Wedding to be continued.....

Part two of my niece's wedding pictures (only because the pictures weren't uploaded for volume one).  Wedding luncheon was held at Maddox restaurant....DELICIOUS is about all that can be said.  The reception was held in my brother's back yard and I must say the weather was beautiful for the evening.

        Tears, tears, tears those are the only words for the gift Ashley gave my mother.  Let me go back in time for a moment.  At my father's funeral, the grand kids made duct tape roses with grabber screws as the stems.  My dad always said he could fix anything with duct tape and grabber screws.  In Ashley's bouquet she had placed a white duct tape rose and in Grandma's a duct tape rose as well. 

And finally for the snail and turtle.  These were two lawn ornaments that Ashley did NOT want in the yard at her reception.  Neil and I were given the responsibility to place the said lawn ornaments through out the reception to make sure Ashley knew they had attended the festivities.....we had fun!

Ashley found the turtle on the car!

One last picture!  I decided to try the freezer paper stencil technique with my silhouette machine.  I needed a project to experiment with and came up with this t-shirt for my niece....all in fun all in fun!
