Home, safe and sound! Whew! We traveled over 900 miles in less than 36 hours. The wedding was beautiful, and we are so glad that we were able to go. Jeanette and Bill are both very musical so the wedding was filled with lots of instrumental music as well as songs. She surprised him and sang a song to him right after her father gave her away. She sang, "I Will Marry My Best Friend". It was so great to be able to see everyone again, and to be with Paul parents. Here is a picture of Mr. and Mrs. Bill
Wieserman!!!! Congratulations to them both!
Here is a picture of Jeanette's whole immediate family: top row, Daniel, Joel and Joli (she is married to Tim
Dendler). Bottom row: Rev. Daniel
Heckman, Jeanette, Bill and Sharon
Heckman. The
Heckman's were our pastor when we lived in upstate New York. We grew to be wonderful friends, and have so appreciated their lives and the opportunity to know them. We love them very much. They are a wonderful family. Daniel is in college now studying to be an electrical engineer, Joel is now in High School (doesn't seem possible), and Joli has two little boys, ages 3 and one. They are adorable.
Her cake was beautiful and the reception was lovely. Everything was delicious!
Here is a picture of the groom with my two handsome princes, someday (quicker than I realize, I'm sure) they'll be groom's at their own weddings. I'm treasuring these days while I have them at home.
Saturday morning we were able to have breakfast with Paul's parents and the
Heckman's. We had a wonderful visit. There certainly is nothing like being part of the family of God. Friendship are formed that will last forever. We arrived home about 8:00 p.m. last night. Shortly after we go home,
DaNae said: "It is so good to be home. There is just no place like home, because at home you can do all of those fun things that you like to do, and you can go to the bathroom when you need to, instead of waiting in the van for three hours to stop at a gas station". Leave it to her, she's very descriptive, and I guess, for now, that's what HOME means to her :). Here is a picture of her with Jeanette.
I am home this morning from church because Jonathan was up in the night sick. He is feeling better now, and we're planning to go to church tonight. I don't usually blog on Sunday morning, but since I was home and had a little "down time", I thought I'd post. Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday tomorrow. Paul is heading up a work day at our church, re-landscaping our church. I'll plan to post pictures of that project later. Have a marvelous Labor Day.
