The wedding photos will have to wait. I was so busy being mother of the groom I didn't get the shots I wanted.
Now down to the real business of the day-the draw was very scientific, I had a scientist stick his paw into a bowl of rolled up strips of paper and pull out....
The winner of a pendant is Tammy at Casa Mariposa. Although I would love for all of you to have won, it is fitting it goes to CM, the first blog I began reading when I entered blogging world. Her blog is informative (this gal knows her stuff), very funny and sometimes equally moving.
On my list today-inspect the fruit trees for tent caterpillar egg sacs and watch as much of the Olympics as time allows.
Did you notice how fast the day went? Congratulations to the happy couple and to you, the new mother-in-law. It is a nice title to have, no matter the jokes that have been said. I will be looking forward to seeing some pictures.
ReplyDeleteI am not a night owl but even the late hours flew by. I am very lucky, my kids have married very nice people.
DeleteIt sounds like a beautiful day and a fabulous wedding! I love that his sister was his best woman. Thanks so much for the pendant. :o)
ReplyDeleteYes they were and are very tight. I'm still learning about escapades from almost thirty years ago.
DeleteYAY Tammy!!!! And my goodness is that the most touching story about your son and your daughter! And how cool to have hand made hats for the bride and groom! SO glad the wedding was wonderful!!! I can't wait to see pictures! Nicole xoxo
ReplyDeleteThe knitter is an absolute sweetheart.
DeleteSo pleased that you had a wonderful wedding day - and big congratulations to Tammy. Enjoy watching more of the Olympics.
ReplyDeleteI must check how the Brits are doing.
DeleteCongratulations Casa!
ReplyDeleteOh how beautiful ....sounds so like such a wonderful day and night before for both families. Congrats on a new son in law.
ReplyDeleteActually I have a new daughter in law. My old son in law is a sweetheart.
DeleteIt sounds like a wonderful wedding! Lovely to learn about another brother and sister with such a loving relationship. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteI lucked out. They were such sweet natured kids.
DeleteDear Susan,
ReplyDeleteIt doe indeed sound as if it was a wonderful wedding. I laughed when you wrote about being mother of the groom. I remember my own mother (in her role of mother-of-the-bride) rushing around a lot at my sisters' weddings.

PS
I do like the photograph you are using as your banner.
I have to admit to being very anxious. The banner photo is the view from my back door. I count my blessings every day.
DeleteCongratulations to you and to your son for the wedding. It seemed like it was a fun wedding. Will be waiting for the pictures.
ReplyDeleteHi Jan, I'm a late-comer from the GYB party but I wanted to thank you for joining my blog. I am touched by your blog posts - your children are so sweet and I'm so glad I followed you back here. Cindy from TheCranesNest.com
ReplyDeleteHi Susan, I haven't visited for a while, but congrats on the wedding and so pleased it went well. Lovely that your kids are so close. Reading about skating on a river makes me feel envious. I only did it once - in upstate New York, and it was heaven, so much better than a rink. And congrats to Tammy!
