Flower Girl

Aragorn's brother is getting married in a little over 2 weeks! Eleanor is a flower girl so yesterday we tried on her garb.

When preparing a family of 11 for a wedding, there is something extremely lop-sided:

Mom's Plan:

Carefully laid out in a notebook or binder in chart format with checkmark boxes after many hours of careful planning as to what time we have to leave, when and where to dress 9 children, will we need to stop for a bathroom break, when and where do we eat breakfast and lunch...

Aragorn: Suit Coat, Shirt, tie, PANTS, belt, shoes, socks........

Aragorn's Wife: Skirt, Shirt, shoes, socks...........

3 Girls: Dresses, Shoes, Socks, Brush, Poo-boos (what to do with that hair?)......

1 Flower Girl: Dress, Shrug, Shoes, Socks, Gloves, Basket (what to do with that hair?).........

2 Big Boys: Suit Coats, Shirts, Ties, PANTS, belt, shoes, socks, brush..........

Dad's Plan:

"My wife set out my suit, need to shave, got my car keys and the GPS, what else is there?!"
