A Perfect Day to get Married

 Load up the van, it's time to head to Lindsay and Dan's wedding.

 A very proud father of the bride walking his daughter down the aisle.

 Mark caught the first kiss as husband and wife on the camera.

The reception took place at Emerson Park on Otsego Lake (one of the Finger Lakes)

cutting the cake-there was NO cake smearing here--way to go Ida and Andrew
Pat and I also took this opportunity to take a picture together--we don't look too bad after 23 years and 10 kids.
We also took this opportunity to take a family photo-all ten kids-and all looking good!

Wedding Cake-Becky's latest

It has been delivered safe and sound after many hours of work.
Now Becky is ready to enjoy her position as Maid of Honor in her best friends wedding tomorrow. Pictures to follow......

A Day of Blessings

Pat and I were honored to spend our 22nd wedding anniversary celebrating the blessing of Stacy and Paul's marriage in the Catholic Church.

It was absolutely beautiful.

I pray that God will bless this wonderful family for many, many years to come.

Jenny and Sue provided lovely music during the service.

Stacy, Paul, Ava, and Brendan with Grandma and Grandpa H.

I was great to see all the babies and children that I don't see nearly enough. Above is Elsie Rae of Elsie Rae of Sunshine fame.

Brendan is usually much happier, as can be seen at Ave Elizabeth and Brendan James.

Here is my sister, Sue, also known very well as Grandma G, with Emmy. You can catch up on Emmy and her sister's at My Three Girls.
My nieces Jessie and Cassie
Georgia and Grandpa H.
Georgia entertained us with her great singing, along with Rick and Jenny. I hear that we missed some of the other kids singing and I am very sorry about that. We have to have another party again soon so that we can hear the whole concert!
Brendan knows that the parties over!!
