Today would have been my Grandparent’s 68th Wedding Anniversary. The picture below sits on our mantel and is a daily reminder of my heritage and legacy of love. They were an example of faith, hard work, love and commitment. So many parts of who we are today came from our families that paved the way.

I’m seeing my mother feel the pain of her parents not being here a little stronger today. This pains my heart and makes me long for them as well. After shedding some tears of their absence this morning I went and picked up a smiling baby out of her crib. I told her about her grandparents and how much they love her and what they were like. It’s now my responsibility to tell her of her legacy and connect the past with the present until we are all together again. It’s now our responsibility to teach the next generation of faith, hard work, love and commitment.

This is an overwhelming and humbling task, but one I welcome. – Katie

Mike and Katherine’s gorgeous wedding was our last wedding at Old Edwards Inn for the year. What a beautiful wedding to end our time there. We loved the intimate connection these two shared and how tender their love is for each other. Mike’s two children were there and rounded out their new “family.” We loved moments shared between Mike and his children during the day.

We still can’t say enough for our love of Old Edwards Inn. They make everything perfect and anticipate needs before the guest even know what they might be needing. Their hospitality and dedication to excellence has been wonderful to watch all summer long. Kirk, once again, did an outstanding job on the florals and we loved the yellows and purples that came into his creations this at this wedding.

Rosemary is nine months old now (this post is a few days late). She is such a happy child. She’s doing beautifully and such a joy to have around. We did a few pictures of her yesterday and thought you might like to see them.

She has recently learned to move from one piece of furniture to another, wave bye bye, say mama and squeal as loud as she can. ; )

Enjoy our sweet girl.
