To love and cherish

the bride and her father as they walked into the church and down the aisle.

Lol. So another wedding has taken place in the family. ^_^  This time someone is married INTO the family.

Which makes it 2 down and 9 more to go for grandma. Lol. In order of birth, 3 more before me (hahaha. Thank God still got buffer.)

I love listening to wedding vows. The priest's words were very apt- to remind couples of the ability to always learn to love and have faith in each other. To accommodate wrongs and to give each other space to grow. Very realistic and a very good reminder. ^_^

Two weddings in the family one year after another. The cousins are very well versed in their roles at a wedding by now. Last year's wedding of 800 saw my aunt as the commanding officer and all of us executing our roles accordingly. Haha, this year- everything was on autopilot and also thank God that it was 1/4 the size of last year's affair. I love these quiet moments of jokes and laughter behind the scenes. <3 God is really good to me, truly.

Couz looked like he was the happiest man alive today. =) I've never seen him smile so much since childhood at having found his very own "best friend", "soulmate" and "life partner" (said in speech). ^_^ I'm glad for him. We were joking that at the entrance of my cousin in law, the average IQ of my family just went up by a good 50 points (LSE top of her cohort and oxford masters, consultant) but then again he was a head prefect, an Imperial college engineer graduate and a standard chartered associate himself. =_="

I realised that my family and extended family is really special and I really truly love and miss them each time we are apart- but I've been seeing more of them since the incident happened with dad and crises do indeed draw us together.

/edit: I also had the supreme pleasure of having two GIGs join me for the wedding lunch today- amie and joan. <3 thanks for coming! and we then had a really good girl time out (okay, with ryan too after that..lol!) I thank God for them reflecting His faithfulness in my life. And I also thank God for great HTHT sessions that we have. God is really good, amen? =) He meets all our needs. Spiritual, emotional, mental, physical, financial, material, and any other possible -al. <3 We praise You, Lord!
