I was able to get a few of the families, that came to the church early, to take some pictures. Keep in mind they haven't completely pulled it all together yet. Jewelry is missing. Hairbows are missing. In some cases, shoes are missing.
This is me and my husband. In true form, my hair isn't done and I am missing my jewelry. Even though my husband Keith is unarticulated, I love him to pieces.
"Honey, wait right here, I'm going to get the kids." (me)
My husband messed up this picture, but Alicia and I are looking pretty nice. Oh yeah, she said, "check out her purse". I couldn't find my son Tyler. No telling where he is.
Here are the Trotts. China, Darren, and Taylor. Look at Darren trying to look all dapper. Taylor is sporting her new Tigger dress (an Ebay find).
Pictured here are Tina (psychiatrist), her daughter Shantavia, and her grandaughter, Jada. Tina and Shantavia had to swap dresses. Tina was too old to be wearing that short dress. See that fashionista dress doesn't look so bad out of the pack. It would have looked better if I had gotten the lighting right. I sure hope they plan on fixing Jada's hair.
Chris and Kara Judd. They will not be performing at the wedding to my knowledge. I probably should check the itinerary again. As I was looking through my clothes stash, I found the shirt that Chris is wearing. I bought it 8 yrs ago. It is vintage and I had never taken it out of the pack. I knew one day it would come in handy. LOL! His sweater is one I made. Kara's dress is from Stardoll.
Their daughter Jolisa, insisted on wearing pink.
Here's Michelle Robinson and her daughter, Mikayla. Her husband, Frank and other daughter are around somewhere. I just saw these two coming from the restroom and I grabbed them for a picture.
I found a few stragglers meandering about. There's my son Tyler, Zahara and Nikaya Taylor, and Chad, Lisa and Charles' son. I made Tyler's pants yesterday while making Julian's tux. Nikaya is wearing one of the new Bratz dresses. Oh, I see some more kids coming. Hold on a minute.
Ok. We're back. Oh, I see the Lees are here already, too. That's their daughter Ming on the right hand side. It was hopeless trying to get all the kids to look at the camera. You know how short their attention span is. Let me get them back to their parents. I don't want anyone mistaking me for a babysitter.
"MOVE TAYLOR" (the gang)
There is always one ham in the bunch. Like I said, let me get these kids back to their parents.
I noticed these two when I took the other kids back. Jessica and Sophia. These are Sylvia and Christopher Redmond's kids.
The baby is wearing a new outfit. I didn't notice the booties were leather until her mother put them on her. Would you believe she has lost a bootie already. I forgot to tell her mom to secure it with a little sticky stuff. These babies are just like real babies when it comes to socks and booties. They must kick their feet when I'm not looking.
HAPPY EASTER!
The kids are sooo... cute! I especially like the little boy clothes. I'm trying to learn to sew. It's hard to find nice male clothing.
ReplyDeleteveda - Thanks! Todd was happy to get some new pants. He wasn't happy they were dress pants, though. I wish I had more time to sew. All of my kids would get new clothes regularly.
DeleteI love everyone's outfits! They all look great and the kids are adorable.
ReplyDeleteAlura - Thanks! It took forever to get everyone dressed. I started a couple weeks ago, but a lot of it happened this morning.
DeleteEverybody is looking nice and I love it also I'm going to pretend I'm Jessica because my name is jessika so I'm in the wedding now LOL any ways I wish the best wishes to rod & Danielle happy Easter to you to Vanessa
ReplyDeleteJessikaJ - Thanks! I like your idea of being Jessica. I am sure you are going to have a lovely time at the wedding. Happy Easter.
DeleteWow! They all look fantastic!
ReplyDeleteVerona - Thanks. They kept me busy all day getting them ready.
DeleteHAPPY EASTER Vanessa, Everyone is dressed so nice looks like you are woking really hard behind the scenes. This wedding is going to be a blast. Looks like everyone is excited.
ReplyDeletemustiwait - Happy Easter! Thanks. Wait until you see Julian.
DeleteAww too cute! Everyone looks wonderful! Happy Easter to you:)
ReplyDeleteChynadoll - Thanks! They are ready for a wedding. Getting all these kids to sit still during the ceremony should be interesting. Happy Easter!
DeleteLove the sanctuary exit... it looks like the inside of a real church.
ReplyDeleteEveryone is so well dressed in their Sunday finest. The children are just too adorable and little Miss Taylor is something else.

dbg - I can't wait for you guys to see the inside of the church. They heard this wedding was being broadcast to the world, so they wanted to dress to impress. Miss Taylor proves that she is Darren's daughter more and more every day.
DeleteEveryone looks so great, even without shoes, lol. I've already done a post on my doll, Tatiana, who will be attending as the Hey, It's Muff representative. This is so much fun!
ReplyDeleteHey It's Muff - Thanks. I'll be over to see your post today. My post today will be announcing the 'Post your pics to FB'. I will be shooting the next video today. It was supposed to happen yesterday, but all that dressing took way more time than I expected.
DeleteHappy easter!everyone looks awesome.The dool's family is very arostogate.
ReplyDeleteHumorous and true to life! Call me old school but I think Shantavia's dress is too short to wear to church. She needs some tights or leggings under it like the lacey ones Michelle Robinson is wearing. Everyone else looks great!
ReplyDeletelimbe dolls - Thanks. Personally, I was concerned about all the bending she would have to do as the photographer. We'll see what happens. Those 20 something year olds tend to do their own thing at times.
DeleteLoved the post and pics, so funny!!!!! Happy Easter to you too!
ReplyDeleteRossetti - Thanks! I tried to view your blog post this morn, but it said it didn't exist. I will try again later.
DeleteHappy Easter!!! Did all the kids get to find lots of eggs at an Easter Egg hunt??? XD
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter! Your comment reminded me of the Easter egg hunts we had at the church when I was little. I had totally forgotten about that. I wonder if the parents did something like that with the kids. I've been so busy, I didn't take note.
DeleteHappy Easter to you and my goodness you have been busy. The kids look so cute and I can see the you now gathering all the kids together. I will have to check with Cara and see if she coming. I know Mr. Dotson said something about it.
ReplyDeleteBrini - Hope you had a wonderful Easter. I was elbow deep in dressing dolls and preparing for the new video. Well I sure hope someone from Brini's Doll Domain can make it. Tell they don't forget the tissues.
DeleteOh, Julian in a tuxedo. He's gonna be sooo cute. Can't wait to see him.
ReplyDeleteOld Joe would like to go. He will have to dress for the occasion, I told him. The Hadleys would like to go as well - if Maud Mavis can find a new hat. She doesn't like to appear in the same hat twice ;-D
Happy Easter to all the Morristown crew! (And of course to the chronicler or their tales, Miss Vanessa (as Mrs. MM Hadley would say).
D7ana - Oooh wee. I can't wait to see Joe. Had I known there was a Right Reverend in our midst, I may have hired him to perform the ceremony. Happy belated Easter to all.
