I can't believe I have not blogged in a whole week but we have just been busy here. We have company and I've been slowed down with some painful sores that interfere with chewing and talking.
We have had lots of fun this past week and the highlight was the wedding reception for our son Bobby and his bride Sheena. They were married in the summer in a "just them" private ceremony. This weekend, they had a huge party to celebrate with all their friends and family.
This is a professional photo of the happy couple. There were 2 photographers there from OkiePhoto. One of them was running around them in circles with a sparkler while the other took these fireworks pictures.
Really cool, isn't it? It really suits their fun personalities too.
The party was just amazing and they had so many fun things to celebrate from a mountain of food and a bounce house for the children.
I really enjoyed the fireworks show, which the bride arranged and kept it a secret surprise for the groom.
The flying lanterns were really cool too. They had a hundred of them and it was quite a sight to see them floating off in the night sky.
My son took this photo. Little Elizabeth was so excited with the lanterns as her mom and dad light one. That is my dad, holding his great grandson JJ watching in the background.
I did not take a camera to the party so none of these photos are my own, thankfully I could borrow them from Facebook. OkiePhoto does amazing work and I am looking forward to seeing the rest of their great photos.
Prayers and hopes for Bobby and Sheena, for a very long and happy married life together!
Congratulations to your son and his wife. Wishing them many, many happy years together.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic idea ( running around people with sparklers and such to get a photo like that! )
ReplyDeleteI love those lanterns flying away into the night sky...so romantic! :) By the way thank you for visiting my blog and commenting on the collages. I answered you there but to make life easy I'll repeat it here...I just use Picasa. I used to use it for simple editing and didn't even know that it had a collage / mosaic feature until I came across the party called "Mosaic Monday" over at The Little Red House blog. There, people show photos with their posts, as most bloggers do, but they include a collage or mosaic as well, and that is when I learned that I could do the same. So for Mosaic Monday I make collages, but I use them alot in regular posts as well because sometimes I think a quick collage is probably better than someone having to look at a bunch of pictures...it all depends, but anyway, I use Picasa and it is free/ I do not have photoshop or any special complicated software :)
Looks like fun! Congrats to the happy couple!
