And this is Leah and Ryan.  They're having their first baby and it's a boy!
This is my best friend, Cynthia, and her oldest granddaughter, Marlee.  Such a sweet girl.
Sometimes there are strange looking talents.
While there, I ran into this older gentleman who was fascinated with the butterflies.  He was delightful to talk to.
Yesterday was my friend's birthday.

(Now, don't tell her I posted this picture because she will kill me.  But she never looks at the blog, so I'm hopeful I'll get away with it.)
It was a beautiful ceremony on the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay.
My friend, Kim, and her husband, Kent, gave away their daughter today in marriage.
These are our friends for almost 30 years.  We see them every couple of weeks and chat on the phone about as often.  We laugh a lot.  Cynthia will not like this photo, but I do, so too bad.

Now, for the rest of the story ... So after I finish taking my photos and get seated in the restaurant, Cynthia says to me, "So, are you still taking a picture of the day?"  "Yes," I say, "going on three years."  I guess she's not one of my followers. :)
I finally feel like my life is getting back to normal.  This morning I found time to get a few miles in on the elliptical and even worked out on the weights--YEOW!  I'm already feeling pain, but that's a good thing.  We had a wedding to attend this afternoon and Amy made a beautiful bride.  Weddings always make me cry because everyone is so overjoyed.  It was a beautiful wedding with a ceremony that mirrored our own.  We wish Danny and Amy every happiness in their new life together.
