A beautiful Georgia wedding

Here are the bride and groom - Billy and Mitzi Allen - both were oh so beautiful!

Here are the proud parents of the groom - Billy and Mary Allen - Mary is Ken's sister

This is a view of the ocean that was the backdrop for the wedding - absolutely wonderful

The minister is Mitzi's brother - he did the service in English and Hawaiian - He did a beautiful service

Here is the "cake box" I made for everyone to put their envelopes/cards in -  I was very happy with the way it turned out - the roses are so pretty

Here is my sister in law, Margaret, (in the pink top) doing the hula.  Part of the reception were hula dancers and at one point they asked guests to get up and join in.

At the reheresal dinner on Friday nite we had bar-b-que and a Low Country Boil.  There was oysters, and the boil consisted of corn on the cob, potatoes, shrimp and sausage.  Ken was in hog heaven with the oysters.

SLURPPPPPPPPPPPPP!  Thats the sound Ken was making when we was eating his oysters.  I wish I had sound to go along with this pic! 

Lil' Billy (the groom) has a house right on the marsh.  Here is a picture of the marsh - lots of wild critters live out here!!! big and little  (big as is alligagtors!)

I love the way moss hangs from the trees here.....

Mary made the groom's cake and the wedding cake.  Each layer is a different flavor.....it was oh so beautiful!

Here is the groom's cake.  Since Billy and Mitzi hike he wanted hiking boots for his cake.  These are exact replicas of his boots - size and everything.  The boots were made out of brownies covered with black fondant.  Its all made from chocolate, brownie or red velvet cake - so you can (and we did) eat it all - even the rocks, dirt, leaves and pine needles (found on any trail) were made of chocolate.  Talk about a talented sister in law!

I made 50 invitations for a15th birthday celebration for one of Madi's BFF's.  Her theme is pumpkin and roses - her birthday is Oct. 31 and her favorite flower is the rose.... wish you could see how they shimmer....spritzed them with shimmer mist.

Wow - I sure did have lots of pictures for you to see.  We had a wonderful trip to Ga.  Our route took us thru La, Miss, Ala, Fla, and Ga.  Have to tell you - being back home....back to reality is hard.  It is oh so nice having someone come in and make the beds, clean the room and give you fresh towels....plus having breakfast made for you.  Ok, lets just say, I could learn to live this way!! Mary and  Billy put on a great rehersal dinner and the wedding....OMG beautiful.  We felt just like we were in Hawaii.  The Kings and Prince Resort in St. Simon's Island was the location of the wedding.  With the wedding outside the backdrop was of the ocean.  The bride and groom stood under palm trees, a gentle breeze off the ocean and hawaiian music softly playing in the background.  The reception was wonderful, lots of food and drink.  I can truly say that So. Georgia really knows how to put on one heck of a wedding.  We had a neighbor's son come over and feed the cats instead of taking them to the vets.  The inside girls....okay, they shunned us for a day after we got back but they are over it by now.  Miss Kitty the outside kitty gave me love as soon as we got back....at least someone was glad to see us.  Ken is adjusting to not having his fill of seafood every day.  He really OD'd while we were on our trip.  We had beautiful weather and boy oh boy is everything green in Fla and Ga - made me so jealous over the thick, soft to walk on grass.  We are heading out next week to Tyler to visit my folks and visit with Ken's sister Margaret.  So we will be hitting the road on Tues.  See everyone when we get home.  Love to all - Ken and Glynda :)
