A Year Ago Today...

I was sewing a horseshoe into Sweet Pea's weddding dress... (Irish tradition)


I watched my youngest daughter blossom into a beautiful young woman, full of serenity and providing love and support as her sister's maid of honor...


I saw my handsome husband in a tux again for the first time in 26 years (not since our wedding)...


I watched my new son-in-law lovingly wipe a tear away from his bride's eye as she spoke her vows...


I witnessed their first kiss as husband and wife...


I saw Sweet Pea and Mr. Sweet Pea enjoy their first dance as husband and wife...



I stood in awe as Sweet Pea and her daddy shared the father/daugher dance...


I ate wedding cake for dessert...


I drank too much champagne...


Way too much champagne...


I enjoyed time with my in-laws...


I welcomed my new son into our family...


I said good-bye to my baby girl on her way to her honeymoon in Paris, France...
