Since my last post...

 We have had a bit of excitement here. 

Middle kidlet called on Sept. 15 and asked what we had planned for October 1st.

Well, nothing, why?

While Cindy and Tyler have been a part of our family for well over a year, 

 it was time to make it official and they wanted to do it here, at our house. 

Yep - gave mom a whopping 15 days to plan a wedding!

Mom is not a wedding planner, but I got to work. Thank goodness for Amazon Prime!

I think it turned out okay for my first attempt.

I was up early on Saturday morning and in an attempt to not wake anyone else in the house I took my coffee and went out on the patio. I turned on the lights and snapped this picture.

Once everyone else was awake we started taking care of last minute details. I don't have many pictures yet. My niece was in charge of photos and I trusted her to capture the day so I put my phone on silent and left it inside. I just wanted to enjoy the moment without looking through the phone/camera lens. The few pictures I have here were shared with me by others. I will share more when I have them.

It was a simple ceremony with just family and friends. 

I love this picture. All the men in my life.

My brother, hubby, oldest kidlet, 'new' grandson, baby boy, middle kidlet and my dad.

I am truly blessed.

Ended the day back on the patio. 

(This is the other side)

It has been unbearably hot this summer (Texas really doesn't 'do' fall) but we got a bit of a break and the weather was perfect over the weekend.

Nothing makes this momma happier than seeing her children happy.
