Chelsea married her long time love this weekend....she and Whitney got married at St. Andrew's State Park in Panama City Beach, Florida. It was a day that we thought might be rainy but was blessed with good weather instead.  This post is mostly pics of the event....

Wedding day....we all woke to find that the younger crowd had stayed up
 late to write this in seaweed.  Chelsea was blown away!!

He didn't like " wearing a flower" so Whitney
told him he was wearing one too!

I made the ring pillow....

I went up to check on Chels right before things were beginning.  She
said, "go back down...I just want to start and get married!" 

Who gives this woman?...
