"The Final Frontier"

     This is the weekend that three years ago I married Barry.  Our marriage is not only about us, but about blending a family.  No, it hasn't always been easy, yet we make this beautiful family work in which we sometimes as parents are amazed at how blessed we have become.  Our wedding was beautiful, fun and sacred. 
     My dress was gorgeous and when I twirled I felt just like a princess.  We dreamed of having a wedding that was themed with our favorite movie and television show.  What theme did we pick?  Star Trek duh!  The movies were a favorite of both myself and Barry when we were kids and the idea of a shout out was perfect.  Barry, my mom and the boys had Star Trek symbol on their outfits.  I had a Star Trek symbol and we could walk down the aisle without music.  Of course, the theme song to "Star Trek: Generation" became the order of day.  The sacred consisted of spiritual music, the unity candle and my favorite from Barry, myself and the children all pouring sand into a glass vase symbolizing the blending not only of two people but of a family.  We are not worry free, yet our struggles open the door of overwhelming blessing.  God opens doors and my family's arms are wide open to receive the love that is coming through each day.  Love is all we need.
