Our party on Saturday was wonderful! Couldn't have wished for better. Everyone that was here had a very good time, loads of food, and great laughs.
Mandy and Scarlet were so grateful, it made me feel so good inside to hear it. I had done so much work for the party and hoped they'd appreciate it and they did, bigtime!
We took loads of pictures, which sounds logical but I'm such a goof and usually forget to take them, so I'm happy I didn't this time. I got some great shots of all my kids together, which we know doesn't happen too often and they look so happy. I believe they really do love each other and getting together helps them remember those feelings.
I'm planning to have copies of the pix made and we can put them in the album we got for the girls, which we'll give them on Thursday. The big day!
What a trip it is to think that my daughter is gettng married. I recently attended the wedding of my neighbor's daughter. It was in the planning for a long time, official invitations went out, the catholic church was reserved, a lovely ballroom was booked and the catered event was perfect�in everyway. Nicole looked stunning in her flowing white dress, her husband-to-be was so dashing in his tux, large improvement over his baggie shorts and tshirts!
We will have none of that, Mandy wants it simple. She said that in the future there could be a formal ceremony for their friends and family that won't be attending on Thursday.
On the one hand, I'm happy, on the other, I'm not.
You gotta let your children go, let them have their lives, enjoy their ups and stand by in the downs. I find myself thinking, "how does this reflect on me?"
