More Wedding Pics

Here are the 2 flower girls walking down the aisle. The one on this side is my grand-daughter.  The other little girl is the groom's daughter.  Here they are after the ceremony with the ring bearer (the groom's son.)

Sorry the pics are fuzzy.  There was another ring bearer, the son of the bride and groom.  He's not walking yet, so his half brother pulled him down the aisle in a little red wagon.  He was so cute in black pants and a white dress shirt!  I wasn't quick enough to get a picture of him.  Someone pulled the wagon out in the other room and took care of him during the ceremony. 

I took this as they were being introduced to the audience.  My daughter is standing on the far left, and my sil (the bride's brother) on the far right.

And here are the little girls enjoying themselves at the reception.

Naturally I had to take a picture of my grand-daughter's curls.

Hope you enjoyed the pictures.

Wedding and Prom

Saturday afternoon we attended the wedding of our son-in-law's sister.  While we were there our grandson's date for the prom came and I was able to get a few pictures of the wedding, and the prom attire.  Our grandson got double duty out of his tux, which was nice.  He was an usher at the wedding.  His date came during the reception.  Her dress was so pretty.

Guess what shoes she chose.

Red and white sneakers.  Now there's a smart girl!

Here's my daughter and sil.  I took this before the wedding.  After the ceremony he took off his tie and untucked his shirt.  I didn't blame him.

The little girls had a great time........my grand-daughter, and the bride's step-daughter.  I'll have to show you their pictures next time.  Either Xanga &/or my computer is not co-operating with me. 

Graduation

It was a busy weekend, with a wedding on Saturday and the graduation Sunday.  First I will show you pictures of the graduation.   Purdue is a beautiful campus.  We only saw a small part of it.  This was the first building we saw after we left the parking garage.

David found us while we were waiting in line to get into the building.

Inside the Hall of Music.

Purdue has held graduations here for 40 years.  The ceremony lasted 3 hours!  This was only the grad students; masters, and doctors!

After the ceremony we managed to find each other, thanks to cell phones.

The proud graduate and his proud parents.

Big sister and "little "brother with sister's fiance.  Wedding will be June 2.

Tired grad and tired papa.  It was a good day.  He has his MBA now.  He will start his job with Bosch at the end of July.  Meanwhile, he is volunteering for an NGO, and will be going to Central Africa in June.

Graduation: Mother's Day

I don't know why Purdue has their graduation on Mother's Day, but they do.  So we have to get up at 5 am tomorrow to drive down to Purdue.  Today we went to our son-in-law's sister's wedding.  I have a few pictures which I'll post later, also pictures of our grandson and his prom date, plus  graduation pictures.  Busy times.  Happy Mother's Day to all you moms!

New Playset

Our grand-daughters have a new playset.   All the neighborhood children are enjoying it.

Grandma had to try out a swing too.

I was trying to teach Ella how to pump, but I was too tall to bring my feet back.

My daughter was babysitting the red-head and her little brother.

He's not bleeding.  That's ketchup on his face.

Evie had dirt on her face, but I don't think you can see it in this picture.  She loves to play with rocks and dirt.  Wait 'til she learns how to make mud pies.  That was one of my favorite things to do when I was little, although my mud pies were more like runny chocolate pudding.
