Wordless (Not Really) Wednesday

Pictures from my daughter Hannah's bridal shower, held this past Saturday, and hosted by my sister Lynn..."the hostess with the mostest"....who I could never, ever, thank enough for such beautiful, life long memories. Hannah and I were so blessed...



Pillars, dripping with fragrant wisteria, at the Avalon Clubhouse, on a storybook April morning...


...and a pile of presents. I mean, a pile!

Our Hannah, with Katie in the background to her right...

Hannah, Katie, and my gorgeous sister, Lynn...(who got all the "great hair genes" in my family genepool. Whoever said life was fair??)


Hannah, reading her hand made card from Katie...


Hannah and her "Wendy Basket"....

I wish I still had a piece of this cake right now...it was that good.




This is part, of just one of the food tables - each one loaded down with delectable things to eat, and lovingly and beautifully appointed with photographs and fresh roses...







A picture of Hannah and her man, on one of the tables...


It was the sort of bridal shower every girl (and her mother) dreams of. I was surrounded by life long friends, my Harvest Church family...plus my beautiful and supportive and loving mother, sister, and aunt...the sun was shining...there was an air of abundance...the fragrance of wisteria perfuming the breezes through the open doors leading to the balcony...and did I mention the veritable pile of presents?


"Father, I thank you..." My heart is so full. Thank you, dear online friends, for sharing these moments with me, via my blog!

Dreams coming true for you and Hannah!...
