Last Saturday, we attended the wedding of Jeff and Noree Wegmeyer
in Rockford at the Sinnissippi Rose Gardens.
We grew up with Jeff and his siblings,
and we met Noree about 10 years ago.
It was nice knowing both sides of the wedding party.
Mom made the dresses for all of the girls except for the bride's dress.
The flower girls were so cute!
The bride's father performed most of the wedding ceremony.
Jeff just graduated from West Point and is now a 2nd Lt.
He will be stationed in Colorado until leaving for his one year tour of duty,
and he was almost called back from his leave the night before the wedding because of the wildfires in that state.
He almost missed his own wedding!
It was a great place for taking pictures because the grounds were lovely.
This river was covering up the wedding site until just last week.
Thankfully, it receded in time for the wedding.
Mel is holding 5 month old, Emma.
She is the youngest daughter of some friends who were also there.
Hmm...Jase, did you get something on your pants?
From the look Mel is giving, I would assume the answer is "Yes."
Oh well, it won't show up in the pictures!
There were a number of ducks, geese, and even two swans in the pond.
This mama and her little babies were so cute! 
The swan did not like the Canadian geese and kept chasing them away from the others.
And now for a few pictures of the beautiful flowers and grounds!
The roses were gorgeous!
With the sunlight on this one, I think this rose is my favorite.God's handiwork is beautiful!!!!
