A Wedding- So much Fun!

The theme of Katie's wedding was, "Let's all have Fun and all of it, well almost all of it, was fun.
Her colors were pink and green. They are such  brilliant and vibrant colors. All of the bridal party looked lovely. I do think that Lita and Jono were the best couple.

Jodie took the pictures and Kim Shrum helped with the reception and decorations. It all looked lovely from the church to the fellowship hall.

Before the wedding I was making bead socks. These are time consuming and yet fun to make. Shades of when Katie and Lita were little girls. I crocheted 7 pairs. They are made with white socks, pink or green cotton thread, and pony beads, naturally pink and green ones.

 Look at how happy we look! Well, some of us. Anyway, I am so happy for Dustin and Katie. It was a great time.  We had doughnuts and dancing and a photo booth so....the reception was lots of fun!

Well,
 It wasn't a picnic and from March 20 to March 26 I had to keep reminding myself only a few more days. The Tuesday after Jo Ann left Mom-law fell and broke her hip. Oh, my what a nightmare! Emergency room, hospital room, ICU, caring for Sam, all of it was such a challenge. But the doctors were excellent, and the ICU care was good.  Mom-law made it through surgery, with 2 blood transfusions, and Jo Ann did come back from Cuba, though a day late. I am thankful that she did live, by the grace of God. I am thankful that my family and friends prayed, and that the doctors were so careful with her both in surgery and recovery. God is good all the time. It wasn't what I had expected,  but  Jo Ann's experience made it all worth it.
