Jeremy + Jill


He met her through mutual friends in January and brought her home to meet me in July.  I knew the moment I laid eyes on her it was only a matter of time that she would be his and he would be hers.


His job on Friday was to find the spot.  She wanted water, they thought the beach but that turned out not to be, so when I got there we scouted out the lake.


He found his spot

and laid his claim.


She chose black and ivory as her colors but Jeremy loves orange so he added that in his tie.  While we were at the store I kept showing him black ties, we looked at silver and red.  Then he spotted this one with orange in it and it was so him.  It just seemed perfect.

This is their friends and Mark is what their friends call his twin brother.  Not so much from looks although they do favor but from mannerisms.  This is Mark and Tara.


and this is baby Mark.

As we waited for the bride

the boys strike a pose.

and skip some rocks.

and wait, not anxiously but patiently.  Jill's Mom had a terrible time getting down for the wedding.   First her flight was canceled then she was flown to the next town over and then she was put on stand by and then they lost her luggage and it didn't show up until Sunday afternoon.  So she and Jill had to make a fast and furious shopping trip for a dress.


All the waiting paid off



When we looked up the hill and see her coming in her little Ford chariot.


I made this for her to have something to carry, I don't think she needed it but I totally enjoyed making it and it turned out to be a perfect way to add some orange to the brides ensemble.

Sweet Jillian McCauley



He finally sees his bride and the dress.














Mr and Mrs Jeremy Buckley.









The momma's signed the marriage certificate as the two witnesses.


At the end of the day, it was a perfect and beautiful wedding.

Home Sweet Home

I don't think he calls this barrack room home sweet home, but I know he was happy to have his feet back in the USA.


Thank you all so much for your prayers and well wishes.  We had a great time together and he is coming home for Thanksgiving AND Christmas this year.  And that is a good thing.  

Next for us is his move to North Carolina's Ft. Bragg  and then he faces Afganistan.  Please keep him and all soldiers in your prayers as well as our leaders of this country.  They have some mighty big decisions to make and . . .  well let's just keep praying for this land -  home of the free because of the brave.

Sorry I haven't been on much lately.  I love you ladies, see ya soon.  :)

He's Coming Home

We snuck out of town for a few days.  Went down to Mexico to watched the waves hit the shore and do a little snorkeling.  It was great, BUT greater still  . . .  my boy is coming home.  He has been in Iraq for one year and his tour is over.  We received a phone call saying this weekend for sure, so we jumped back on the jet, flew home got in last night around midnight and we are out of here pdq.  I should be hugging him by the morning. 


These two picture were taken when he was home on leave in June.  He is a single guy with no children but all kids love him.


These last three picture were taken one  year ago when I saw him off to Iraq.  The little girl is his Sargent's youngest.  

Thank you to all who have come by.  I will back on next week.  

Blessings to all.
