Bradley and Alison are Married.....

Bradley and Alison are Married..... Don't they look Beautiful...... Everything went just the way they planned it.... the setting was beautiful with the water and the trees and the Beautiful Day... Beautiful sunset.... Good food... Great people.... I am happy they have so many really great friends.... You just can't have enough people who love you!!
This is Bradley and Grace... his Best Man... and she is.... a very good friend and a very nice woman...

This is me setting up the dessert table before all the chocolate fell out.... what a mess, but we (my Aunt Mary's calm self and I) got it to stay together until they cut it... the good thing, everything tasted delicious... the cheesecake was a success and the strawberries were just what Bradley wanted... and the chocolate mousse was Alison's recipe and very delicious with a touch of Kahlua in it...yummy.... Every bit of the desserts were eaten... Success...


This was really great Brad and Alison had been taking salsa dancing lessons, and for their first dance together they did a salsa dance...it was great to see them dancing... I even danced with Bradley, I loved that too! They are probably still on a flight to Spain for two weeks... Hope they are having a great time... I really wish more of my family could have been there to share this special day, but I understand, life is busy.
Thanks so much to Mom for coming, and to Uncle Jim, who drove the girls over and Aunt Mary, who helped me through my crisis...I couldn't have made it through with out you... And Joe And Linda who have been a help all week... which wasn't easy ...just ask Linda.... and ofcouse my Friend Mary who was by my side till the end...I Love You ALL!!!!!
Congratulations Bradley and Alison, I love you Both!!!!
