Krista Gets Married...




Krista was such a cute little girl. She was tiny and didn't really like Isaac hugging her that much, but she tolerated it pretty well. As a bride, she was stunning. Last weekend we attended her beautiful sunset wedding. She married Jason and it was blending of two lives, two families, and two careers in a lovely Christian ceremony. Karen was the matron of honor and she looked so beautiful. Krista has accomplished much and her parents have a lot to be so very proud of. But in spite of her achievements, she is the same sweet girl with sincerity in everything she does.

The next day we had a bit of reunion. I got to hold Karen's handsome little baby boy, Trent, and listen to him coo and blow bubbles at his mama's soft voice. All the Martin's who had come from out of town gathered for lunch at a restaurant and later at Olen's in Westminster and we had a great time together. Parker and Daniel played like only two cousins can, Freddy and his generation of cousins played and talked and shared, and the Martin boys and Gay visted non stop. We ended the day with singing, hymns, Mickey's solos, and, of course, a final version of the Martin Hannakuh song! A GRAND reunion and loads of fun. Many thanks to Olen for making all the arrangements, and to Sara and her darling baby Christina, and Barney and Gay and family who came from so far away. We really missed those who couldn't be there but we knew they were there in spirit.
