A Pink Wedding

Celebrating Pink Saturday and a Happy Couple!
If you have seen the movie Fireproof then you understand the salt shakers on top of the cake.
Isn't that cute?
Revealing Mr. and Mrs.
To capture the look of love on your child's face ....priceless
To know that it is towards the daughter-in-law you have been praying for.
beyond priceless!!


My husband the Rev. Capt. Dave married them.
This was awesome!



And there you have it.

A Pretty Pink Wedding

On Pink Saturday.

Soon to be revealed

I think this is going to make a great Pink Saturday post. So this is just a tease until then.

There's going to be a wedding, but first you must be sister approved!

I believe that this was the face of my little girl as she was told that she was going to be a big sister.
However once that little brother was here she became a little mother.
No need for baby dolls with her.
She had her very own.
And she grew up watching over her brother. Bossing him here and there through life.
However, there is one thing you can't boss a brother around with and that is love.
So needless to say this whirlwind engagement has caused "Big Sister" some concern.
A Facebook Romance????
Mom, what if????
So it was time to have a little tea party.
I'm not so sure this is the generation for tea parties but hey....one day they will think back to this special time together. Right?
Recently I found something while going through an old box of pictures and papers.
So it set the theme for my tea party.
It was a little book that had been handed down from mother to daughter over 100 years ago.
It was called a Bridal Bouquet.
And it held the sweetest story called the Advise of an Irish Fairy.
Has anyone heard this story? It is precious.
So I read it to my girls as they had their little tea party.

And we are going to start a tradition of passing down this little bridal book.
I think my Great-Great-Great Grandmother would approve. Don't you?
Now if only we can just get big sister to.

An Engagement Ring

Imagine our surprise when our son who is stationed in Hawaii told us that he was going to
become engaged. Why surprised, you might ask. Well, this engagement
is to a girl that he has known since the 5th grade but they have never dated.
It started in October last year.
He is stationed in Hawaii and she lives in Tampa and the two of them
started talking on Facebook. And they fell in love with each other over the internet.

He is home on leave and he got down on his knee and asked her to marry him within
hours of coming home.

And then he swept her away on his white horse and they will live happily ever after.

Her home is adorable and you will be in heaven lingering over the pictures that Jennifer has posted. And then there is Jennifer.....another talented lady that I am sure if you don't already know is working on a cottage that I am sure will have us all sighing when she finally reveals it.
