Patrick-Perry Wedding Report - September 24, 2011

The wedding was held at  First Lutheran Church in Havre, Montana.  It was a gorgeous day…perfect for a wedding.

Their wedding was just beautiful…Sadie was a gorgeous bride…in this cream colored sheath gown with a bustle like at the back that streamed down into her train…not very many people have the figure to wear that type of gown…but she looked beautiful.

The maid of honor and bride’s maids wore short dark purple gowns..very attractive.  The groom, best man and ushers were decked out in black tuxedos….as were the dads of the bride and groom.  Linda, Mother of the bride wore a beige almost pearlescent layered sheath.

As the guests left the church and greeted the bride, groom and parents, a bagpiper played…then lead the procession over the to the reception which was held in the St. Jude’s Parish Hall.  It was decorated in soft lights, oriental lanterns…Chinese food was served at the evening dinner.  Each place setting included chopsticks and a small which Chinese takeout box with two of the most darling frosted fortune cookies.

The cake was simple but elegant…carrying through the color theme of purples…greens..white.  Each layer was a different type of cake.  My place in line was served chocolate with raspberry filling…and was delicious.  Some people at my table were served the layer of white cake with pineapple filling.

Lots of fun toasts and roasts by both sides of the family…dancing followed into the late night.  It was fun to spend time with family and friends….visiting…seeing how much all the little kids have grown.

Sadie Patrick and Dustin Perry to Marry in Havre, Montana on September 24, 2011


Here is the wedding invitation to the Patrick-Perry wedding this coming weekend.  I am excited about attending the event.  Will report more later.

Hannah Patrick Makes the Varsity CMR Volleyball Team

Hannah Patrick made the CMR Varity Volleyball Team.  She is the daughter of Brian and Patty Patrick. The Patricks moved to Great Falls this summer after Brian retired from the Townsend School District as the Superintendent of Schools.  He accepted a job with the Great Falls Public School System after his retirement.

Hannah played in Billings this weekend where the CMR Little Rustlers were swept by Billings West.  Hannah was in the team stats when the Lady Rustlers Blocked 4 hits...three of the blocks were delivered by Hannah.

This Editor is going online right now for a schedule.  I would love to see her play volleyball.

Keith Patrick Is Moving to Redding, California

I spoke with Keith yesterday at WalMart.  He told me that he has accepted a transfer with WalMart to Redding, California.  He said since Aunt Beth and Lee have moved to an assisted living center in Billings he really has no reason to live here...plus take that away...he doesn't like the cold.  Can't blame him.

He will be living close to Vernon and Crystal in Chico, California.

I will miss him a lot.  I go to WalMart almost daily...and always looked forward to our visiting there.  He said that he has seen and visited with more of his relatives during the last few years working at WalMart in Havre than ever before in his adult life.

I know that I never really knew him in his adult years until he moved to Havre.  I hope he enjoys California.  I will miss him.  Love ya, Keith.
