And the award goes to . . . seriously, this group!  The children were so well behaved, the fun-loving connection between all six of them was just wonderful, and the ease and joy of all involved made me so happy to be a part of their story.

It was a day that threatened rain, but we had perfect timing.  We started with a first look on the beach, traveled to Krista’s family beach, stopped and played in a vineyard and then went for a ceremony in yard of the Boathouse on Old Mission peninsula.  We made it through all of the outside things that were planned, with perfect weather.  It wasn’t until we got in the car to leave that the rain came.

Excellent day, with happy people and flawless timing; there is nothing else I can ask for.

Tonya and John were married at Boyne Mountain on a beautiful late summer day.  Tonya’s daughter, McKenzie, sang for the ceremony and gave the best speech I’ve heard in years.  This little, tiny, young lady expressed herself so well in front of a very large group of people.  She expressed her appreciation for the way that John loves she and her mother.  It really made me smile that Tonya has raised her daughter to be so well read and appreciative of the people around her.  And to see a “guy’s guy” like John be so proud of the family he has taken as his own, let’s me know that he is a really special man.  This is one lucky family!
