A Holy Union

Wow. ...Wow. It's hard to put into words the experience of yesterday. Amazing. Incredible. Spiritual. Breathtaking. Sad. Happy. Fun. Exhausting. Surreal. Unbelievable. They looked so happy. Venessa was absolutely beautiful and glowing. I can't believe my baby is married. How did he grow up so fast? Here are some highlights from the day so that all of you that couldn't make it can feel like you were there. From waiting FOREVER for them to come out of the temple, to the party at 'The Pie', to the beautiful reception and Jeff's dad surprising us with him singing 'You Raise Me Up', here is a peek into our day. Thank you to all who came and to all who wanted to but couldn't and were sending thoughts of well wishes all day. (Michele :)

What a beautiful day! I'm so sad to have missed it. You looked beautiful, Shar, as the mother of the groom! How fun to see everyone--I'm so happy to see your mom is doing well. I'm sure it was just the best day ever for all of you! Congratulations to Brandon and Venessa!

Oh, I enjoyed seeing the pictures of the day; I just love weddings. Whenever we get near a temple, I always look to see if there are any wedding parties--there's just something about a bride that makes me all gooey inside.

Congratulations to Brandon and Venessa--may their lives be eternally joyful.

About Me

Bluffdale, UT, United States
I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. I've been married to Jeff - the love of my life, for almost 21 years. I'm the mother of four beautiful and amazing kids. Brandon is 19, Elise is 17, Erika is 14 and Bryce is 11. I love to spend time with my family, go to movies, play games, go to movies, go out to eat and go to movies. I love diet cherry coke, music, especially soft rock and religious music. I hate grumpy people, bad service and other people's hands in bags of potato chips. I love to go on Cruises...Oh, and I really love to go to movies!

My cute hubby!

Just a typical night out on the town
