It's Time for the Wedding!

This was our first "destination wedding" and it was wonderful! Many family members and the wedding party began arriving on Wednesday, March 7th, and most stayed through Sunday, March 11th. It was so nice to have four days to spend together hanging out, catching up, and getting to know new friends. At last it was Friday afternoon...time for the wedding! Mark and Blaire were blessed with a beautiful spring day. I don't think the sky could have been any bluer. Thank you Lord!

It was getting dark, but I had to get a picture with my good friend, Susan. We went to high school together...back in the 70's!! Now we are mothers, and yes, even grandmothers. How fun!

It was a wonderful day from start to finish and we were so happy to be a part of the festivities. Our congratulations to Mark and Blaire!
