back from the missing …

104 

This last little blog break was planned.  Not only did the kids start school yesterday, but we dashed in and out of town for my nephew’s wedding.  Blogging had to take a back seat to that!   My camera is acting up, and my editing software isn’t working properly, so it makes it hard to post photos.   But here is an unedited shot from the wedding. 

I was so young when my nephew was born that we really grew up together.  So it was extra special to see him get married.  It is interesting to travel to different parts of the country and see the wedding customs there.   It definitely was different from a New York wedding, but geez did we dance up a storm and have a ball!  They’re enjoying a honeymoon in Hawaii right now.  With all this rain we’re having, they sure picked the perfect time for it. 

I hope you all had a great holiday weekend and a terrific first day of school for those who started this week!

Best,
Stephanie

  3. It's a beautiful wedding photo Stephanie.

    We find the wedding customs vary within our state. Weddings are always fun. We attended a couple over Summer. Love it.

  7. Congratulations, Just blog hopping and came across yours. I am Greek Orthodox and practice my faith and maybe you are as well.We were married in my church, my husband is Catholic and the children are as well. Loved my childhood with all the culture and passing it on. I don't blog but love and appreciate all the beautiful women and their home blogs, thank you!

  13. Hello dear Stephanie!

    Life is a whirlwind right now for many of us...me going back to school to teach and those of you who are parents and getting the kids into our classrooms! But a wedding always takes off the edge from the busy world to remind us of what makes us human: BONDING IN LOVE.

    ENJOY! Anita

  15. Hi, just ran across your blog and saw this photo and wondered if the wedding was in a Byzantine Rite church? The icons took me back to childhood.
    Many happy years to the young couple!
    Congratulations to them.
