forty something's

This weekend was one of celebration.  40.

Friday night was Sarah's surprise party (Dec. 17) and Matt's was Saturday night (Nov. 11).
Friday night was elegant and "spirit-filled," and Saturday night was rustic and "spirit-filled."

Both nights gave grateful glimpses of God's provision and God's grace.

Happy Birthday to the man in my life who is now closer to 60 than to 20. . . . but looks 35 =).  I wouldn't want him any other way.  We love you tons!



 our friends know Matt oh so well!

 a 40th party is not complete without 80's dance music and cheesy decorations!  
they are now up for grabs!
appetizers, beer, pizza, 2 fire-pits and s'mores . . . good times . . .

Good Stuff

November.

Hmm....not sure where September and October went, but then again . . . I know exactly where they went!

Seems that the only way I can keep up with our lives is through pictures on my i-phone.  And I'm okay with that =).

So here's just a few from the last few months.  We'll start with the wedding of the year!  Uncle Jeff married Aunt Lynnette!!  VERY exciting for the Braunius family!  What a weekend that was!  Of course because it was Uncle Jeff, nothing goes as planned . . . including a tornado.  So from outdoors to indoors and a lot of broken glass . . . we will cheers to happily ever after!!



Right before the reveal . . .


So stinking cute they were . . .



Jenny took this picture, so a few members of the bridal party got cut off =)  The 3 girls to Lynnette's left are my 3 new step-nieces.



 

So the ceremony moved inside . . . notice that sky . . . and is Matt crying???


Let the party begin!!


Okay, so this dress was not the most flattering bridesmaid dress ever, but I can't resist a picture of dancing with my dad!






Then we had an awesome fall festival weekend in BML with our very favorite Miss G!






A LOT of mac and cheese (why does it look like it is glowing??) in the car to and from soccer, dance, GEMS, school . . .


A little bit of pumpkin carving . . .


AND just today, a hike up High Mountain after Hurricane Sandy . . .





Who else hikes with Oscar's cheese, summer sausage, a cutting board and knife?!

Good Stuff.
