Sam & Mike's Wedding

On Saturday, November 1st, Rob's cousin Samantha was married to Mike. Dorothy's cousin Grace was the flower girl. The reception was really lovely and well-planned. It looked like they had as many guests as we had at our wedding (maybe even more), so it was nice and BIG!

The last time we were in New York was Easter (March 2008) and folks couldn't believe how much Dorothy had grown since then. Here are some photos from the reception. She was slightly overwhelmed by the noise and the number of people at the huge reception, so it was difficult to get her to smile.

Momentarily sharing the dance floor with her ADORABLE cousin Ethan, who is just 3 months younger than she is.

If anyone was going to coax a smile from her, it was likely to be Gracie (with help from Grandma O'Brien)

The happy couple as they are introduced - Mr. and Mrs. Michael Maslanik!
