MELISSA & JOSHUA

In May Melissa said, "Yes!" to this young man.
Last weekend Joshua Mahoney became our son-in-law.

Grandpa Jim and Granny Kitty

 and Grandpa David travelled a great distance to

celebrate with us.

Melissa & Josh asked Jim to perform the ceremony.

Here they are practicing the evening before the

Main Event.

 Our almost-two-year-old grandaughter, Tyler, 

was one of Melissa's flower girls.

 Asher Barnes - the very handsome ringbearer!

 In the kitchen at Deep Creek - Daughter-in-law Amanda

along with Alyssa and Stacy created an amazing meal

for the wedding reception.

 Melissa and Josh were married right beside Deep Creek ~

 "Together" ~ an original song Dad wrote and sang

just for Melissa and Josh 

" Love never gives up.
Love cares more for others than for self.
Love doesn't want what it doesn't have.
Love doesn't strut,
Doesn't have a swelled head,
Doesn't force itself on others,
Isn't always "me first,"
Doesn't fly off the handle,
Doesn't keep score of the sins of others...
  

 ...Doesn't revel when others grovel,
Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth,
Puts up with anything,
Trusts God always,
Always looks for the best,
Never looks back,
But keeps going to the end."

I Corinthians 13:4-7   The Message

Now, joyfully ~ Melissa Mahoney
