Wedding Photos Show and Tell

When your children get engaged you start to not only think about their wedding, you also reminisce about your own wedding. JRQ's soon-to-be-in-laws posted an update and photo about their wedding 33 years ago. I got a kick out of seeing their wedding photo. It felt like I was being allowed to peak into their past and see one of the first building blocks of their life.

In honor of this type of exchange, I'm displaying a few photo's of our wedding. I hope you will see this as a gentle gift exchange in honor of having our families become better acquainted and learning more of our past and heritage.

A wedding can be a moment where you declare not only your love, but you let others share in this moment of celebration. This is where you begin to blend and weave two hearts, two lives, and two families together.

This is how our marriage began.

Shirley (JRQ's grandma) helped plan the party.
Here she is with Emily (JRQ's cousin) who also performed at the reception.
We had a blast at our wedding and enjoyed sharing and celebrating with many family and friends.

These are the brilliant (or sometimes crappy) things I blog about
