One of my regrets in this life is not keeping track of the weddings and receptions and events we’ve held in our yard.  I wish I’d kept a log of them, the 100s of them with who we celebrated.  This evening we had another beautiful party here for my friend Shelley’s son and his bride.

I will just put in a word here for John, the gardener.  He works sun up to sun down in the yard preparing for these events.  He has turned our yard into a Garden of Eden, truly.  And this week, it was in full bloom.

I was too busy to take pictures of the yard, but for this record, we had a beautiful evening.

A really fun 60s band set up in the Farm House driveway.  Oldies and Goodies!

Our record one summer was 9 receptions here in the yard.  We only have 2 wedding receptions here this summer, and a few other fun events like our upcoming missionary reunion.  Our yard is a blessing to so many.  I love being surrounded by beauty and friends.
