Welcome to installment two of the Tyra and Josh Wedding Story. I wish this first shot would have turned out better. This is the country club where the ring ceremony was. Everyone try to imagine Josh and Tyra standing under the archway. Now try to imagine that you can see clearly out the huge windows and see the fog slowly coming in across the water. Here again you can also see the beautiful white swags and white Christmas lights. The whole thing was so gorgeous and frankly you could not pay for ambiance like that.
These next pictures are from the reception. Look at the doting Grandpa and Grandma Leeman. Lauren was so well behaved. She enjoyed the food and the party and dancing with her dad.
This is just a quick shot of the Wheadon family. Here they are all alert which turns into quite a different story later on in the evening.
Here is the lower part of the centerpiece at our table. The colors went so well together and the whole room smelled like the stargazer lilies that were in the centerpieces. I hope this is what heaven smells like.
I have to say that I love the camera that Matt gave me for the birthday. It has this flip out screen which allows us to take pictures of ourselves.
This is the picture that we had as one of the decorations on our table. Matt took a picture of a picture and it turned out pretty well.
This is my best shot of the gorgeous reception. I wish that a photo could do it justice. The ceiling had beautiful white swags with white Christmas lights in them. You can also see Tyra singing "Someone Like You" to Josh. She did a fabulous job. It was very touching. True confessions Meghan Frost and I cried all over the table while she was singing. At least someone else is as sentimental as I am.
Tyra and Josh like to ride in style in this classic Rolls Royce complete with driver. Talk about an exit!
These last pictures are from the airport. Here is Ava chomping down on her all "natural" cheese cracker. Yummy! She looks like she is enjoying it. Maybe she should share some with her dad?
Here is Morgan looking for her new pathway to run. Morgan is a very mobile woman. I think she should be nicknamed "The Dart."
If you set this girl down on the floor she is off and running full speed ahead. She certaintly kept her mom busy this weekend, but who could resist a face like that. Thanks Tyra, Josh and Sampson family for a great weekend. We can't wait to get together again soon.
Happy Halloween! Here is the adorable James Pope mingling with the guests or trying to steal something off the table at the Michelle Brown and Andrea Pope Halloween party. Matt and I enjoyed some great food and some "thrilling" rounds of Bingo.
Mmmm Good. Here we are as the happy M&M couple. Thanks to Reed and Sarah for lending us the great costumes.
ARGHH! Pierce and Michelle as the pirate couple. It is a good thing they each have one good eye.
What do you get when you cross an M& M and a pirate?
Introducing the world famous paddle ball champions Krys and Julianne Johnson. Please note the fierce intensity in their faces.
Avast me hearties: Here are Shaun and Andrea Pope with their pint size pirate James.
