Picture
Today was a big day for my niece and Godchild, Amber.  She was beautiful.  Well, she's always beautiful, but today she was radiant.  It means the world to me to see her happy, and Chris does that for her.  What made this celebration extra special was the number of cousins that attended.  Both sides of my family were represented, and even though I didn't get to spend a ton of time with everyone, it was great to be there together.  I adore my extended family!  So I guess there were a lot of little moments on which to reflect as a positive experience today.  Happy Wedding Day, Amber and Chris!  Thanks for a wonderful and eventful time (complete with genuine vows, a choreographed first dance, whimsy and laughter throughout the night... everything that symbolizes your relationship!).  May your lives be filled with love and understanding, adventure and peace, and most importantly, friendship.  Cheers!
