You are so very lucky to have in-laws that you hold so dear. You are going to be a pro at weddings after this year. Congrats to all of you as I know you all care about Grace a great deal and feel that she is a classy lady for Abe. I will finally concede that this is more important than a June retreat and just save my projects for November :)

Congratulations! Was it your sweet post that pushed him over the edge? Moms have a way of doing that, you know:) Seriously, they look gorgeous together and what a festive few months you have ahead of you.

Congrats neighbor! That's exciting news, and only 4 months to recover from the last one. Grace is VERY lucky to get you as a mother-in-law! If I weren't happily married with three adorable kids (and was a LOT younger), I'd wanna be your next daughter-in-law! Can I just be adopted???

Alisa said...

So exciting! Hooray for them- and for you!
love the cute photo!
(July 1st is an excellent day to be married-we will celebrate our 14th this year on 7-1...)

Congratulations! Wow, another wedding to plan. How fun!!! I am sure you have already started on the plans. Let the scrapbook retreat buddies know if there is anything we can do to help.

Anita said...

Oh Jane, that's just wonderful! Two in one year - I'm impressed!

Cali said...

Mom,
I always knew we'd drop like flies together. That's what you get for raising us so close... none of us want to be left out or left behind. Poor Ty, atleast you know he's safe for 2.5 more years.
I love you,
Cali

How were you able to contain your self today? She seems like such an awesome girl! It is good that you are starting off with such a good friendship with her. She will cherish her relationship with her mother in law. I think women in our generation have learned the art of being great mothers in laws. It is so fun!!! I love my daughter in law, they bring me such joy, they are wonderful wifes to our sons and mothers to our precious grandchildren!!! Wonderfull journey ahead!
PS Great parable today.

What an exciting year for your family! Best Wishes

Ande said...

Yay! I'm glad we don't have to refer to her as "Abe's friend" anymore. IF ever there was a ridiculous title :)

I am so excited for them. They seem to make each other so happy. I agree with Cali...though. Poor Ty. Who am I kidding? Poor me. Ty and I are getting left behind!

Good job raising some amazing kids Mom. You are amazing. I love you.

Julie said...

Hooray! We are so happy for Abe. She's darling and so lucky to get to be a member of your family!

Mindy said...

Your getting lots of reasons to celebrate this year. My condolences to your bank account.

Chandra said...

They are such a cute couple. I could tell when we went to lunch and you spoke of Grace that you loved her already. She is lucky to be getting you for a mother in law. I'm with Mary. Condolences to the bank account....I know what two weddings that close can do....but it is worth it.

Nikki said...

Wow! Another wedding! She's a lucky girl to be marrying into your family. And now I have to definitively disagree with your assessment of you and Calvin being an old boring couple.
