One of my neighbors just got “married” this week. She was married 20 years ago wearing a tie-died t-shirt by a justice of the peace. Well, four kids later, her minister spoke about a “church blessing of a civil marriage.” It sounded dignified and meaningful, not like a silly wedding wannabe, so she decided to go for it, with all of her kids taking part. This morning I ran into her on my morning walk and she introduced me to her mother. “Ah,” I said, “Mother of the bride?” “Exactly,” she said, beaming. There are moments in a mom’s life that are always a blessing.

Oh, cool! Celebrating where life has taken them in the good choices they made in choosing each other back then. I like that!

Was Diana a King by any chance because she sure looks like she came from the same family tree I fell out of 😉

Love your Potomac ideas, although I always think it looks sort of greenish. (I went over it in a car just a couple of days ago, in the panhandle of Maryland/West Virginia. It’s definitely still there!)

I am so looking forward to some drippy Meyer juice….oh, and the professor now has another option…in Winnipeg. So many opportunities. So little time to decide….

Meyer Lemons through the mail…That could be interesting esp if they get squished:-) Con stance looks loovely as does the Mother of the Bride shawl!

Love both shawls, just gorgeous! I need some more pink yarn so I can knit one for me this time. That canoe story is so ‘me’, I can absolutely see myself being stubborn enough to do the same exact thing, and laughing at yourself is always a good adventure!

Thank you for the peek at your blue Mother of the groom shawl! I love the pattern & the sentimental connections! The white one is gorgeous, too.

This is the one I want to make . . . the Constance shawl, the design looks like kites and my hubby and I met at what was scheduled to be a kite flying event . . . the wind never materialized but romance did after a while.
