And from that moment on, the clock started ticking down until the moment when our "baby girl" would become a wife. Such a fun path we took--a special family shower in South Dakota hosted by her aunt...

| featuring her Grandmother's beloved handkerchiefs! |
a path that had now led us to a morning of decorating...carefully placing all the decorations that were made with love and a lump in my throat all summer long, while I tried to figure out how the years had flown so quickly by...
Then off to get all gussied up...
and watch my baby girl become a beautiful bride. The love in their eyes says it all, and a year later I am joyfully wishing them a happy first anniversary and also celebrating their recent move into their new home!
I'll leave you with their beautiful wedding song, The Blessing. I don't think they could have picked anything more lovely to express their deep love for each other. God bless you, Caitlin and Andrew!
In the morning when you rise
I bless the sun, I bless the skies
I bless your lips, I bless your eyes
My blessing goes with you
I bless the sun, I bless the skies
I bless your lips, I bless your eyes
My blessing goes with you
In the night time when you sleep
Oh, I bless you while a watch I keep
As you lie in slumber deep
My blessing goes with you
Oh, I bless you while a watch I keep
As you lie in slumber deep
My blessing goes with you
This is my prayer for you
There for you, ever true
Each every day for you
In everything you do
There for you, ever true
Each every day for you
In everything you do
And when you come to me
And hold me close to you
I bless you
And you bless me too
And hold me close to you
I bless you
And you bless me too
When your weary heart is tired
If the world would leave you uninspired
When nothing more of love's desire
My blessing goes with you
If the world would leave you uninspired
When nothing more of love's desire
My blessing goes with you
When the storms of life are strong
When you're wounded, when you don't belong
When you no longer hear my song
My blessing goes with you
When you're wounded, when you don't belong
When you no longer hear my song
My blessing goes with you
This is my prayer for you
There for you, ever true
Each every day for you
In everything you do
There for you, ever true
Each every day for you
In everything you do
And when you come to me
And hold me close to you
I bless you
And you bless me too
I bless you
And you bless me too
And hold me close to you
I bless you
And you bless me too
I bless you
And you bless me too
