Esther and I traveled to Philadelphia last weekend for Christina and Peters' wedding. Christina lived on the top floor of the DC house that Esther and I shared and we've stayed in touch over the years. We were there when she and Peter started dating, so you can say we've seen it from the beginning. It was at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, specifically the Children's museum. They are really sweet kids at heart, and managed to put together the classiest, yet most kid like wedding I've ever seen. They were engaged on the carousel at Disneyland, and married in front of a carousel in the museum, then took it for a ride, before all the guests joined in. The reception was in this grand room in the museum with cocktail tables set up that had games at each table. We chose Jenga. There were play cars, buses, etc. so you'll see some very random/hilarious photos that don't normally come from weddings. Needless to say we had a blast as did the happy couple. (I accidentally posted them in the reverse order, just FYI).

The bride and groom have their first dance in front of a recreation of the Statue of Liberty's torch
Saying vows in front of the carousel
There's really no explanation for this one...
Haha, just kidding
Esther was saying how beautiful all the lights on the Carousel were and how perfect everyone looked riding it, so I had to throw a wrench in the mix with this decidely un-beautiful face
Remember Ivy? She lived in the DC house too and took Becky's spot in the triathlon when Gavin was on the way. That was her first race and she recently completed a half-Ironman!!
Esther's boyfriend, Yang, had lunch with Esther and I in Chinatown, NY before we caught the bus to Philly. I don't remember why we're making those faces....goofing around I'm sure.
