The wedding of... the letters Q & U

A couple weeks ago the pre-k program at All Saints had one of the cutest weddings I have ever attended - one for the letters Q & U! At first I was a little confused, but after attending and seeing how the kids "got it" - it all made much more sense. With the heavy emphasis on letters, annunciation & phonics, it helped to drive the fact home that q&u are almost always a pair. Each class drew names for the bride, groom, bridesmaids & groomsmen, etc. Ian, from Braxton's class was the groom and Finleigh, from the 5 day class was the bride. Braxton's friend from bridge, Matthew was the dad of the groom and Braxton was a groomsman. They had specific things they were to wear and do and say... like a real wedding! It was all too precious and made me realize I am nowhere near ready for a wedding of our own... thank goodness we are 20+ years away from that...

The program:
 Braxton walking a bridesmaid down the aisle...
 John David - not near as nervous as B!
 All the groomsmen...
 The groom - the letter U!
 Flower girls...
 The father & the bride - Q!
 Everyone together...
 Father Mel letting them know the letters are never to be separated as long as they shall live...
 Harper was a mess during the ceremony...
 Pronounced husband & wife...
 Procession...
 Proud dad of a groomsman...
Bubbles!

 At the reception...
 One of the reception tables...
 Cookies with the letters...
The reception started to get a little wild - as they usually do! 

Harper, of course, had to join in on the fun!  She is so ready to go to school - just like big brother!
