South Carolina Plantation Wedding

We went to South Carolina for my husband's cousins wedding. It was held at a plantation. It was very pretty. Although it rained buckets almost the entire time.
They had to put up a tent so I couldn't get a good picture of the front of the home. It was built in 1875.

We all wore yellow. All these pictures were taken with my iPhone so the quality isn't that great. Since it was raining so much nobody could look amazing.

The happy couple.

Cake cutting time. They had their own little cake and then served tiny cupcakes to the guests. They had lemon, lime, strawberry, and grapefruit flavors. I had lemon and it was good.

A view from the upstairs porch.

Then it was church on Sunday morning....

And this was  my pink skirt I wore. I got this from Paris Rags.  And I paired it with pink pearls.  This weekend my sister and I are off to Georgia. We are going to spend time with my nephew. I'm so ready for Spring Break. 

I'll take lots of pictures to share with you soon.

Blessings,
Amy Jo

Country Church circa 1880's

When we went to Mt. Dora we passed this little old church building . It was a beautiful little church. Now starting to deteriorate, maybe for good. My Aunt said the town always kept it up, but not since the economy fell.

The sign reads come join us every 3rd Sunday. Sunday School 9:30 AM and
Worship 11:00 Am.

Of course no one has came for worship at this little building in years. It is such a sad little story.... I can almost hear the echos of those old time sermons and maybe a dinner on the ground. Of course it is just a building. "The true church can never fail. For it is based upon a rock." T.S. Eliot.

"Church attendance is as vital to a disciple as a transfusion of healthy blood to a sick man." Dwight L. Moody
