Cami and Devin, March 25, 1994


Congratulations Cami and Devin on your fifteenth year of marriage. Steve and I are so very proud of Cami and Devin and the beautiful family they are raising. It has not always been an easy road for them and their family but I know that they like the rest of us are learning some very valuable lessons. Our Heavenly Father has truly blessed our family in many ways. It just doesn't seem like it has been fifteen years ago since our darling daughter married her high school sweet heart, they both seemed so young. I still remember the rain storm that we had that day, making it necessary to change our plans from an outdoor reception to an indoor reception at the Stake Center, and not the one we had listed on the invitation either. We were so worried that no one would show up due to the rain and then the change of venues from one Stake building to another pne down the street. I was very pleasantly surprised that we had so many good friends and family "weather the storm" and come out to share in the celebration of Cami and Devin's wedding day. I was so greatful to Gayle Hammonds for her talents and turning the normally boring cultural hall into a beautiful our door setting which included bridges, waterfalls and gazebos, it was a dream come true for Cami and Devin and a huge load off my shoulders. Even the rain could not dampen our spirits on that day.

We love you Cami and Devin and wish you many, many, many more wonderful years of marriage. I hope the next fifteen plus years will hold many more blessings and fewer trials for you and your family. We love you both, forever and always.

  1. Thanks Mom. That was really sweet. We did have a lot of people show up to our Reception, and I was so relieved too. All I could think about having no gifts to open in order to just eat on a plate or drink anything. Seems silly, but those people and their gifts were a huge BLESSING for us. I am also grateful that Gayle was able to make the Cultural Hall not look like a BASKETBALL COURT!! Thank Heavens for her.
