It was a beautiful wedding and a great bunch of family and friends.

Betts-Hills Wedding Part 1

What a wedding we had. It was a wonderful time - even though it was raining it didn't make a bit of difference. It was just beautiful. It was great to have our entire family from "far" and "near" to share this special day with us. We had family from California and Salt Lake City and Washington and New Hampshire and Vermont travel to Maine. It was just great to see them all. Rehearsal dinner was held at Camp Jordon - a beautiful log lodge in Ellsworth. My good friend Cheryl assisted me with the lasagna dinner for 22. It was just a blast! Best party of 22 I had ever "served"! Twila's beautiful dress -

The seating chart as you entered onto

the porch decorated with white lights

and pumpkin lights and plenty of garden mums. These hand painted pumpkins were placed on

each table as their seating numbers.

Table set and ready to go for lasagna, Cesear salad,

spaghetti and meatballs and garlic bread - apple crisp

and ice cream for dessert.

Dave Vachon is officiating - Adam and Dylan looking on

Twila's youngest sister Alana

Gifts were exchanged along with tears and hugs

It was the guys turn now to open their gifts from

Daniel.

Adam - Dylan - Tony - John

showing me their engraved knives.

It was time to get busy and drill some light holes in

the pumpkins to sit outside on the porch.

Jordon and John teamwork

The wrap around porch almost ready

The arrival of some of the family from New Hampshire.

Look at Rex's expression.

Just loving her little sister

Patrick and his mother having a conversation

Jay thinks it's funny whatever it was.

Tony made us a new cribbage board -

Reese was a little upset

She's better now in daddy's arms

Daniel and little Rex

Jay and Derek preparing the clams -

(Cohogs) for stuffing and baking on the grill.

What a process - but very worth it - thanks Jay and Derek and Craig

Time to say good-bye for now Derek said he was going to use Rex's plastic gun

if there were any crazy drivers going home.

Evening of lobster feed

The morning after

We missed all of you that couldn't make it -

But there is always next year -

Love to all -

See you in October :)
