Only four more days!


This is the week! After months of planning and waiting, Dylan and Kelly are getting married THIS Saturday ... four days from now! This is the card I made them for their wedding. Kelly loves Queen Anne's Lace (I do too ... I'm crazy about this wild flower!). When you take a picture of Queen Anne's Lace from underneath, it turns out looking like fireworks ... and shouldn't marriage kind of be like spectacularly beautiful fireworks?
Last night, we invited Dylan and Kelly over for dinner so that we could give them their wedding gift ~ and it was time for the bride-to-be to have a hair and beauty consultation with our expert family beautician (a.k.a Emily!) ~ Emily and Jeremiah were back in town after being up north at the family cottage! Here are a couple of pictures of the gift opening ...
We got them the Kitchen Aid mixer they especially wanted ... because it's such a practical item to have! Kelly makes a lot of different kinds of breads, and this will be great for mixing the dough.
Baby Jeremiah got in on the gift opening and he helped tear the wrapping paper off ... the pictures of him doing that didn't turn out!

And Grandpa Jones got into the User Manual ... like only Grandpa Jones can!
The girls discussed hair and make-up and then went upstairs and tried a couple of different "do's" on Kelly. It's very nice to have our own private consultant! Emily is going to do all of the girls' hair Saturday morning.

Isn't this a great picture of Emily and Jeremiah?

The next four days are going to fly by. Sabrina, Karis and Jackson arrive late tonight ~ we are so excited to see them! We have a busy few days ahead and then ... the wedding!

You make such beautiful and encouraging cards. My mom and I loved the ones you made for us.

Hope you all can enjoy the next few days, even as they try to whirlwind past. Yay for Godly marriages!
