We had such a lovely time this past weekend at my cousin Micaela's wedding. The day was perfect, with only a light warm breeze, dappled sunlight, and no rain even though the skies threatened it a few times. The whole wedding party was gorgeous, but the bride was especially radiant. She is the most extraodinary girl - full of love, a bubbly personality, always has a good word to say about everyone, and a smile that can light up a room. The groom is a wonderful man who is going to be an even more wonderful husband. The two of them make a truly beautiful pair. I'm very excited to see what the Lord has in store for them in their new life together.

The next day (Saturday) I got to spend some quality time with my sister and our friend Jess (she's really like an adopted sister). She lives around 8 hours north, so we don't get to see each other nearly as much as we'd like, so when we do get together there's always lots to catch up on.
Sunday I did laundry, blocked a few shawls, washed a baby blanket I crocheted for a gift, and packed to go visit my sister for a few days. My cousin Josh and his lovely bride-to-be Sheena's wedding is this coming Friday and since I'm doing the cake I can just go visit for a few days, but this is the only time I can go for the rest of the summer, so I wanted to make sure I fit it in. It's always so much fun to go and stay with her.
I hope you all had a lovely weekend as well! I should be back tomorrow with some sock pictures.
Till then,
xoxo
Look at you being all rockstar! Seriously, your hair! I'm so jealous...my hair is as straight as a board no matter what I do to it...and then it gets tangled. It's just easier to keep it shorter :(
