Flower grrrl
What are these?, I wondered. The story: Claire has been sequestering all the flowers that come into our house, so she can dry them (see clear box under large fish banner) and then carry out series of practice runs as a flower girl in her room. So there's this nymph in St Louis walking back and forth across her room every day dropping flowers with different techniques, because she "wants to do this right for Craig and Grace" (I think this is a good thing, but I wonder if we're being a bit too perfection oriented?). The great news is she's thrilled to get to be part of things, and we're all thrilled to get together in the spring again.

claire is great. i'm sure without all the practice she'd do superb, but glad to hear someone is preparing... we have quite a lot to tackle and it's only now august. :)
we are definitely looking forward to getting everyone together! soon, we'll have some news regarding lodging/etc... once we iron out the details.
That is adorable!
I never doubted Claire will be a beautiful flower girl, but she may have to ease up on the practice or she's going to show me up ; )
We're so excited to have Claire , Riley and Anna in the wedding, and to see all of you!
Dear Grace - Dad and I have been looking at maps of the South and are excited to come to see Jackson. I've been to Memphis (where Riley and I liked seeing the ducks that live in the hotel and Dad liked meeting Elvis's tailor), but not to Mississippi yet, and I think that'll be very fun. PS - No one can show you up.
