A Reason to Celebrate
Today Chris and I celebrate two annual milestones; Fathers Day and our Seventh Wedding Anniversary!
Lets set the scene......
Las Vegas in June a small wedding party, a surprisingly large crowd of friends and family gathered in the Chapel of the MGM Grand. I barely fit into my wedding gown, the best man forgot my ring and my oldest sister and her family barely make it off a delayed flight with literally moments to spare before I walk down the aisle. My 4 yr old niece is hugging me tightly with wet underwear b/c she wet herself on the plane, if they had stopped to change her they would have missed the ceremony, she never complained......The pastor realizes we have no ring for the bride and informs us in the womans dressing room. My oldest sister rushes to take off her back up ring and gives it to the pastor....What luck , my sister having her wedding ring AND back up ring on at the same time ;)
Show Time! Both of my parents walk me down the isle to a very excited Groom. the ceremony was 12 mins. long.....We have it all on video and lots of photographs.
Out of 5 kids and 6 weddings we always talk about mine. It was very memorable indeed, not to mention that it was a vacation for eveyone! I guess thats what makes it so special.......
Today we also celebrate the unconditional love of a Father. Thanks Dad for always supporting me and my decsions.
And thank you Chris for being the wonderful adoring father that you are to our children!

Happy anniversary! Nothing ever goes exactly as planned at a wedding. Fun memories now. Happy father's day to all the dads out there too.
Happy Anniversary! We were married in Vegas too. Everyone who attended said it was the most fun they had ever had at a wedding. Soooooo much fun and the DVD is fun to watch and relive it over and over again. Great pictures of your Father and the Father of you children. I miss when my kids were that age. Embrace the time and take pictures because they grow so fast.
