June 12 Meredith married Eric Boam in the Manhattan LDS temple. They wanted to have a small, family wedding and that is what they got! Eric and his family spent the week before the wedding taking in the sights of New York. We loved getting to know them better and are so grateful to be sharing Meredith with them. We welcome Eric into our family with open arms.
It had rained all morning on Friday, but just as we were ready to go to Central Park for photos, the rain stopped and we were able to be outside without too much hassle. A dinner and a dance at Tavern on the Green finished off the day and we sent the happy couple off on their honeymoon.
Paul and I didn't expect to have the wedding bell blues, but they really set in once all the kids and grand kids had left. We know they need to go and build their own lives, but sometimes it seems kind of crazy that we aren't doing that all in the same place. We count ourselves lucky to have had so much family time in Austin and look forward to making that happen again somewhere, someday.

Congratulations to Meredith! I know how you feel. We dropped Neils off at BYU today. I didn't think it would be so emotional. When we walked away I started crying. Vince told me to put on my big girl boots, it's time for him to leave the nest.
i knew we should have stayed a few extra days to help ease the pain!! i'm sure that would have done the trick! what a great weekend that was. so fun to be with everyone.
