A Wedding

In the Country.

Our good friends down the road had a wedding for their daughter under the trees in their three acre back yard and were kind enough to invite us. We went to the wedding then milked the cow, fed the calves and went back for the dinner and dancing.

As usual I annoyed the wedding photographer a LOT.  And brought home piles of left overs for the pigs dinner.

So here are some joyful images.

All the calves are good – even Little. Little drunk two full bottles yesterday. The first time he has drunk enough food in a day.

Today is Tomoyo’s last day working. She leaves tomorrow.  Back to school for her. She did such good work. Then we have a break before Hugo, a young man from France, arrives for a few months and then one of The Fellowship is coming for a week. Exciting.

What a grand day.

I hope you have a lovely day.

Love your friend on the farm

  1. A lovely bride with eyes full of happiness . . .but those gorgeous kids feeling SO grown-up no doubt, do take the proverbial cake . . . Love those joyous chairs! Glad you were close enough to come and go and not have to leave your four-leggeds waiting for supper!!

  2. what lovely photos of such a happy day! And I’m kicking up my heels to hear how much better Little is. Good for you to have a bit of R and R!

  3. it’s the generations that always get to me when there is a joyful celebration. There is little better than 3 and 4 or more generations of family together, all smiles, sharing a wonderful time. You have such good friends to invite you to share the joy. What a glorious day, all the best to the bridge and groom for a happy future.

    Sorry to see Tomoyo go, perhaps we’ll see her again at some time in the future. With nobody there to be kitchen mama and take some of the work from your shoulders, don’t forget to take little breaks for yourself. Good job Little – keep improving!

  4. What a perfect day for an outdoor wedding. Isn’t that just the best place for a wedding, after all? A beautiful bride; and sending happily-ever-after wishes for them. I love the colorful and black-and-white bows on the chairs, elegant and festive. The girls in frilly dresses and sharp-dressed fellas make the day complete.

  5. I loathe the whole thing of wedding photography and you’ve shown how it should be done. At our wedding, some 40 years ago, a high proportion of the guests were photographers and I’m happy to say that no wedding pictures were taken at all..yet we’re still here and together:)
