My Aunt Mar is coming to my wedding! I am SO excited. In the beginning, it just didn't look like it would work out for her to come, and somehow, it has worked out that she can! Oh! I am SO glad!!
AND
Surprise of surprises... my GREAT-Grandmother is coming, too!! Isn't that the coolest thing that you have ever heard?! I never in a million years thought she could come. BUT SHE IS!!
Both of these women have been such strong influences in my life. Aunt Mar has been someone that I have always looked up to and wanted to be like. She is always so happy and cheerful. She can find the good in ANY situation. No matter how many lemons life has handed her, Aunt Mar has always been able to make the sweetest lemonade.
And my Great-Grandmother--! I am so amazed by her. She is (I think) 93 years old and as lively as ever. She is bright, and clear, and TOUGH! When she sets her mind to something, she goes for it! All the way.
My uncle Newel is coming, too! When I saw him/met him a couple months ago, he told me that if I sent him an invitation, he'd come. And he is!
I am so blessed!

Hurray! I'm so excited. Aunt Mar called me last night to tell me. I was so surprised Great-Grandma was coming, but so happy for you. Love you dear!!
OH I am so excited to meet them, along with your other family members.
That's such a wonderful thing! It's a very important day in your life and I'm so happy that they are able to be there. Looking forward to meeting them all.
Grandma and Grandpa Rich told me yesterday that as long as Grandpa is feeling well they plan to come to the reception here in Texas. I will of course be there as well. Love you, Dad
Well, such nice things were said in this entry, I can't find the words to comment...
perhaps because you were a little too nice and the words for me (not great-grandma) were undeserved.
Anyway, so happy that you are excited. So happy that I will be there on your blessed day.
Love you lots!
