This past Saturday, Nov. 21st, Josh Wagner and Ruthie Lee were married! It was a very God- Honoring celebration. The sun was shining all day, the sky clear and blue, and the temperature very warm for November.
Dad and I had the honor of being invited to the groom's dinner Friday night, which made the whole celebration so much more personal for us.
We got to meet Ruthie's family before the wedding and had time to talk to Josh and Ruthie more than we could have on the wedding day. It is very obvious that Josh has found his completer, and Ruthie looks up to Josh very much and cherishes his love. I was greatly rejoicing to see how God has answered many prayers.
Mr. Wagner, Maria, and Glen Larson sang "The Law of the Lord is Perfect" together, which was very beautiful. It brought back memories of years ago when Glen and Matt used to sing together, and separately they both told me that those memories flooded over them also. Also, Ruthie's grandfather sang a song that was composed for his own wedding, which he has sung for many years now at the family weddings. MANY people were at the wedding and reception, a cake reception, including Brian and Tabita, Andy Johnson, Sarah Larson, and many from now and old church. Many said "Hi" to you kids and asked about you.
We helped in the reception hall decorating on Friday night, which was fun (with Ruthie's family). The church and reception hall were decorated in autumn theme and the bridesmaids wore a beautiful brown color. Ruthie's uncle put together a wonderful video, which we were thankful to have seen on Friday night when we could see and hear it much better . All in all, it was a very wonderful celebration, and I am very grateful for the blessing of the Lord to bring them together as He did. All of us at home were able to attend, and we all had a wonderful time.
