On May 17th, we were able to celebrate the wedding of my cousin (once removed) Nicole and her prince charming Eric and send them laughing and goofing together into married bliss.
Her big day brought together family that hadn’t been together in years. My mom, her siblings and their children (only missing one) were finally all in the same room again, reminding us of childhood memories.
As children, the cousins would all gather at “PaPa Hat’s” house. And while my great grandpa would fret over all us cousins getting into his rose garden, we would be in childhood heaven digging, exploring and getting dirty on the hill behind his small home.
The Saturday after the wedding we all gathered at a local park, explored little river that ran through it and caught up on several years of togetherness.
It was a wonderful weekend to remember our something old, and celebrate Nicole’s something new.
