My boy donned a tuxedo.
And, Anna….well…..
Let’s just say Kris didn’t win the fashion wars. I was sure of it when I returned home to see her wearing this.
A lovely tank top in the heart of winter.
I sure did miss that girl. Kris decided to document their chain of events by sending me regular text messages. Here was the first incoming message:
“I am about to fall over with laughter listening to Anna talk her shew-wee out.”
Um, how do you spell “shew-wee” anyway?
He took her to Redrock Canyon Grill for their first date night, a local favorite for watching sunset while you dine. Kris messaged, “She has quite the appetite….and the cow bell just went off for sunset, and she wants to go ring it now.” He continued, “I think I have {the cow bell ringing} under control now.”
When he sent this one:
“I miss you guys, but we are having a blast. This is precious for Anna and me.”
I knew sweet memories were being made.
In the meantime, John Henry and I had our own fun celebrating the wedding of a very close family friend – my God sister, Sandyn who married Captain Elic Colwell who is the brother of Lindsey Takle who is the wife of Dr. Leiv Takle, Jr. who is the brother of Kris Takle who is the husband of me. Yes, six degrees….
And some pics just for funsies.
(An itty bitty part of the wedding party, and John Henry doing his best imitation of my dad.)

(My dad and son. Two of my favorite men.)
The groom, Elic, the bride, Sandyn…her sister, Brittany, Andy & Carson Thoms)
I could’ve taken that little guy home with me. For real.
Oh, and me with my completely beautiful mama.
That’s it. We’re all tired. And I’m happy to be back with my husband and fashion trailblazer.
