My Uncles Wedding...

When I was 7 my uncle promised I could be the flower girl in his wedding. I was thinking he might never get married. Finally in April he said he was engaged. Which I might add was a big surprise since he had tried to propose twice and chickend out so when it happened we were still a little doubtful. But after breaking it off and getting it back on it finally happened.
On the 16th we went to Anise's house and tied streamers and balloons to the trees. And practiced our parts. When we got home I curled my hair, got my dress, jacket and necklace on and headed off to the wedding.
We, everyone who was in the wedding went inside and lined up. Now I can see why at a wedding everyone is always waiting and waiting till something finally happens, because it took forever to explain to those who had missed rehersal how everything was going to go. The music started and we began. Two groomsmen seated the mothers of the bride and groom, then out came the Bidesmaids (mom was on of them), Ring bearer (which was Gideon), The flower Gilrs (Luthien and I), and finally the bride escorted by her two daughters.
Everything went beautifully, except for one or two problems, 1st: two of the bridesmaids walked out at the same time when they were supposed to go one at a time (but they didn't listen to us) and the 2nd: people who weren't supposed to sit in the front row did so that kicked Grammie, Alyse and I out of our seats so we had to figure out something fast.
The rest of the wedding went fine and the reception was good.
