A Fairy Tale Wedding

Uncle Chris was pooped after his daughter's wedding
Jake & Amber were also pooped :-)
Leaving in the BMW
The shovel said "Gold digger"
We had a little dance off competition where we chanted everyone's name while they did their best dance in the middle. This was Lindsey and Patrick showing us what they had.
Trying to get a good cousin picture...it was rather hard. Hopefully someone else got a better picture than me!
A lovely karaoke song "The Titanic" by Charis, Chara and Kimberly
Papa and Chesed dancing. I danced with him earlier in the night and he said he hadn't danced since my wedding. That was one of my most special memories of my wedding was dancing with my Papas!!

Josh & I with the Bride & Groom
Yep they caught the garter and bouquet :-)
Auntie thought it would be funny to line the garter with foam rubber since Patrick HATES the feel of foam rubber, it makes him gag. She also put his spare BMW key on it which he obsessed about until Chesed told him she had it.
Taking off the garter
It was a close match but Chara beat Shara out to catch the bouquet

Doing a sugar scrub for nice, soft and supple skin! She did this for me the night before my wedding.
Sleeping like a log the morning of the wedding! This past weekend my cousin and best friend got married. I am so happy for her and Patrick. It was a wonderful weekend, a beautiful wedding, and a really fun reception with lots of yummy food. While we were growing up together, Chesed always believed in fairy tales, love at first sight, and happily ever after. I am so excited that she found her Prince Charming, and I hope they live happily ever after! Love you, Chesed & Patrick!!!
