Tantrum at Hicks Ranch

This past weekend we headed out to Bandera, TX to the Hicks ranch for Laurel and Jason Blue's wedding..It was a blast..one of the best weddings I have been to! The weather turned out beautiful and made being outside wonderful. They also had the choreographed first dance and father/daughter dance..It was hilarious and awesome..I always said I wanted to go to a wedding that did that..where they start off with a sappy slow dance, then the music scratches and it goes into hip hop dance!! FUN!! I wish I had enough guts and rhythm to do that!! Anyways...We stayed at a cabin overlooking the river...Emma and Georgia loved it!
The rehearsal dinner was at this neat farm. Everyone had boots on..except me and Georgia. Emma made fast friends with the other kids and loved running in circles, blowing bubbles, and getting eachother in trouble.
During the ceremony, Emma had a melt down, her 1st real tantrum..it lasted through the entire ceremony..ended with a spanking in the car and being strapped in her seat for a long quiet time!
We had to cross a bridge to get to the ceremony area..when Emma decided to freak out because I wouldn't let her walk around like she wanted..we didn't even walk over the bridge to high-tail it to the car, we just tromped through the dry river bed. She has had tantrums before, but nothing even close to this..she usual will cry or throw herself down, get a spanking or time out and then is over it..not this time!! It was ugly and embarrassing..I was irrate and let her know it!
We ended the night with lots of dancing and fun, though and stayed with the girls until it ended at midnight!! The lack of pics is because of the tantrum. :(Did I mention Georgia is at the "can we get some crackers for the baby" stage at restaurants!!! YEA!!!
