Wedding Slide Show!

Jennifer told me that they would love to have a slide show playing during their reception.  I love doing that kind of things so I was all over it.

I went through ALL of my pictures of Jennifer growing up. . . it was a nostalgic trip for me. . . kind of bittersweet.

 

When they are little you think they will never grow up.  Your patience is tried and you learn so very much.  But then, before you know it, they ARE grown up and heading out on their own for their own adventures and learning experiences.

It makes you wonder if you taught them all they need to know and if you did enough.  I wish I had cherished the moments more than I did.  They went by in a flash!

Samuel’s mom sent me a big batch of photos to chose from, Jennifer and Samuel gave me ideas of what songs they would like in the background and I set to work.

Should I be surprised that things did not go as planned?  I expect glitches here and there, but my computer kept CRASHING and it not working wasn’t something I expected.

My computer was less than a year old and making a slideshow was not agreeable to it.  Fortunately Samuel was able to salvage the pictures and music (not the special effects) so they were able to have a slide show. . .

As for me, I was able to send my computer away and get the motherboard repaired.  I am grateful for Costco’s awesome warranty so it only cost me time and aggravation but no money.

Tears were shed as I put it together (by me and not due to computer problems) but I am ever so grateful to have some many precious memories that will stay with me.
