Amelia the Flower Girl...almost

Nicole's cousins. Stacey and Trisha Nakano recently had a joint wedding and asked Amelia to be one of the flower girls. Of course Mommy and Daddy willingly agreed, knowing that Amelia would probably love the attention of walking down the aisle. All the flower girls were given the same beautiful dresses to wear. Our little Amelia however decided long before the wedding that this gown was not something she wanted to wear. Over the next few weeks before the wedding day, we tried repeatedly to have her try it on, and she refused, kicking and screaming. Our last hope was that she would see the other flower girls and realize how pretty it was to wear. In the dressing room, with the other girls, Amelia put her gown on, but then realized what she was wearing and proceeded to try to rip it off. Luckily, we brought a "backup" dress which became our saving grace. As you can see, it's not quite the same, but I'm sure the brides preferred a different dress over a screaming flower girl.
