They're married!

It's been a busy week, but it ended with a beautiful wedding! The weather although warm was gorgeous, had a few very minor glitches, nothing serious, the M-O-B's dress fit, got tons of compliments, the wedding party looked smashing, the kids did great in their part, the flower girls were normal delightful 2, 3 & 2-4 yr olds, that did make it up the isle, walked around in front, sat down in their chairs, stood up, headed back down the isle...and no one cared! The singing was beautiful (Floyd's brother who is in the work wrote the song).
I had an awesome crew of helpers. Both before, during and after the wedding & reception.
The bride & groom looked beautiful/handsome & happy.
What more could we ask??
Anyway, we all survived with smiles, happy hearts & sore feet.
We didn't have to clean up tonight, we put food away & came back to the house. We'll go out to the building tomorrow & eat all the leftover food & cake (& probably enjoy it more while we're relaxed)
and we have the afternoon to clean up the building. Since it's a holiday Monday, we're not heading home till then. WOO HOO!
Thanks for all your thoughts & wishes, we had a wonderful day! We're looking forward to an extra special LARGE meeting tomorrow with other guests who stayed in town!
(& yes, of course you'll be seeing pictures :*)

    Well, we did do a ton of work, but we had so much help! It was honestly so worth it, so fun! Thursday night was the worst, but by Friday after sleeping in a bit we were revived & a good nights sleep Friday we were good again. We had such awesome help thru the whole thing that it kept everything in control, and I did not feel overwhelmed thru it all!
