Thank God the wedding is over....

It has been such a wild month for me! My son, Justin, and Rachel (Rei), got married last Saturday afternoon. Her US National Guard assignment was moved up until July 27th. That gave about 2 weeks to plan and execute a wedding!

Anyway, it got done, on a budget, and turned me into a wind-up maniac! ^_^. It was pretty, small, done in black, silver, burgundy, and white.

Thankfully, my wife-in-law, my son's father's wife, helped me with food. I know it's tradition for the bride's family to put on the dog, but in this case it was left up to me...

Rei is now in reception and is to be sent to Fort Jackson, SC for a number of months. Of course, we don't know just yet when/if she will be deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan.

Our quilt meeting is Monday night, and I am for one, looking for a relaxing night!

Williamsburg, VA

We arrived safely there and back. It is such a beautiful place. However, it was the hottest June on record, and the day we went to Colonial Williamsburg it was still 100 degrees at 5pm!

The next day we went to Busch Gardens. It was not at all what I expected. Beautiful flowers, clean park, nice attendants. And to beat it all, the guys got me on a roller coaster! They didn't believe I'd get on it ^.^

I hope to get the pix uploaded soon.
