For the past five days I have been in heaven. (That is why you haven’t heard from me, I have been very busy enjoying a rather heavenly experience). Now I am back, and wouldn’t you know, here I am, ready to tell Y O U all about it.

I gathered with my family to celebrate (and I mean CELEBRATE) the union of…

Chas & Samantha.

We left for UT on Friday morning, but before we did, we were all a flutter! All activity, all energy, all thoughts somehow led back to Chas and Sam and their much anticipated nuptials.

For example, Millie decided to draw a picture of Chas and Sam.

And here is your portrait Mr. & Mrs. Kelly.

I think you look smashing. FYI: Sam you are the one with the flowing locks on the left, in case you were wondering. She WAS working from an actual picture of you guys so she got your lovely blue eyes just right. One of the many mysteries in this ever so colorful portrait is the reference to BYU – in the upper left hand corner. I asked her about this, and she was vague, but she did have a reason! One should never ask artists such questions anyway.

The following day the girls got their hands on the paper towel roll. I just let them go for it. Why not?

And I was so glad that I did because in the midst of their playing Millie decided that it was the”special carpet” that Sam would walk down when she married Chas. Aw shucks! Be still my little mommy’s heart!

Clara tried it out for you, Sam. It was lovely. We’d love for you to have a go, whenever you make your way to our house. Wink, wink!

While the girls colored pictures and prepared magical walk ways out of paper towels I was much occupied with

WHAT TO WEAR

to the wedding.

Cue next post for the outcome!
