You may have just read my post of my trip to Seattle but the reason for the trip was to witness my niece Brianna marry her husband Ken. Ken and Brianna have been dating for a couple of years and they seem to fit each other very well. Even tho the trip was long I was excited for the day to begin.
It started with Jack, Patty, Ashley and Chris stopping by my room to change. Even tho they had just drove for 4 hours they were very upbeat. After they dressed we
met Michelle, Luke and Johonna and went out for breakfast. I was sitting at a table with six young adults and a little girl of the next generationl. It seemed like just yesterday when Michelle, Jack, and Ashley would spend the night at Grans and I would be cooking them breakfast. Where had the time gone.

After breakfast we made our way to the church. A beautiful brick
Catholic church. We entered and Jessi found us and told us where to sit. It was not long until the service began. As I watched Brianna and Ken come down the asile together they both seemed so confident. The did not seem nervous at all. Again I wondered where all of the years had gone. It seemed like yesterday that I escorted Brianna and Sara to New York to sp
end the summer with their mom. Brianna was so serious on the plane while Sara wanted to run up and down the asiles. It is just one of the differences that these two had at one time. Today Sara and her other sisters stood with Brianna as she entered into her future life as a married women. This was my first nuptial mass. It was beautiful.

After the mass we made our way to the reception on the other side of town. This was my first day light look at Seattle since I had arrvied at night. I was a little confused by all the overpasses but the city was beautiful. The reception place had a wonderful view of the city from
across the bay. It was a very relaxing setting. The food and conservations were wonderful. It was nice to see the neices and nephews and get caught up on their lives. Again my mind wondered to earlier years and the time we spent together. Back then they seemed to need us grown ups but now they are the grown ups. On their own and ready to make their mark on the world. No one knows what the future holds but I hope that Brianna and Ken and my other nieces and nephews will be able to take time for the small things. A trip to the Zoo, or a game of hair dresser will let you take time to laugh and enjoy what god has given you!!
