Gina's Wedding

Friday, July 24th, John's sister Gina and her love, Jerry, tied the knot and blended their two beautiful families. It was a gorgeous ceremony, on a lovely hillside, with pretty good weather (it only rained during dinner, and we were under tents), lots of love, dancing, and a rainbow. Our family is blessed with the addition of Jerry and his daughter, Joelle.

(*Note: You won't see any pictures of the toasts or the cake or the first dance because Giuliana had "a bit" of a meltdown and I was pre-occupied for about an hour. She rallied after a short nap, though, and danced her little heart out the rest of the night.)

Our little family (and the dress I picked...what do you think?

Mommy and G, cooling off pre-ceremony under the tent (it was HOT!)

The lovely grounds, and a pretty decent looking couple ;)

John's beautiful sister, Gina, beaming!

My little Chicaboo (just before The Melt-Down of Epic Proportions began) walking up to Daddy, who was standing with his family at the top of the hill. He read a piece of scripture during the ceremony.

Gina and Jerry, leading their newly blended family (only partially shown here, they now have four children between them).

A promise of love and a blessing over the wedding...a rainbow!

My Dancing Queen! She didn't leave the dance floor all night. She even has on her dancing flip flops...pretty party shoes tossed aside in favor of function. That's my girl!
