I woke up this morning thinking about June 22, 2002, and how much activity was going on in our home as Ashley and Carolyn primped for Ash's wedding later that morning. Excitement and a little bit of nostalgia hung in the air as hairdos were done and we all readied ourselves for the BIG DAY.
Even with the passage of time, the day still was one of the more perfect wedding/receptions we'd ever attended. The fun of the bridesmaids prepping and the groomsmen joking downstairs before the ceremony. The honor/pride/transition feelings as I walked Ashley down the aisle to hand her to Bryce. The wonderful message and personal remembrances of the pastor. The prayers of both sets of parents over our kids. The music that greeted us and that ushered us out.
And then the fun and fellowship at Waters for the reception. Seeing all our friends and friends of Ashley and Bryce sharing with us this wonderful day. It was certainly not a June gloom day.
So here two years later, we find Ashley and Bryce in Edinburgh, Scotland working on post-graduate degrees. Working together to support each other emotionally, educationally, financially and, most importantly, spiritually. We are so proud of both of them and glad to claim Bryce as our son-in-law. The only thing that will seem strange is calling them Doctor and Reverend (in a couple of years)!
A toast to a long, healthy, Christ-centered marriage!!
