Today was the wonderful wedding of Brad and Char. they are both loving and beautiful people. They’ve been such great friends to us. 

Brad was one of Sam’s best friends .. and it meant so much to us to see him so happy..   

I cried a couple of times.. part from happiness for these two .

and some for what will never be for sam… (crying wile  write this m several weeks later)

Brad and Char did a great job of remembering  Sam, Pucket and the memories of family members who had died and invited them to be part of the service… 
in what ever way that meant to those here. 

The weather was beautiful until a little bit before the wedding ceremony.. then dark clouds rolled in and drenched everything..

then it passed and the folks from the venue when out to dry off the chairs.. 

then it poured again.. 

it was on again and off agin for a while until we were told that the wedding would eb movie inside.. 

then .. just as saddlery.. we were told it would be outside after all. 
Char was determined to be married outside.. and the weather cleared up to give her that wish

the seeing itsel was great/. Gabe did a fantastic job as an efficient. his comments were warm, fun  brief and right on for this gathering.. !

Then pictures and inside for dinner and dancing.. it was such a good time.. 

everyone was so happy..
we sure were !

what a greta day.. congratulations Brad and Char.. we wish you years of love and fun
