Early Morning Weeder

When our youngest son, Dalan told us that he and his fiancé, Sam (Short for Samantha) wanted to be married in the gardens of our Highland home I was elated.

After all, three of our children have been married there.

We still own this home, and he rents it from us.

The first year after we moved I maintained the gardens.  This year I decided it was just too much and to let my son take the wheel.

Now, I’m not boasting; but over the years this home has won two Highland Fling garden awards and was featured in two garden tours.

He really had done a pretty good job, but
OH, MAMA has been away too long!

The backyard didn’t require much, but the front needed a little TLC.

So, as of late; I have become an early morning weeder.  You know how some people like to wake up early and read a bit?  Same idea only I weed, and edge.

After about 20 hrs. the old place didn’t look too bad.

The wedding was wonderful, and the Bride and Groom stunning!

It’s legal folks!

Little man, Jack was so handsome in his tux!

There are way more pics. I will be sharing.

But here’s a bit of the décor.

Sam’s cousin, Heather took her pictures.  Look at some of these gorgeous bridals.

These were taken in the Salt Lake State Capital Building.

It was a wonderful evening!

Old Man Wind blew frightfully hard for a few minutes and we had dark clouds with a tiny sprinkle or two.

Then the grey skies turned to blue and the air was ever so still.

I so enjoyed seeing old neighbors, family and friends.  What a joyous occasion!
