One last wedding remembrance

Sort of. Well, this isn't really related to Emily's wedding, but rather on the trip out to Goshen.

When we got to Lima, Ohio and it's outskirts, we noticed signs in front yards requesting people to vote for -- are you ready for this? -- DEB DREXLER for JUDGE. Yes, my sister -- well, not my sister but someone who has assumed her name -- is running for Judge in Allen County. And while we were listening to Rush Limbaugh Deb Drexler ran an ad on his program. Does that mean she's ultra conservative? Who knows.

I was sorely tempted to stop the car and usurp one of those signs for myself, but I didn't.

So Deb Drexler -- here's to you. I hope you win. I like your name at least.

NOTE: For those of you who don't know Deb Drexler was my sister's name before she married her first and only husband.

NOTE #2: I posted an album on Facebook of Emily's wedding photos. Friends of Judi Hahn can view it. Actually, I said anyone who wanted to see it could, but I don't know how to get those of you who don't have Facebook into Facebook without being a friend. Try Facebook.com and fish around, maybe you'll find the rest of the pictures.

Just a couple of pictures






Above are just a couple of the pictures from Emily's wedding. Unfortunately, my light settings didn't turn out too well, and my battery ran all the way down.


I know: Excuses, excuses, excuses. At least you can get an idea of how beautiful Emily looked. And Jeff didn't look too bad, either!

Emily gave all of my grandchildren which were in attendance the thrills of their lives. One picture I took was of David and Rose with Emily and Jeff. David asked me if he could have his picture taken with Emily and I told him if she said it was okay, I would take their picture. Another nice thing that Lori did was to give each of the girls (Annie, Grace, and Rose) one of the bridesmaids bouquets (because all three girls tried to catch the bride's bouquet and were disappointed when they didn't catch it. David, on the other hand, did get the garter!

So enjoy these few pictures. As I get time I'll add to the "album." Oh, yeah, the "old" man with Emily is her father, my brother, Mark.

Watch for it!

Okay, so I'm back from THE WEDDING ensconced in my cocoon which includes my laptop, getting ready to give you some new updates on my life in Runnemede. I want to try to find a few pictures, first.

I was unable to attend the family "meeting" after lunch on Sunday because I don't do night driving. As it was we got home at 7:00 p.m. just after sunset. Nonetheless, I was able to garner several topics to write about, and hopefully my niece, Lori, picked up some more at the gathering after lunch.

I just know I missed the best part of the whole weekend -- except for the wedding, of course. But I also know my physical limitations and knew we needed to be on the road, not enjoying laughs and chuckles with the family.

So, in the next few days, I'll be writing about some really neat events that occurred in Runnemede when I was a child or when my siblings were children.

Emily Rose gets married

Just a few pictures to whet your appetite. I'll be sending more tomorrow. Alan and I are wiped out, and these are the best of the best.

Well, I thought I was going to be able to show you some of the wedding, but apparent BLOGSPOT is having difficulties and my pictures won't upload, so, I apologize.

The wedding was beautiful. Emily was beautiful. The mother of the bride, Sue, was beautiful. And she WALKED all the way down that aisle! It was very difficult for her, but she did it! Yeah.
