A Beautiful Beach Wedding

10-11-12 was a very special day this year because two people very special to us joined their hands in marriage while the waves lapped the white sandy beach behind them in gorgeous Siesta Key, Florida.  Uncle Joe made Clarissa Henley the happiest girl in Florida that night and we all tickled that she is an official part of our family and we were able to be a part of their day. 
Making the trip to Florida was so much fun for us because we were able to visit family on the way and also have all of the little cousins together, which does not happen nearly as often as we would like. 

Now it is time to put away the tank tops and Capri pants because we have returned to the Midwest and the fall weather. Ahh, Florida, we already miss you! But our sincerest congratulations to the newlyweds – we love you and cannot think of a better reason to have visited the beach than to witness your beautiful wedding.
