There is just something special about seeing a neighborhood kid grow up, meet that someone special and get married. Saturday, Paula and I traveled to Wiley, Colorado to witness the vows of Miles and Kimber. The wedding took place on the grounds of  her parents farm. The wedding was very unique. Kimber has her own special style and it was evident everywhere you looked. Her bouquet was made up of rhinestone brooches and feathers. Her wedding shoes, teal with rhinestones. Peacock feathers were in some of the attendants hair and in some of the table decorations. Popcorn in bags of teal (blue raspberry) and brown (caramel) were party favors. Homemade ice cream with a variety of toppings was served.  It started out a little warm but it ended up cool with a slight breeze. Nature provided an awesome lightening show in the Northeastern sky. It was great fun.

Also, if you ever need a traveling companion, I recommend Paula. She grew up in the country around Montague as one of ten children and she can entertain with stories of her childhood. The miles just seemed to melt away as she told her tales. She really needs to write a book~ The eight hour trip seemed to go by rather quickly and I don't think I have ever laughed as hard or as much as we did on our road trip. Her story about how she and her brother woke up with a strange man in the house could be a comedy sketch!

All that time together and I forgot to tell you something...to take down that photo with me in it at the shower! I don't think Jody or Jan will be offended. You can't even see them for my elephant (keeping with the theme) body!!!
And now you've posted another! If you'd just send that to me I can airbrush me out! Thank you
