"Mommy, watch me"


Those three little words, "Mommy, watch me!".  They make my heart melt.  And I heard them quite often last night as Haidyn and I played at the park in Brewster for ECFE.  Her adorable little heart was content just going back and forth, up and down the slide.  I love how such little joy for her brings me TREMENDOUS joy.  Could my life get any better? Nope.

Here Comes the Bride!

Well, another Jones wedding is in the books.  This past weekend we celebrated the wedding of my sister, Trisha, to her fiance, Brian Smith.  It was a beautiful wedding and very long awaited considering Trisha and Brian have been together about 13 years.  The engagement was very surprising to all of us, but very well anticipated.  We couldn't be happier for the both of them!

Her colors were coral and gray, hence the color of my typing!  Trisha was absolutely stunning and Brian didn't look too shabby either! 

I was very honored to have been a bridesmaid and our dresses were beautiful.  Mallory was a candlelighter and Isabella was, again, a flower girl.  They couldn't have been cuter!  They both did an amazing job and had so much fun!  We all did! 

My camera broke a couple of weeks ago so I wasn't able to get many pictures except for what I could take on my cell phone.  But here's what I do have:

This is what Trisha's bouquet looked like.  Isn't it gorgeous?  But it was VERY heavy!

These are the flowers that us bridesmaids carried

It was such a beautiful day and beautiful wedding that I wish I had more pictures, but at least I have a few nice ones from my phone. 

I am so sad it's over and that there will be no more weddings.  I have such fun being a part of them.  I believe Trisha's wedding was the 6th one I've been a bridesmaid in.  So fun! 

Here's to a lifetime of happiness and love for Trisha and Brian Smith!!
