Another Chapter

Weddings bring another chapter into our lives with joy and celebration. We were filled with gratitude and joy, to be able to celebrate with those we call our family.

Over Labor Day, we were in San Diego, as dear friends wed with an exceptional life story. It was a joyful, fun, one of a kind wedding.

Then we zipped home for the start of the school year and to pull a few more weeds before ‘our‘ wedding here at Glory Farm.

Number One Wife took this beautiful photo on the morning of the wedding and sent it to her brother The Groom/Number Four Son.

Another chapter in his life was about to begin and wonderful memories in ours of a special wedding and weekend filled with joy.

My Boys

Just before the wedding, THE Granddaughter (one of the ring bearers) smashed her lip on the edge of the table, the horse of honor sneezed horse buggers on the bride and Number One’s dog threw up in the kitchen. Real life was in session.

I had a new bracelet to wear, especially made for me by THE Grandson. I wore it proudly and with joy.

The wedding was sweet and short, which was their desire.

I do love these boys.

The bride is beautiful, inside and out.

Our bride

I have few pictures of this chapter, because it is really not my story to tell. I purposely left my phone in the house, leaving me free to experience and enjoy. It wasn’t our production, it was only our stage.

I had brought home for the weekend, one of my favorite books, “My Father’s Dragon”. It is a wonderful read aloud and perfect first chapter book, I hoped to start it with THE Grandson.

First Chapter Book

Both Grandchildren were enthralled by this delightful book, ‘another chapter’ became their plea. We finished the book in two days with a wedding in between….

and we are blessed.
