Memorial Day on the Tennessee River / Kentucky Lake

On Memorial Day, Jack & Middy, George and I ventured out in Jack & Middy's ski boat.  

That's not the boat but Geo is standing on the dock.

See the red dot?

It looks just like him, doesn't it?

Jack & George  
Can you tell they're brothers?

Middy & I

Don't ask me why but this sign made me want to sing 

Creedence Clearwater Revival's Up On Cripple Creek song.

Or was it The Band?

It doesn't matter who sang it because I was singing Creedence's version.  I sounded EXACTLY like them too, instruments and all!  

A perfect weather day for cruising.

It's not summer without a feet pic!

Isn't she lovely?

Cheers!

Woo-hoo!

Oh, how I LOVE Tennessee!

After Amit & Nicole's wedding and related events, boat day was a great way to cap off a wonderful weekend!

Amit & Nicole's Wedding

The wedding venue was Nashville's 
Schermerhorn Symphony Center.
***

Cool!

The camera SOMEHOW put itself on the wrong setting which resulted in blurry pictures of the wedding!  The only viable pic (and that's debatable) of the actual wedding is the one from my iPhone below.  

As you can see, it's mostly a picture of the back of heads.  Lovely heads I might add but they are heads!  

If you squint real hard and tilt YOUR HEAD to the left (or stand on it), you just might be able see Amit and Nicole way, way, way off in the distance.

Now isn't it a spectacular pic?

Don't they look gorgeous?

Of course, they do!

See any hair you recognize?

We actually have other pictures!

YAY!
Some before the wedding.
Jim & Adam

Sheri & Josh

This one of Mallory cracks me up!

She looks very pretty in her flower girl dress 

and I love the expression!

Ring bearer Jackson!

What a doll!

The Dances

**

There was lots of dancing.  

I didn't have many decent still photos to choose 

from, and the ones I had were pretty similar.

Another performance of Bollywood.

(One was done at the Rehearsal dinner.)  

Middy and I ended up in there this time.  

We were definitely winging it but it was fun!

Watching Mallory & Jackson dance is a joy!

Too cute!

Family photo!

Delightful!

George and I are excited and happy for Amit & Nicole.
May their future be as beautiful as their wedding!
The entire weekend was a grand ole time 
in Nashville and we loved every minute of it!

Still Smilin'

Amit & Nicole's Rehearsal Dinner

Amit & Nicole's Rehearsal Dinner was held at

The Listening Room Cafe.

It's a very cool spot!
 I would love to check it out 
sometime when it's open to the public.

The Bride & Groom,

Nicole & Amit

The event was hosted by 
Maid of Honor, Mandy, 
and Best Man, Ankur.  
I hope I spelled his name correctly.

That's Mallory on stage with her mama.

Love it!

Josh & Sheri by the light of the iPhone or was it a candle?
It could have been the silvery moon for all I know!
I can't remember but I really like the pic.

Flower girl Mallory looking quite pretty.  

Handsome ring bearer Jackson in his dapper bow tie.

For some reason, when I look at this picture I hear, 

"It's up to you New York, New York!"  

No, that song was not playing. 

Yes, I am hearing things!  

The rehearsal dinner was touching, 

funny and quite entertaining!

Afterwards, many guests danced the night away at Barlines in the  Omni Hotel.  I don't know the name of the band but they were excellent!

Lots of blur here but you get the idea.

Up next, the very lovely wedding!

Smiles,

D~~~~
