It has been a lot for a very long time. Now I am looking forward to doing very little for a a while.
The wedding was beautiful. It took place outside at a sailing squadron in Sarasota. Anna and Jordan are both big sailors, and so there were many sailing themed decorations.
Sydney brought her new boyfriend. Which was a big deal, because no casual plus ones were allowed. So that makes him a non-casual boyfriend. She is here with us until she starts her new job at the end of July. Between now and then she just needs to get an apartment in Bocca and move out of her apartment in Gainesville.
I didn't get many photos, and the official ones are not back from the photographer yet, She won't send out unedited proofs and so that will take a bit of time. There was a sunset, which felt strange, because we see the sunrise on the east coast. Sunsets are pretty too.
At the end of the evening, the groomsmen threw Jordan into the bay and Anna followed. She was not planning to save her wedding dress, and so it was fine that they all got a little wet.
How has your month been so far? I do plan to dig into some orange scraps today. Mindless sewing is just what I need right now. I do have plans for the baby quilt though. It is going to be wonky and free form sailboats and nautical flags that spell out the baby's name. It is going to be James by the way, we found out at the wedding that it will be a boy. They hid the name in nautical flags on the seating chart for the wedding.

The wedding sounds fun and happy! I do hope this weekend is restful for you - and maybe there'll be some time to sew a few scraps together. Thanks for hosting us!
Congrats on a lovely wedding! It looks like so much fun. But not as much fun as making a special baby quilt! Thanks for keeping so scrappy going even through all these life events, we really appreciate your efforts.
Congratulations to the newlyweds, and the whole family! Sounds like the wedding was wonderful. And how exciting to add learning the gender and name of the baby too. I hope you finally get some down time for awhile and just relax.
Weddings are so much fun, what a lovely picture of you and your husband. I'm glad things will slow down for you now, enjoy the calm.
Congratulations! It looks like a fun wedding.
Hope you are enjoying a restful weekend after last week's festivities, Angela!
What a beautiful setting for a wedding. Yes, now it is time for you time to rest! Thank you for your encouragement to use scraps!
What a beautiful setting for a wedding!! and you were stunning!!! LOVE your dress! What fun. Rest up my dear haha!
Everyone looks pretty happy at the wedding. You have had a lot in a short amount of time. So glad Sydney found a job, that's an achievement in the current employment climate. Hope you've had some time to wind down and get in a good bit of sanity stitching.
