We picked up Bethany and Rachel at the airport and rushed to a wedding reception about an hours drive away. We stopped at a gas station on the way and the girls changed out of their travel clothes and into their wedding garments. Rosendo and Sugelys' wedding had a Mexican flavor, as Rosendo is from Mexico. In Mexico, the groom marches down the aisle first and stands with his back to the congregation and does not look at the bride until she stands by his side at the altar. The reception was great. They even had a Mariachi group with big sombreros sing love songs!
The 2 hour drive home afterwards was filled with stories from our daughters' six months in Pensacola Christian College in the state of Florida. It was great to see our assistant pastor happily married, and wonderful to have our daughters home for Christmas. Tomorrow we hope to sleep in, bake Christmas cookies and enjoy their company !
