Gennis & Andrew Edwards!

Had a great day at my nephew's wedding!






















It was beautiful and a lot of fun!  All guests were given sunglasses as a thank you for coming...so cute!  The B&B was a gorgeous setting and the food was delicious!  Gennis & Andrew headed off to Myrtle Beach for their honeymoon.  Sweet couple!

M&M Very Comfy!





















Sine we have endured the very long, cold winter here in MA...we are looking forward to the spring and summer!  The parsonage has a very nice enclosed "Florida Room" which will be wonderful to occupy...as long as we can fight Maverick & Martina for the space!
They love being out there since the temps have gotten above 60!  They have each claimed a chair.   :-D
