13/52: Flower Girls

Photographs of my daughters, once a week, every week, this 2014. Week 13.

Rain: Loved walking back and forth the aisle before the ceremony started.
Dawn: Loved twirling in her pretty flower girl dress. Ahh, so adorable!
Dawn & Rain: Ended up not wanting to walk down the aisle on their own, we had to walk down with them. Parents have to experience escorting their babies down the aisle at some point, right?

It was their first time to be flower girls, and in typical stage mother fashion, I.. was more excited than they were. In fact, I think I was more excited about the twins being flower girls than the bride and groom themselves.

That said, you can never take enough photographs of your daughters’ first flower girl gig. Bunch of first timers here. ;) Here’s more from my Instagram:

I don’t think I ever stopped swooning the whole night, glancing at my husband through lit candles, watching the girls twirl and marvel at the world around them, and feeling the love that filled the place.

Times like this you realize that there’s so much to be grateful for, not just on special days like this one, but even in ordinary days when you’re given the opportunity to breathe, to live, to love. Hope you spent the Holy Week thanking the Lord for every good and perfect gift too, as we did. :)
