Ain't no party like an Olsen party

It's been about a hundred years since the last post, so, this will be long. But long is good when it's full of baby pictures, right?
Here goes:

Here are Dane and Alec trying on the shoes I got them for the wedding. Too big, but very cute.
At the rehearsal dinner for Erik's sister Dana's wedding, the whole group had family pictures taken. Reid was periodically found running around. This is a horribly blurry picture, but I love it. It shows the Reid I see every day, carefree and full of life and wonder.
Pretty Aunt Jan consoling a cranky Dane.
Grandma with sweet baby Jane.
Here are Erik's parents with all the grandchildren. It takes a lot of attempts to get a good picture with this many little ones.
I love this last one because Reid is showing his fruit snack (our good behavior bribe trick of the trip) and Alec has a feisty face on.
A blurry picture of me, but I don't get my picture taken very often, so here it is.
This one is funny because you can see the spit-up all over my pants and Alec has a crazy face on.
The day of the wedding! We were so excited to get to go to Colorado to be there to celebrate as Dana married the love of her life, Errol. They have an amazing story and we're so happy that they have each other. The wedding was so beautiful and it was wonderful to spend the day together as a family. Here's handsome Erik with our little Reid.
Baby Dane showing off his fancy duds. Hip hip to my mom for making the tie for Reid and the bow ties for the babies!
Alec is so full of personality. He makes the funniest faces, and here he's like, "Whoo-hoo! Dana's gettin' hitched!"
Checking out his shoe.
Reid being a good boy and occupying himself before the ceremony started.
Here's the group. The three brothers, and Natalie (Zach's wife).
Dana and Dad going down the aisle. It was my favorite moment of the day. They were both teary and it was such a special and touching sight.

This was one of Reid's pictures. We let him take a few and this is from his viewpoint:
sippy cup
funny Uncle Zach
Uncle Nick with cousin Kate
lots of pretty twinkle lights
Me and the huz.
Reid digging the wedding cake.
Erik catching a dance with the beautiful bride.
After the wedding was over, we all partied at Erik's parent's house for the next week and just got back yesterday. I loved all the company and help with my little crew. They got lots of love and attention. Here's a cute shot of sweet little tummies.
Reid enjoying his first Krispy Kreme.
We went on a train ride through the mountains and got to listen to Reid's train impression. It's a good one.
That brings us to this morning. Reid is showing me "Peek a BOO!" I can't get enough of that face!

Great pictures. I especially loved the Brent and Carol and granchildren ones. I'm glad you all had such a wonderful time together. Mom

I cannot believe how big they are all getting. Lisa, Kelly and I always are talking about your cute boys and how Reid just played us all! Hope you are doing well
