It took many hands to battle the elements and set up this party! The wind was out of control before the party started. Luckily it settled down for awhile to give us a few beautiful hours of sunshine.... and ten minutes or so of torrential rain...gotta love Michigan weather!
Here are the smallest of our small army. :) In addition to junior bridesmaid and flower girl, John's nieces, Helen and Diana, can now add professional balloon arrangers to their resume'. Our ring bearer, Jon, is on the deck, probably securing the misbehaving table clothes.
The balloons were giving Diana a run for her money!Everyone enjoying the beautiful weather while it lasted.
These are Rita's friends from her bible study and the infamous "Vita" who is celebrating her 50th (?) wedding anniversary on the 25th of July as well. Congratulations Vita! The 25th must be a good day for marriages to begin!
More church friends and John's high school physics teacher, Mrs. Wood, who is wearing purple on the left. She must have done something right because John has been pretty successful with his engineering career. You can see the wash-cloth and soap party favors on the table too. Good thing we got them all inside before it rained, otherwise Dick and Rita would've had one clean deck.
Like me, these beautiful ladies have all chosen to marry Neely men too! From left to right, we have Stephanie who just married John's cousin a couple of months ago, Aunt Marilyn, Karima, and Aunt Vera. I'm happy to join the "I married a Neely" club with them!
This is a picture of Sandy holding the picture coasters so that we have a picture of the coasters to put in the coasters. Phew! Too funny! We also have a great picture of Lisa and Kellen, but I wasn't sure if I could post it because Kellen is so young, so if anyone from that back table wants it, send me an email! It's really cute!
Thanks again to all that worked to put this together for us!
Love, John & Danielle
