We Love A Party

We Love a Party
Photo-A-Day #1604

Tonight my cousin Josh married his love Megan. They threw a great party filled with moments of touching sentiment as well as pure excitement and fun. You could see in the eyes of Josh and Megan that they are so in love.

It was great and almost everyone from the family was there too. Because each of my Dad’s seven sisters were there we got a family photo with Dad, his sisters and my grandparents.

And I realized that we didn’t have a photo of all three Andrew Bennetts and their wives so we got a photo of the three “Mr. & Mrs. Andrew Bennett(s)”

And also I like to make sure that we get a photo of the three Andrews together as well.

The ceremony was a very nice one. You could tell that Josh and Megan were having a good time all night long. They both had wonderful genuine smiles all evening. they were having fun and enjoying their night.

My cousin Matt, Josh’s oldest brother was the best man and he gave a fitting and moving Best Man speech that put tears in many eyes. There was a heavy cowboy theme going on during the night as well, with the cowboy hats for the groomsmen and the references to Johnny Cash, we were ready to kick up the night. And knowing this family, well the title of this post says it all, “We Love A Party.

I posted my photos from the other night. I don’t have captions or descriptions yet but feel free to visit and comment. Josh and Megan’s Wedding Gallery.

While I am not a community blogger per se, I do like to spotlight events that are happening in North Attleboro, especially those that we have close personal ties to. The event that is happening next is the Bow Wow Meow Luau which is a great event to raise money for the North Attleboro Animal Shelter. Our little guys Duncan and Oliver (if you are new here you probably have not heard a word about them in since Eva was born, sorry. Should have blogged about how they peed in a box of books and stained our floor, that was fun to clean up last night. But we still love them.) came from the shelter. My sister Tara is on the board of The Friends of the North Attleboro Animal Shelter and I’m their blog/web guy. So it is only fitting that I plug this event here on this blog. It is also an open call to local North Attleboro and surrounding area bloggers to meet up with me that night. Tickets for the event are only $20 and the money goes to a great cause. My sister Tara provided me with this press release and the photos. I’ve taken my own sets of North Attleboro Animal Shelter photos in the past and should get over there and do some more.

The Friends of the North Attleboro Animal Shelter would like you to join them at the first annual FNAAS Bow Wow Meow Luau on Saturday August 22nd from 5-9pm at the North Attleboro Elks Pavilion on Bulfinch Street. The evening will feature luau fare and a barbecue dinner, DJ and dancing, a 50/50 raffle, horseshoe tournament, traditional raffle and cash bar. Raffle items include New England Patriots tickets, a 2-night luxury hotel stay, a LG-Neon phone and many items and gift certificates generously donated by local businesses. This is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate with friends and family while supporting the efforts of the North Attleboro Animal Shelter.

Tickets can be purchased in advance for just $20 at the Preservation Framer (My Cousin Matt’s Business) in downtown North Attleboro, Duggan Law Office at 17 Jay Street or the North Attleboro Animal Shelter. You may also purchase tickets for $25 at the door on the day of the event. For more information about the event, becoming a member of the Friends of the North Attleboro Animal Shelter or to make a donation, please visit our website at www.fnaas.org or contact Tara Bennett at info @ fnaas.org
