This has been the most wonderful of weekends....I am going to have to keep my eyes and ears open, though, as now I know just how good Ken is at keeping secrets!! We had planned our wedding for Saturday and I knew my son was coming from California, but didn't know that he would show up with Kara and the baby and my daughter, from Virginia....who rounded out the complete surprise! Can you imagine? The fact that I am blessed to have found such a wonderful man to share my life with is wonderful.....the fact that my kids love him and he loves them....well that's just frosting on the wedding cake! My family now includes three new sons, too, and a prouder Dad could not be found! It's easy to love a man who speaks of his sons with such love....and respect!
It was a glorious day!! The weather co-operated, our families were around us, our friends gathered to celebrate with us....what could have been a better way to rejoice two people having found one another? The pig roast and harvest pot-luck was scrumptious.....SO MUCH FOOD! Friends, old and new, came to enjoy the festivities and just the beauty of the day! We even had some kids...and adults....carving pumpkins!! I loved it! Sometimes it takes a gathering like this to make you open your eyes and see just how lucky you are.....family and friends....what else is there? Be sure to give YOUR loved one a hug and REMIND them they are loved....and that they are, indeed, special to you. Never take them for granted.....life can change in the blink of an eye....CELEBRATE your love of family....and friends!
I hope you enjoy just a few photos....indulge me ;-)
