SHE'S MARRIED!!!!!

The rehearsal and dinner was alot of fun. We like rehearsals that are short and to the point (good job, Pastor Barger and Cassie).

Then we headed over to the old fair grounds for the rehearsal dinner. We had an old fashioned picnic - hamburgers, brats, hotdogs, fried chicken, potato salad, cole slaw and ice cream sundaes. What a feast!

We missed getting a picture of Luke & Lacey - but here are our other children and their spouses.

Tobin & Erin (with Zachary in the background).

Emily & Dan...

Even the "old" people got in front of the camera.

The groom and bride-to-be, Micah and Betsey.


The younger children (some 30 years old) had a great time playing with the balloons and hats. It was a great fun! Here's Grace trying to bury Elyse in balloons.


THE WEDDING!

Our lovely girls! Elyse...


Emily & Erin...

The groom's anticipation as Betsey made her entry.


A lovely bride for sure! Dad looks like he had taken a short nap, I know we were all tired.

I am happy to announce and introduce you to Mr. & Mrs. Micah Vastbinder!!!!!


The reception room...


Emily & I cleaning up the chocolate fountain. We had chocolate all over our clothes. Our arms got an immediate "tan" with chocolate up to our elbows. It was a heavy, dirty job. But licking your fingers was still allowed!


All in all, it was a lovely wedding. The only thing we have to do now is move Betsey's belongings to their new apartment, sell our house, pack our things and move to Illinois. Nothing more than the miraculous.
