shally and the bob

Congratulations to our dear friends, Bob and Shally!

It was a lovely ceremony and a fun banquet. My main impression was that they both seemed so happy to get married--Bob was giddy (rarely see that) and Shally was also really, really happy. It was heart-warming to witness. Here are a few pics from the day...

this little boy has the cutest (and biggest) cheeks! :)

Shally and Bob did something really unique and special for their banquet centerpieces--instead of purchasing a diamond engagement ring, they chose to use that money for guests at each table to pick out a gift for a Christian relief organization (whether to buy a goat, a well, or pay for education for a third-world country). It was a really neat and inspiring idea.

After the banquet, we had an "after-party": surprise games for the bride and groom. It was a lot of fun and very entertaining (for us, anyway--not so sure for them!).

first game: blindfolded apple bobbing

this is after the second game (which, for the privacy of the bride and groom, I didn't post pics:))

They were such good sports! Congratulations again, Bob and Shally!
