Wedding Celebration

As I have mentioned in earlier posts, my sister lives in Okinawa, Japan with her new husband. He is stationed there, in the Air Force. They reconnect after many years in a sweet tale and they got married in Japan right before Christmas. They are home for a 5 week leave, so his parents and mine threw a great wedding reception to celebrate their union. It was a total blast and it is such a great thing to be joyous about the great love they share for one another!

It was so wonderful to party with them-even though they got married 9 months ago! I am looking forward to getting to know my new brother-in-law, and hate that they will soon be leaving us once again. I am so grateful they have found each other and wish them a lifetime of happiness!
