We (me, Bruce, Megan and Dylan) went up to the farm the first weekend in March so we could work on the wedding spot. Although Saturday was rainy, we were able to get the food planned out for the reception and ended the day with delicious smoked ribs Bruce made. Finally on Sunday, we were able to get out and start cleaning up.

Plus we put out grass seed to grow. It's really starting to shape up! The dogs were happy getting to run around for a couple of hours as well.
This dogwood is down the hill:
I had Megan and Dylan pose by it so I could have a picture for my gallery wall:

In the city, the gallery wall is coming together and I'll be sharing that soon. Plus, the laundry room is also nearing completion. Be sure to come back Friday to check out a little project I did!
Cecilia this is so exciting. That spot for the wedding is going to be perfect. Love the white dogwood tree too. A good sign this is a good spot. I know once you have the flowers and chairs this spot will just be perfect for their special day. The picture of the two for your gallery wall will be a treasure to have. So excited you are getting closer to the special day.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Kathleen! I'm already praying for the perfect weather. October can be hot or chilly! At least the back up plan is in place!
DeleteAdorable couple! They have selected a nice spot for the ceremony. I can only imagine what it will look like in the spring.
ReplyDeleteThis is going to be the most beautiful spot for a wedding! Your daughter is a beauty - she looks like you.

I love, love, LOVE this! I am sure it doesn't seem like work at all in creating such a sweet spot for a bright future.
ReplyDeleteAlso, thank you so very much for your warm and heartfelt comments.
I wanted to let you know that I am nearing the end of my college experience and am currently doing a 7-week internship at a museum as a requirement for graduation. It is an interesting experience to be sure.
I must admit that I am struggling to try and manage my time and make sure my family's needs are met. Sadly, this leaves little time left for visiting my favorite people in the world and their fabulous blogs. I hope you'll have patience with me. Thankfully, this time won't last forever and I will soon, once again, be able to see all the wonderful things you are doing.
May glorious weather and lovely flowers put a spring in your step,
Laura

ReplyDeleteSuch an exciting time for your family. The wedding spot is lovely. Can't wait to hear more about all the plans going forward.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sharon. It already looks different with the trees budding out and everything growing. It's very exciting for us.
DeleteBeautiful couple and a perfect spot for the wedding. I know you are so excited. Love the Dogwood tree. Too bad it will not be blooming in October. But you are so artistic and talented, I know everything will be beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
