What a Weekend!!!!
Hey my loving family members! I sure missed ya'll this weekend!!! Lindy & Teann kept me posted on all the good stuff!
Friday night's graduation went well for the first 15 minutes then the rain made them move it inside and only 6 people per graduate could go in so we all went back to my Moms' house and waited for my niece to get there after graduation. She was stunning but on Saturday she was ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!!! The wedding started at 2:00 and I cried from about 2:05 until it was over. The songs they sang were wonderful. Keeper of the Stars was the first one and the next two were a blur but right b4 my niece came down the aisle, she was standing at the back of the church with her Dad (my brother) and they played Butterfly Kisses. Anybody that knows that song knows that when you have a beautiful bride & her father standing at one end of a church and the groom at the other awaiting his lovely wife-to-be, it's a tear jerker. We were all crying, including Anna ( my niece) and my brother!!! The pictures will be absolutely gorgeous and when I get them scanned in (when we get them) I will share on my yahoo photo album.
I am very tired and fixing to try to go to bed (YES, at 6:45 p.m.) I had to drop Dylan off on the way in and I'm a bit depressed about that on top of being totally exhausted.
I will try to catch up on the board tomorrow (WHEN I get out of bed).
Just want to say a quick hello & welcome to Linda, Traci & Beth. Beth, I emailed you a few days ago to check on you. I had inquired about you several times and nobody knew anything. I figured there was a man involved in there somewhere!! Traci, great to see your beautiful face (get that computer fixed soon). Linda, good luck with whatever path you decide to travel down. We're all right there with ya. Glad you are all with us now!!
Love you all,
Dixie
Welcome home! I had posted a long post to this post once already and it disappeared, so I guess we've got some more voodoo going on here. I think I just clicked the Preview button and didn't go further and click the Submit button. Maybe I wasn't in a submissive mood!
Anyway, welcome back!
Love you,
Joni
OMG I posted the words to Butterfly Kisses and just reading it I cried like a baby again!!!!! Like you said, a good cry.... Picturing in my mind my beautiful niece & my brother standing at the end of the church ready to walk in with that song playing and watching both of them wiping tears away. OMG! It really was a beautiful wedding.
I hear ya. I didnt even get mentioned.. just kidding. My weekend has been crazy too. I am looking at 3 places today and really want one of them to work out. I am hoping my current landlord (slimy weasel) will give me back my deposit so I can get outta here. Today is Daryl's last day in town so I dont want to be online too long. I love ya and miss ya very much.
Love,
Heather
Butterfly Kisses Lyrics... Just imagine and be sure to get a tissue!
There's two things I know for sure
She was sent here from Heaven
And she's daddys little girl
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night
She talks to Jesus and I close my eyes
And I thank God for all of the joy in my life
Oh but most of all
For butterlfy kisses after bedtime prayer
Stickin little white flowers all up in her hair
Walk beside the pony dady
It's my first ride
I know the cake looks funny daddy
But i sure tried
Oh with all that I've done wrong
I must have done something right
TO deseve a hug every mornin
And butterfly kisses at night
Sweet 16 today
She's lookin like her mama
A little more every day
One part woman
The other part girl
To perfume and make up
From ribbons and curls
Trying her wrongs out in a great big world
But I remember
Butterlfy kisses after bedtime prayer
Stickin little white flowers all up in her hair
You know how much I love you dady
But if you don't mind
I'm only gonna kiss you on the check this time
Oh with all that I've done wrong
I must have done something right
To deserve her love every mornin
And butterfly kisses at night
All the precious time
Like the wind the years go by
Precious Butterfly
Spread yuor wings and fly
She'll change her name today
She'll make a promise and I'll give her aways
Standing in the bride room just starin at her
She asked me what I'm thinkin
And I said I'm not sure
I just feel like I'm loosin my baby girl
And she leaned over
And gave me butterfly kisses with her mama there
Stickin little white flowers all up in her hair
Walk me down the isle daddy
It's just about time
Does my wedding gown look pretty daddy?
Daddy don't cry
Oh with all that I've done wrong
I must have done something right
To deserve her love every mornin and butterfly kisses
I couldn't ask GOd for more than this is what love is
I know I've got to let her go but I'll always remember
Every hug in the mornin and butterly kisses
