Congrats to Dave and Marinda!

This past weekend, Marc's sister Marinda got married in Manhattan.  It was a beautiful wedding and Marinda made a gorgeous bride!  Dave is a great addition to our family, and we couldn't be happier for them.  I wish I had pictures to share, but I swear being pregnant makes you so forgetful.  I left my camera at home!  :( 

Marleigh was such a good girl.  We ate at McDonald's before the wedding on Saturday.  As we were finishing up, a stranger came over to our table and told us what a well behaved, pretty little girl we have.  We thanked him of course, and Marleigh pointed to his shirt and grinned, yelling, "POWERCAT!"  He had on a K-State shirt.  The gentlemen then added, "and smart, too!" 

As I said, the wedding was beautiful.  Marleigh colored and played through most of it.  Then all of the sudden she started belting out, "Baa Baa Blacksheep".  I guess she decided that Aunt Marinda needed a solo from Marleigh to add a little spice to the wedding!

Marleigh had a great time at the reception.  She loved dancing with her Daddy.  It was adorable to watch.

Saturday night, Marleigh didn't get to bed until 9:30, which is about and hour and a half after her normal bedtime.  I was kind of hoping she would sleep in.  I should never have told her that we would go swimming when she woke up.  At 6:56am, I hear, "Mommy, I woke up.  Let's go swimming!"  We ate breakfast, then went down to the pool.  After about 35 minutes, her little teeth were chattering and lips were a little blue, so we headed back to the room.  While we were waiting on the elevator Marleigh looked at me and said, "I went swimming!  Thank you, Mommy!  I love you!"  Makes me so excited for summertime and the splash pad!
