A beautiful Monday after a very busy but good weekend. The wedding on Friday, The Vols football game on Saturday and church, breakfast, a bit of shopping and clearing Tina’s room out on Sunday. Yes, I think I am glad to see Monday here. A relaxing, quite, take time to do things, day. Meaning no hurry and scurrying. Time to taste the coffee.

The wedding was beautiful. It was simple, with just family and the photographer at the courthouse. The bride, Tammy looked so pretty in her off white dress with a lovely bouquet of roses and fall flowers. Her hair was pulled back and held in place with a pearl barrette, her jewelry was pearl and gold earrings and diamond earrings, and pearl and gold necklace. She had a white stole with a fur collar, and white ankle strap heels. She looked stunning.

The groom, Jerry, wore a navy blue suite, white shirt and brown tie. (fall color). Noah, Tammy’ s son, wore a navy blue suit with a white shirt and brown tie. (fall color). Both men wore boutonnieres of a fall colored rose. Dottie, Tammy’s mom, wore a burgundy dress with gold heels, and gold jewelry. She had a black stole with a fur collar. I, Jerry’s mom, wore a black dress trimmed in white , with a gold jacket, black shoes and gold jewelry. Tammy’s daughter wore a brown dress, brown shoes and gold earrings with a cream colored coat. Tina wore a blown pants suit with fall colored leaves of shades of golds. Brown wedges and a cream colored sweater. Her jewelry was pearl and gold earrings. Tammy’s dad wore navy blue slacks and a blue and white plaid shirt.

The reception was held at Calhoun’s on the River. there were four round tables plus a smaller table up front for the bride and groom and a corner table in one corner for the guest book and gifts. Both Tammy and Jerry specified NO GIFTS but so many pay no attention to that. Tammy’s brother and his wife and her two children were there. Many of Tammy;s friends and their spouses attended. Some of Jerry’s co-workers and their spouses were in attendance as well. All so friendly, interesting and fun.

The food, served buffet style, was Prime Rib, Salmon, twice baked potatoes, almond green beans, creamed spinach, salad and rolls. The wedding cake, which was a red velvet cake with white icing, was beautiful. All delirious. What a wonderful evening with wonderful people. We now have Mr. & Mrs. Jerald Lynn Walters.
