A tear in my eye

It's hard not to get a tear in your eye when you see someone grow from a baby to a mature young adult, have little Baby Bailie and then get married!! Not only that, but my gorgeous little girl Jasmin was a flower girl at my Nephew Robert's Wedding. He is a mere 19 years old, but such a mature sensible young man - he married Arlene on the weekend. It was just adorable!




It was a tiring couple of days. Jas went back to Goulburn on Friday night to do Wedding practice, and then we went back a bit later. When we got to Goulburn - we found Jassie busy putting on Nails with the Girls - she was soooo adorable, and so happy to be one of the girls.

Next day we got up early and went to the hairdresser to get our hair done. Jassie got curls in her hair (which really didn't last long at all as her hair is so fine) - but she did look adorable.




The hair dressers did a beautiful job on Arlene and Julie's hair - but it was all a bit stressful. They didn't finish all the hairs until just before 11am, and the wedding was at 11:30am! To Arlene's credit she didn't look at all stressed - and we all managed to get to the church by about 12pm (very fashionably late!).



Robert aned Arlene got married in a little Catholic Chapel by Father Damien Styles the same priest who baptised both Eliza and little Baby Bailie. It was very Quaint.

Little Baby Bailie was the Junioor Flower Girl, Arlene's sister was the Matron of Honour, her best friend was a bridesmaid, Julie carried Baby Bailie down the aisle. Anthony - Roberts brother was the best man, Patrick (Arlene'e brother) and Evan (David's Brother - Robert's Uncle) were the groomsmen.

Jasmin and Arlene's sister's boy - Shamos were the Flowergirl and Page Boy. They were adorable together. Apparently Jasmin wants to marry Shamos or Daniel (her cousin), so I guess she'll marry Shamos as Daniel is her cousin. Apparently the feeling is mutual as Shamos wants to marry Jasmin!

Afterwards we did photos on the lawn and then we all went to the Rimbolin for the reception - which was casual finger foods, whilst the bridal party went off to get their formal photos at the court house and Belmore Park.

Here are some of the photos from the day:
