The Wedding!

I really do love weddings. Two people, standing before the Lord and witnesses, declaring their love for a lifetime. On Saturday, May 14th, our family gathered for the wedding of my oldest nephew Ben and his fiance Alli. It was a beautiful ceremony and we are all thrilled to have Alli join the Stout clan. What a gorgeous bride she was!

 It was fun to be back in Orlando, chat with lifelong friends, and have cousins meet little Emery for the first time.

The reception, however, was where the real party started! From the youngest to the oldest, the gathering spot was definitely the dance floor, and good times were had by all...especially little Samantha, Addyson and Samuel!

The youngest attendee can't dance quite yet, so she was just chillin' with Mommy.

Because Ernie can't sit comfortably, he has gotten good about figuring out a way to lie down! During a break from all the dancing, Natalie visited with her Grandpa. What a cutie she is with those big blue eyes and beautiful curls.

The wedding was a wonderful opportunity for my mother to be with two of her three living sisters, Ruthie and CC. I love these ladies!

Our time together seemed to pass by all too quickly and with the holding of little ones I didn't get pictures of everyone, but it sure was great to see our extended family again!



Happy parents of the groom, my brother Johnny and his wife JoAnn
