Whew.

It POURED rain on Friday. And again on Sunday.

But Saturday?

IT WAS LOVELY.

Thank goodness, because there was this wedding...

That's Victoria (Tori) and her dad, getting ready to walk down the (white hydrangea lined) aisle in their backyard...

and get married to Blake.

Vintage suitcase for cards

Pickle jars filled with white hydrangea. Stunning.

Mason jars filled with wildflowers and candles

Burlap table runners

Bride's bouquet was soft and feminine.

Wedding cake. Inspired by pinterest.

Wayne and Rozann have a spectacular backyard - the perfect setting for a wedding. If you'd like to see more pics (250 more) click here.

Three FIVE Things I'm Thankful For:

1. That I have creative, talented, artistic friends. Wow. That was a such a pretty wedding.
2. I'm thankful that I got to witness Blake and Tori exchange their vows. I need to be reminded, now and then, about love.
3. I'm thankful that it didn't rain on this special day.
4. I'm thankful for a quiet day at the lake, burning photo DVD's and cleaning up my photo files. The rain? Didn't matter. In fact, I loved the sound of it.
5. Beds with memory foam.

Shalom,
