A moment in time. The wedding

Friday morning my brother and his wife and my son and my grandson all met Jeni and I at Park Sierra for a trip to Sacramento in the RV for our Daughter Katie's long awaited wedding.We got into Sac. about 1pm. Our sister in law Martha had to get certified as she is doing the honor of marrying Katie and Bill.The rest of us were busy hustling and bustling about in preparation of the ceremony at noon Sat.Friday afternoon was the rehearsal and that evening we had a dinner for all the family at "Hacienda Del Rio" in Folsom. One of our favorite places for Mexican food, except this occasion where our 6:30pm reservation turned into an 8:45pm "fiasco" including "sub par" food and a "surly "manager that looked about 17 yrs. old! If your ever in Folsom Ca. on Sutter St.Pass that place up! We won't be back! Anyway At 7am Sat. morning our son and daughter,my 2 brothers,and our sister in law Martha headed to the park to decorate for the festivities.Oh! did I mention that is was a Thousand degrees outside.Well it felt like it but we managed.Jeni had this ice chest the size of "Omar the tent makers"coffin and she sent my brother Gary and I to Costco for the food,water, and Ice.Once we got that "Behemoth" loaded the car was trying to "pop a wheelie" all the way home.That "sucker" was heavy! Jeni was smart, all the water(140 bottles), soda stored in the RV,and soda,beer brought in all toll probably topped 700 drinks and it was basically gone by 3pm.All in all it was a great time had by all and Daughter Katie,She was Beautiful in her wedding dress and that "million dollar" smile.It was her day to shine.

The thing that made this very special for Jeni,myself,and Katie was that Katie's aunt Martha did the ceremony and married them.Kate and her new husband Bill are now Mr.and Mrs. William Hise. Katie has lots of friends as she is very "social". She gets that from my Father.He never Knew a stranger, as they say.One of her best friends that shes known forever is Jamie.That's them in the picture 2nd pic.from the top of the page.they and their kids are very close.
Jeni and I would like to thank our family for all their hard work to make it a special day for Bill and Katie".Through thick and thin,good times and bad,you are always there for us;THANK YOU.

All the pictures we posted are very special that we wanted to share but my favorites were my grand kids. Me sitting with Aiden(with glasses) my son Dan's son and DJ my Daughter Jackie's son.Also the picture of the lovely bride and her beautiful Daughter Alyx,my granddaughter.I love them both.(top pic.)

You know in life when you have something that seems to become a snapshot in your mind,an image that is there forever.Saturday,watching everyone celebrate,looking at my Daughter's smiling face,watching my family,my wife,kids and grand kids,enjoying themselves,that was my "moment in time".I will remember that image forever.

Good luck Bill and Katie.
