I never though in all my life that I would be helping my slightly younger sister prepare for her wedding. I always thought that I would be the first one of us twins to get married instead it's El. Granted I'm happy for her but I'm supposed to get married first, I'm supposed to have a baby before her and now I don't know what my life is like not being first like I have always been. Tonight it the rehearsal dinner, and tomorrow is her wedding. A Fourth of July wedding at that. She had wanted a Christmas wedding but by that time she would be a mom of newborns and didn't think it would be fun to have twins babies screaming throughout the ceremony while mom and hold them while Elizabeth, Tyler, Luke, Amelia, Hannah, Zola, Bailey, Carrie, Caroline and myself are in the wedding party.
"Lexie did you get the tables reserved for tonight it's really important." Ellis asked me. "Yes El I reserved them over a month ago." I said to my sister. "Okay thank you." She said to me. Tonight I have to practice walking down the aisle with Wally Walters. He likes me but I don't know if I like him or Jerry Adams. Jerry Adams is so sweet, cute, and well I guess memorizing. Wally is the same but I guess I'm not into football players, although I was once a cheerleader but since then I haven't been into football players since Charlie Bellows told me I was dumb and a loser because I wasn't the popular cheerleader and was interested in Ellis more than me. But Wally is a professional football player and makes a lot of money, and Jerry is a soccer player and Bailey's best friend.
"Aunty Wexie I big brother now" Mikey said. "What Mikey." I asked. "I big Brother" Mikey said. "Hey Bailey I have a question for you" I asked him. "Yeah what is it Lexie?" Bailey asked. "Is it true you and Annabelle are having a baby?" I asked my brother. "Did Mikey tell you because it is true but we weren't going to tell anyone about the baby until tonight when we toast to the couple but I guess the news is out." Bailey said. I was happy for my brother and his wife. I was happy that I was going to be an aunt a couple of times this year. Not only did Zola have twins 2 months ago, Ellis having twins around Thanksgiving, and now Bailey having a baby around the New Year. My life is awesome I don't know what my grandmother complains about not being able to know all of her grandchildren's names. Mom and dad know all of their grandchildren because there's Carrie, Caroline, Elliot, Albert, and Mikey.
When I woke up this morning I panicked because I was supposed to be up at 7:00 and it was almost 8:30 Ellis is going to be made at me for this. When I got down stairs she was in the bathroom throwing up with mom rubbing her back. "Ellis are you okay sis." I asked her. "Yeah its just nervousness, and morning sickness." She responded to me. After she was ready I got dressed in my maid of honor dress that is pink, I tied my hair in bun on the side with a lily in my hair. Zola tied her hair the same in her bridesmaids dress which is purple, Hannah, and Amelia also are wearing a purple dress with their hair like Zola, and my hair. Ellis was in a beautiful white gown with her hair in a bun with curls coming down onto her back. Elizabeth had her hair curled with a flower on the side of her head as she only has hair that goes to her shoulder, Carrie and Caroline were also dressed in their flower girl outfits with their hair like Elizabeth.
The wedding was beautiful the ceremony was perfect, and the fireworks at the end of the day were awesome. I loved the day and I think my parents did to. Dad cried giving away Ellis, but he still has Hannah, Amelia, and Elizabeth to spoil until we get married. I actually got a date tomorrow with Jerry Adams, and Wally Walters. Hey if you can't decide from one you might go big. Besides I kind of read one of mom's diaries before both dad and her were married she was dating a vet and dad. So if it worked with her why not me. But I think it might be Wally Walters we had kind of a connection together.
