It seems surreal that just a year ago my daughter and I were enjoying the quiet interlude prior to wedding day. All our preparations were complete! Weather reports were promising. Anticipation was palpable, ripe and sweet like fall apples. Nothing was left but to pray for sunshine and stand by our motto...No fretting allowed!
How those "small" to do lists grow to exponential size, because of course this was going to be a simple family affair, is beyond me! But the great miracle is that through com laborare, working together, it really does ALL get done.
We had a fantastic team of friends, family and professionals who worked together with an enthusiastic can do spirit, and the whole thing was a wonderful success. It's a lot like marriage itself as I think about it...a beautiful marriage is guaranteed when each one does their best to make that relationship one worth cherishing over a lifetime!
Recently, I enjoyed collaborating with my friend, Lauren Matthews, a talented photographer (and Latin teacher extraordinaire) to capture some shots from one of my wedding previews.
Many thanks to Lauren for sharing her gifts, and here's to joyful, fun filled celebrations, and long happy marriages to couples tying the knot this fall.
