The beginning of Lent is a little exciting almost. It’s a great reminder that, even though it feels like it, winter will not last forever! That short month can seem VERY long in New England with the seemingly endless cold weather! Getting some sunshine, lots of time outside(without 6 layers), and seeing actual colors with all the trees, grass and flowers just does wonders for my mindset. My absolute favorite time of year to go to Florida is February. We had just gotten back from a nice vacation with my parents where we got to enjoy a lot of sunshine and warm weather. And yet, during Lent, I found myself in that very spot for the majority of those very long 6 weeks. Ironically, the last blog post I wrote in February was about trust and living in a way that was not just survival mode.
My goal of blogging once a month flew out the proverbial window during Lent! As one of my friends likes to say, it was one of the “Lentiest Lents”. Since a picture is worth a thousand words, I will share a bunch and let them speak for themselves. Sarah was so excited leading up to the shower and she enjoyed every moment of the day! Once the shower ended, Sarah kept saying how happy she was and that her face hurt from smiling so much.:) It definitely took a village, but it all came together. The weather was amazing and so many people helped to make the day really special. Thankfully, the rescheduling was only a (frustrating) hiccup and "Take 2" of Sarah's shower happened this past weekend. It is so crazy that we are still dealing with it 2 years later! Some of you will remember that Jon and Marisa had quite a few rescheduled and altered wedding plans back in 2020.
In another deja vu moment, Sarah's bridal shower, that was supposed to take place at the end of June, had to be postponed because Covid went through most of our house. It's very surreal to think that once we get to August, in the last three years, three of our children will have gotten married and given us three grandsons! This time it's our daughter, Sarah, preparing to walk down the aisle. This might feel a little deja vu to my readers that have been around for a while.but we are planning another family wedding.
