Trip to Pontiac, Illinois

Here are a few of the pictures we took on our trip to Pontiac, Illinois for Matt and Tricia Bruna's wedding this past weekend. We took off on Thursday night and stayed in Wentzville (St. Louis) with Dom and Emily Lickteig. We went the rest of the way to Pontiac on Friday. Braylon did such a great job traveling. Much better than expected. If he wasn't sleeping, he kept himself quite entertained. Once we got into Pontiac, we checked into our Hotel and then headed off to get Chris's tux. We spent the evening at the rehearsal and dinner. Braylon started to get a little cranky since it was past his bedtime, so I took him back to the hotel so that Chris could hand out with all his Friends.
Saturday came the beautiful wedding. Chris was an usher, and was able to watch Braylon at the back of the church during the whole ceremony so that I could pay attention. We had a lovely dinner at the reception and had to take a break so that Daddy and Braylon could take a little nap before the dance. Braylon was SOOO cute at the dance. He loved all the other little kids and took a special liking to Matt's little brothers. He danced and showed off to everyone. We stayed until about 10:30 and then it was time to get the guys to bed!
We left Sunday morning to head back to Wentzville to spend the rest of the day with the Lickteigs. They BBQ'd for us that evening. We had so much fun hanging out with them. They also announced that they were expecting in late April/early May. We are so excited for them! Braylon can't wait for a new friend!! We finished up our trip Monday morning by heading home. It was so nice to be back in familiar territory!!

Enjoy the pictures from our very long weekend!
