Happy Friday, Blogger’s…I was just looking at my iPhotos and I realized I never put a post up on the son’s wedding in December. No judgement as I did break my arm on December 22nd. I have to add I have gotten pretty good reports on the healing as I it’s still healing but soooo much better. I tell you one thing I’ve learned, I have slowed down a lot and have become more mindful of what I’m doing. Really don’t want that to happen again.
Back to the Wedding we had in December with Matthew our 3rd son to his beautiful bride and our new daughter Hannah. By the by, she was an absolutely beautiful bride and we love you so much Mz. Hannah and love you are such a wonderful addition to #frainsthename <3… I know we will have many good times to come. We’ll be out in a few weeks, and rumor has it that Dad’s going to treat us to some really good food 😉 …
Below are some pictures of their magical day back in December. It was so great I waited until I got home to break the arm, actually it would’ve been better if I’d of not broken it at all. That’s in the rearview mirror. I even dared to wear Red b/c my mom (RIP) would’ve so loved it that I did that. She taught me well <3 …
Finally I’m going to post the video of Bill Medley/Jennifer Warren singing the song, “The Time of my Life”. I always said that when I died, I would know I was in heaven if Patrick Swayze was there and he danced that song with me. Matthew new the story well b/c he is a retired professional dancer and he new just how much I loved that dance and movie. When I asked he what song we were going to do the Mother/Son Dance too, he said some song I never heard of, “A Simple Man,” by Leonard Skynard. I never heard it, so that evening after the rehearsal dinner I went back to the hotel room and listened to it so I would have some frame of reference.
FF to the that evening and the Mother/Son Dance and here’s what happened. I was in shock when I heard that song come over. I even looked over my shoulder to make sure Patrick Swayze wasn’t there and I wasn’t in heaven. I know my dance looked nothing like that of the one in Dirty Dancing but he made me feel, well there are just no words to explain how I felt. But as a mom I was so proud of the man he has become and that I am loved. There is no better feeling in the world than I had that night. I have watched that video IDK how many times but it got me through my broken arm on days that were so difficult. He’s just an amazing person and he found an amazing partner who we just love and over the moon with…Love you, Mz. Hannah 😉 … Enjoy the video and make sure you watch it til the end b/c that’s the best part !!!!

Sorry this took so long to post but you know the hand is finally getting better. Enjoy all the pics and I know my dancing wasn’t even close to the movie but that somehow just didn’t matter. I felt so loved and I think he really made me look good. I love all of you and thank you so much for the best memory a mom could ever have !!!!
