Daytime outfit: story time with Babygirl, Lunch with MIL and GG, and assorted running around.  I have owned this sweater for a while, and it is one of my favorites.  It is just such a lovely soft cashmere, comfortable and warm.  My parents gave it to me for my birthday several years ago, and it gets worn quite frequently in cooler weather.

This was the outfit I wore to attend the wake of the Deacon who performed our marriage ceremony and conducted the ceremony during which Babygirl was baptized, he was also a long time friend of Hubby's family.  I just felt that my outfit from earlier was a bit too casual for the service I was attending.  With a little more forethought and better weather I probably would have chosen different footwear as well...

The wake included a wonderful ceremony with thought and humor that Deacon would have enjoyed.  It even included a mention of the pink (!) sport coat that he wore to our wedding reception...  Needless to say for someone so well liked and  involved in the community, it was very well attended.

If Hubby were here instead of traveling for work (he was very upset not to be able to attend) we would probably attend the funeral mass tomorrow as well.  Given the busyness of this week, I think Babygirl and I will likely not attend. 

Deacon is fondly remembered and sadly missed by many.
