Rob was the best man and it was sort of funny to see them coming down the isle together babies in tow.. look at the look on torrys face in the above pic!  Neither baby was very cooperative to be honest.. but they are just babys and to expect anything more of them would be nuts.
tiffany and Tony T
Jens husband and tiff came down together..
Jen and Torry

I'm loving all the pictures. Everyone looked so beautiful. Your grands are just precious. What a beautiful wedding. Congratulations to your son and his new bride. The barn looks like such a cool venue.

PS. Best wishes with your court date today. Chris got a speeding ticket this summer. His first too. He was able to take an online class on driver's safety to have the points removed.

Looks like such a neat place for a wedding, everyone looks lovely. :) Did you get to dance to "Simple Man"? I thought that was the greatest idea!
