Wait a Minute...Where is the Wedding Story?

It has been such a whirlwind week that I just realized I never posted a story about Kyle and Jessica's wedding! How can that be? Well...the day was amazing. It was an absolutely beautiful wedding.






I've never seen Jessica more beautiful. She was radiant, simply radiant...and Kyle...oh my Gosh. What an adoring groom!!! Their wedding could not have been MORE beautiful...more memorable. Perhaps I'm just a bit biased!!!



The weather cooperated so we we were able to have an outdoor wedding...just as Jessica planned. And Emily played the violin processional...and it was perfect.



Our Chloe threw rose petals in Jessica's path, followed by the twins Cody and Tyler as the ring bearers. Pop escorted Jessica down the aisle...and Jess...well her smile just beamed!!!! She was so happy...she was the princess Cinderella!!!


After the photo op...the wedding party was introduced and Pop toasted the happy couple. His best advice? Never go to sleep angry. Always take the time to resolve differences. How true, how true. He should know. Pop and Grammy have been married 55 years!!!



And Graeme's tribute to Kyle. I will have to paraphrase...but he said something like Kyle was the nicest guy he has ever known. And he added...he could not imagine a better friend than Kyle. It was touching...and so true.


We danced our legs off. We even had a dance off..thanks to Daniel Rowland. He paired us all up to his liking. Gino danced with Genevieve...I danced with Jareb!!And Melissa even managed to get Johnny out there. It was too funny! Just too funny and fun!!!


The Castle was amazing. And as it turns out it's where Jada Pinkett and Will Smith were married. Who knew? But, I doubt their wedding could possibly have been more fun than Kyle and Jessica's.



We all took the shuttle to the local hotel and the party carried on. But not for me...I had "Chloe Duty." I took my little precious back to my room and we turned in for the night. And in the morning we joined my Mom and Dad, Grandma, Gene and Priscilla and Dick and Linda for breakfast. We also hooked up with Pat and Ed and Melissa.

This wedding was too much fun!
I hated to see it end. And I've decided that my friends and family are so much fun, that we need to have a party every now and then...just because. No reason necessary...just because!!!

Thank you so much for telling us about the wedding!!! I've been checking for days and was so happy when I saw some of the pictures. You truly have been blessed with a wonderful daughter and granddaughter and your son is just beaming with joy!! May God bless their marriage!! Congrats.
... Chloe is adorable and I'm sure you are going to be a "perfect" grandmother. What does she call you? Do you have a "pet" grandma name?
