Spectacular! *crossing fingers* for perfect weather go to with your beautiful garden... we'll hope the sun, the flowers, the bees, etc. all cooperate, but the most important thing of course is the joyful occasion itself! I hope your daughter has a glorious wedding celebration, with nonstop smiles all around!

Be sure to cut the grass far enough ahead so it wont stain all the white shoes and dress tails!!

How beautiful Genie! All that pretty green and lovely flowers is going to be the perfect backdrop for the beautiful bride in her white gown! I'm sure you're going to post some pictures of the wedding for us afterward? Looking forward to it. Hoping and praying the day is just perfect all the way around and that your daughter and new SIL have a long, wonderful and very happy marriage.

Obviously this is late, but she'll never forget the gift you gave/made for her. A labor of love that she'll cherish forever.

Good job!

Well, we did it! The weather was great and the garden was gorgeous and everybody had a wonderful time!
I posted some pictures to a new thread titled Wedding Pictures. I don't know how to make it a link, but copying and pasting worked.

Here's a picture of my daughter and her new husband!

Yes, that middle one is my most favorite too! They're so fun-loving and happy! I've got that one as my desktop background.
I've added more pictures to the "Wedding Pictures" thread. Here's another.

The hula hoops were very popular! Even my husband tried -- not with much success. Some of the children, tho were great. This little one's name is Charlotte, daughter of one of Laura's friends. She's spinning two!

Did you have hair like that once? The bride's hair is beautiful.

No, I'm afraid not. Mine has always been dark brown. Laura and Jen get their blond-ness from my husband's family. Lots of little blond babies in that family. Laura's hair was nearly white when she was a kid.
Here's a pic of her at about age 5. She'd shoot me if she knew I was putting it online.

wow - her hair was beautiful.

You need to make her new husband a mouse pad with that photo --you can send it to Walmart and for less than 10 dollars they will make it up.
