Jordy's wedding!!!!

A couple days late but I have a great excuse!  We had a wedding in our family!   Our first born grand daughter, Jordan, got married Friday to Tyler!  Jordy is Brad and Tara's daughter and our princess. She is so precious to us and I can't believe she is now married!!!  Seemed like yesterday she was just a giggling little blondie that always made us happy!  Now she will be making Tyler happy and he will be making her happy.  We pray for a very long and beautiful marriage for them! Here are a few pictures we took and borrowed.

church where wedding was performed!

It was a very quick wedding.  We couldn't take pictures during the wedding but we could during the reception.  The reception was a blast! There was a really good dinner of different pasta, fettuccine or marinara sauce, meatballs or turkey meat, garlic bread, salad, etc...  There were drinks served, cupcakes, and lots of dancing!  In one photo you will see that Lauren dragged Madi up there and they are laughing!  Kevon finally got Parker up there.  I am sure it shocked Heather!  Never got Dylan though.  I even got Papa up there for an Elvis song.  I got to dance a few times.  I could only last for part of the songs because of my back pain. That was the hardest part. But I still had fun! I think everyone did!  I thought I would be in pain the next morning but I wasn't.  We took a couple naps during the day.

It has been a tiring week so I a glad we've had these couple days to relax before the week starts again.  I am glad the grandkids have more energy than us because Lauren had an all day competition for band down in Tumwater on Saturday. Andrew had a photo shoot. Madi had her homecoming dance.  She looked gorgeous!

Trying to get myself together for this wedding was hard.  I ordered Papa two shirts which were both nice.  He chose the lighter one and it made his eyes look so green.  And he wouldn't get hot. Well, he froze most of the night.  It was a beautiful day and night but it was chilly outside.  He looked handsome.  The three boys (Kevon, Andrew and Dylan) all wore black shirts.  Dylan and Kevon wore grey pants but Andrew's were black so that made him the leader of their group. lol!  Everyone looked so great but mostly Jordy!

Anyway... I order two dresses and didn't wear either.  I was worried about freezing so I wore black slacks.  Found one shirt in silverdale but it was too big and I had to return it.  Then I found a pretty rose colored sweater that was really soft and warm and went with that. It had sequins and pearls on the front.  Everyone said I looked good which surprised me given the fact that I went and had my hair colored on Thursday.  Way too light!  I wanted some highlights so my gray wouldn't come out so obvious when it grows out.  Well, it doesn't look that highlighted to me...it looks a blondish silver color.  I think I look older but I got a lot of compliments there and on facebook.  So that made me feel better. 

The rest of the week... I picked up Madi after school with Dairy Queen chicken strips and blizzards.  She came to my house and we had a Pink Floyd marathon of a video and games.  It was fun!

Tuesday was a laid back day and on Wednesday was running around getting hair done and shopping for a shirt. We had lunch at Skippers which was really good!!!  Then Lauren came over to our house after debate for a while.  She came over Sunday too. We picked her up at Lindseys' house and she came over for Meatballs, Mashed Potatoes and Corn.  She loves it.  Then she had to go to Port Gamble to sell roses at a play.  She's always so busy it is hard to keep track of her. 

Birthdays last week were :  one of my favorite nieces, Alyssa, turned 22! Happy birthday Aly!!!! Love you!!!

My sister-in-law (more like a sister) Rita! Happy birthday Rita!!!  Love you!

My favorite drink at the moment!

My dog waiting for Papa!

Today is our dog's 10th birthday!  Papa loves that dog more than anything!  He is sad he is aging.  For his birthday we are watching the Seahawk game with no volume.  Hearing the game freaks him out and causes him a lot of anxiety.  We've tried pills to mellow him out (natural for dogs) but it didn't help last week. So we read the game as we watch.  We are winning 20-0 gainst the Raiders right now.  And I get to see Marshawn Lynch (used to be a Hawk but got ready to desired and went to his home town where he grew up and decided to spend a year being a Raider.)  I do not understand why the NFL plays games in London. Don't the British call soccer football?  Who does it benefit to go over there and play?  Oh well, I don't run the NFL.  

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SCRUFFY DOG!!!!!!

I've scheduled my mammogram for the 24th!  Have you????  Have a great week!
