Back in August, our cousin Dana married her fire fighting fiance, Justin. Ally was one the the flower girls (she also refused to walk down the aisle).
Ally's cousin Charlie was one of the ring bearers.
Ally a few hours before the ceremony started. Dana and Justin's wedding reception was like something out of a movie. It was in the Grand Ballroom at the Crown Plaza Hotel. It was absolutely beautiful. Why, then do I not have any pictures from the reception? Because I lost my camera! Much to my relief, the people at the church found it a few days later. The Previous Night
After the wedding rehearsal, Grandpa Rader came to the church so I could go to the rehearsal dinner and enjoy some kid-free time. Grandpa's truck was in the shop, so he borrowed one from one of the guys that works at his store. After he got Ally strapped into the carseat and closed the passenger side door he went around to the driver's side to get in the truck. The door was locked and the keys were in the truck. Had he had his truck, he would have just called OnStar and they would have unlocked the doors. Since the truck was a loner, we had to call the fire department!
Ally sitting in the locked truck....At least she had a snack (she also had a sippy cup with water). She didn't start crying until she dropped the gold fish crackers.
Here comes the fire truck. They came with thier lights flashing and their sirens blaring. Since we were in downtown Indy, the trucks have the super long ladders for the taller buildings.
The guys from Ladder 13 working hard to free my baby. There were 2 other guys working on getting the the driver's side door open. They said that they like to race and see who can get their door open the fastest.
The ordeal is over! The passenger side "team" was able to get their door open the fastest. Here we are with the winning team.
