Grandkids At Wedding

I have been wanting to share about the grandkids at the wedding that seems only weeks ago but guess what?!

It's already been 6 months.

Kristen & Felix's wedding was so wonderful.

All the family together makes for a happy mother.

We all flew out to Texas.

Can you imagine how excited the grandkids were?

They love flying.

They were thrilled to be in Aunt Kristen's wedding!

Add the fact that they were getting a new uncle.

They think Felix is a prince.

They even call him Prince Felix.

Joyful is how I describe the whole occasion.

I have a katrillion pictures.

I thought I'd share a few of my grandkids.

No one looks all too happy in the picture below but I had to document Abigail.

Her dad pointed at his eyes to remind her to look forward.

She cracked us up when she pointed at her eyes and told him to look forward also.

Really funny if you know how weddings 

are not my sons favorite thing. 

Elijah feels like his Pops.

Mark always said he wanted to find the inventor of the tie 

and hang him with it.

I'm not sure how the tie came about but they sure look handsome.

Hope you are having a wonderful week.

We are expected to have cooler here in Florida this weekend.

Halleluiah! 

Love to ALL!

Get Me To The Church On Time

She is married.

My little girl.

A perfect match,

Kristen & Felix met 2 years ago at church.

I couldn't have chose a more perfect son-in-law.

With hearts for the Lord and a deep desire to serve Him and others,

these two couldn't make me more proud.

My cup runneth over.

You know I couldn't wait to post something.

I plan to write more after I go through all the pictures 

and  I come down from this cloud.

I am so blessed!

Wedding Fun

I flew to Florida last week to watch Katie & Chase exchange wedding vows.

From the festivities of the week to the officiate who led the ceremony to the reception,

every detail was carried out with precision.

I was in awe at the "Grace Kelly" style that was carried out even through what the guests chose to wear.

Brenda, Paula and I were privileged to help our friend Kim, who was the MOG (mother of the groom) with the rehearsal dinner.

The combination of being with dear friends,

celebrating a beautiful couple and being able to decorate

made for the perfect weekend.

The venue was in a beautiful old church

in downtown Jacksonville.

This church really didn't require much decorating,

with it's high arched ceiling and plenty of gorgeous stain glass,

it was the perfect location. 

The theme... 

 a rustic, winter-wonderland.

 Kim purchased deer, pheasants, & other animals in which she sprayed silver.

Old oil lanterns were added to each table. 

Galvanized buckets on the tables with navy napkins for drumettes to tide everyone over until dinner began.

I do love a party and this one was 

most enjoyable.

I especially adore this sweet couple.
