Alex the Ring Bearer

We had a surprise wedding while we were at the beach. Karla and Mitchell (Kelly's mom and her mom's boyfriend...Kelly is my (DeeDee's) sister-in-law) have been together for 9 years and decided to tie the knot while we were on our family vacation. It turned out to be perfect. We always rent the largest house (9 bedrooms) that we can find when we go to the beach, so the house was great for a wedding. Alex got to bring the rings to them on a cute little pillow. This was his first time being in a wedding.

Picture below: The newlyweds are second from the left. Mitchell's daughter (Aysa) is the first one on the left and her boyfriend (Peter) is above her. Karla's daughters (Kelly and Kristy) are to the right. My brother (Dusty) is above Kelly and Kristy's boyfriend (Matthew) is to the far right. Katie, Kelly and Kristy's other sister, could not make it down for the wedding because of her work schedule.:(
This was our view from the 3rd floor of the house. The pool was wonderful. It had 2 swim up bars and the bars had plasma tv sets so that we could watch football all day.This was one of the tables set for dinner at the reception.

1st Beach Trip!

We took our annual family vacation to the beach in September and Alex loved it. He wasn't thrilled when the waves came up and hit him in the face, but we couldn't get him out of the sand. He wanted us to bury him in it and then he didn't want to get out. He loved building sand castles with Uncle Dusty and Kristy. He also loved chasing the birds. He tried so hard to pet one, but they were just too fast for him.

Roll Tide!

We took Alex to his first Alabama football game. He was interested in the actual game for about 30 seconds, but he couldn't get enough of Big Al and the Million Dollar Band. He also enjoyed to doing the wave. Uncle Bart gave him the #8 jersey. Alex loves the jersey and tells everyone that Julio wears the #8.
