mix it with serenity

and i'm left with

acceptance.

i can only change what i can.

Manelle and RIchard

went to a wedding today. it was held at the church I grew up in and had served as an altar server at for many years. if i ever get married, and i was to be in a church, and the bride-to-be would consent, i'd like it to be in that church.

it was a very beautiful day to begin with. bright, sunny day, not too hot or windy. we drove down to the island to St. Mary's Cathedral Basilica. It has been there since 1847 and withstood the 1900 storm. it's also the oldest catholic church in Texas.

didn't know if Ma'nelle had an altar server lined up, so i checked, and they didn't have one yet, so, i dressed up for it. The bride's motif was yellow/light yellow. She also had a lot of yellow roses, which I think smells the best. The ceremony was typical catholic wedding length, but it was still beautiful.

the reception was very nice. dancing was involved and we all danced til it was time to go. beautiful day all around.

on a side note, i've served for many weddings now, most of which for people I grew up with, etc. can't help but daydream, ya know? anyway, i'll post pics later on myspace
