Today my sister married and I gained a new brother.
My parents with my sister, Danae and and her groom, Kilian
Danae and Kilian with all Danae's siblings
It was a little startling to realize that my sister, who was born when I was fifteen, is old enough to be married! As a teen, I had given up on ever having a sister, since I only had brothers. But, as you see in the photo, God not only gave me Danae, but also two more sisters.
The bride and groom with Danae's nieces and nephews
Getting photos of eleven children was a challenge but they cooperated well. And yes, the girls are outnumbered 3 to 8!

Best wishes Danae and Killian for many happy years serving the Lord together!
What a beautiful family and on such a happy occasion. Wishing the bride and groom many blessings in the years to come.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the happy couple! I didn't realize you came from such a large family. How wonderful!
ReplyDeleteWow! I have lost track of your younger siblings...I can only name the first 4 or so...and I can hardly believe Danae is old enough to get married either! :-) Are we getting older by any chance?!?!?

So beautiful! I love the colors and getting to see you with your family.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to you all!!! Many happy years to the newlyweds.
ReplyDeleteWhat is that color of blue called? I want a dress that color!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd, yes, we are getting older. The little people that were in my wedding are all old enough to be married.
Time waits for no one, neither does old age!
Aw! So sweet!
ReplyDeleteAnd I admit I liked the grey long dresses - so simple yet pretty. Thanks for sharing the happy occasion.
What a beautiful wedding!
