It was a great weekend, although it was a busy one. I'm so happy for Dave and Jessica, and thankful to have another sister-in-law. I was blessed to be able to go to the temple on Thursday night, and be with them when they both received their endowments. It's been a while since I've been to the temple for something other than a youth temple trip, and it felt really great to be there. Friday evening we (the Mayfield girls) went and decorated for the reception, which was held at Jessica's house. She wanted a garden-party theme, and I think we did a great job of creating that. (Although I really shouldn't take any credit here... it all goes to my other talented sisters-in-law. I just helped out where needed.) Saturday morning we headed to Birmingham for the sealing. It was a beautiful ceremony, and again I felt blessed to be there. After the temple, we headed to Alisha's house for a luncheon, which was hosted by the groom's family. We all pitched in a brough some yummy food! The reception was at 6:30 that evening. It was a hot and humid day Saturday, and we were all "glistening", but it was fun visiting with friends and family. Here are a few pics of the happy couple, and the reception (decorations):
