The Proposal

Derrick wanted to make the proposal special so he called Katie the sister of Kristie to see what could be done to make that happen. He chose to allow the family to be a part of this momentous occasion and we all were thrilled. Love was in the air and through a turn of events, it was scheduled that we would all get aboard a horse and buggy in St. Augustine and Derrick would do the honors, even getting on one knee.(Not pictured here but he did).

We all were a part of it in the Nation’s oldest city, St. Augustine in December of 2021 and afterwords ate at a luxurious restaurant to seal the deal. Great fun was had by all.

They were married last week in November at the family Homestead in Jacksonville, Kristie’s hometown. It was wonderful. They will live happily ever after.

See you tomorrow,

We Had a Wedding

In December of 2021, Derrick, my daughter’s boyfriend proposed to her in St. Augustine on the mount of a horse and carriage. It was sweet and heart-felt. Fast forward to November 5th and they married among friends and family members. Congrats to the happy couple.

While they both live in Alabama, Kristie wanted to marry in her own hometown so she did. She was born and raised in Jacksonville and she came home to seal the deal. More to come….

See you tomorrow,

We Planned for a Wedding

This has been a fun journey getting ready for our daughter’s wedding. In December of 2021, her boyfriend came home with her to Jacksonville. She lives and works in Alabama where she met him but she wanted to get married in her hometown.

To make things special, he rented a horse and buggy in St. Augustine and invited the family to come along. It was a fun night with love in the air.

Derrick got on his knees and asked Kristie to marry him and that began some ten months of a lot of work at the family homestead. Details coming…..

See you tomorrow,
