Mud, Memories and More...

I thought he looked very nice in his suit and tie.


                         ~  MEMORIES ~



Daddy and Grandma Doris
                                A few weeks ago my family and I were very happy to see my Aunt Theresa married to a good christian man.
( Keep in mind that I have two Aunt Theresas, this ones on my Daddies side. c ; ) 
  And my father had the honor of walking both her and their Mother ( my Grandma Doris ) down the isle.






                 It was a nice, cozy little wedding and I thought the church and decorations were beautiful.







                                                                    





This is the Chapel, it's lovely isn't it?








        
The happy couple





Their's was kind of a funny story.  When they met for the first time in a long time, they discovered that they had known each other in grade school.




                      One of the best thing about that weekend was that  not only did we get to attend a wedding, which alone is a happy occasion, but we also got to stay at Grandma's house for the weekend. The younger ones are always excited when we get to do this, mainly Charlene. Let me show you why.....                          



Charlene's favorite c ;
We get to see family we don't normally get to see, like our cousin Heaven.
And the notorious Uncle Sam, who is forever asking us if we are married yet and always making us laugh. He often gets me mixed up with my sister Gina, and so every time I see him he always asks me if I've joined the army yet ( which Gina told him might be in her future ) it always catches me off guard.
It's difficult for him to see and hear ( " I'm half blind and deaf..." as he puts it ) and so sometimes we'll be watching a movie and after a long and complicated scene ( which he slept through in the chair directly in front of the TV ) he'll wake up and say "What just happened?!" It's quite comical. c ;


      Grandma Doris also has a pool which I had a picture of but lost somehow. So for all of us, going to Grandma's is a treat. c ;
   And of course since we were all dressed up and surrounded by beautiful scenery, mom and dad wanted to take some pictures.




From left to right, Gina, Jesse and Chelsey ( me ) Wright. These are two of my brothers and sisters.

I think the little ones ran off when picture taking time came around.

     I snapped these pictures the other day when Steven and Charlene decided to get muddy after a rain storm.

And that is what almost hit me as I ran in the door. c ;        




    It's funny, I know we have a picture of me covered in mud at that age somewhere....I guess it runs in the family.

I found Charlene doing this the other day and could not stop laughing. Shes sitting on an old saddle of ours wit a stick horse tied to it ( her own creation ) and saying " Yaaaaaa!"

                                                                  

      Remember the honey and Jam I told you about before that wasn't quite ready ? Well we now have some honey. I'll have some videos on that sticky process later. But if you would like to buy some, let me know and I'll fill you in on the price and how many we have.
    We'll also be picking and jamming lots of Blackberries in the next few weeks. c ;

First jar of honey. This honey wasn't from our bees, we actually got it from a wild bee hive, so it's even better. c :

                                                                                                                            







This is what the Blackberry bushes look like right now, their almost ready! c :


And this is what it'll look like afterwards.
