Crayola Photo Challenge- Red Violet

What I love about this photo is the sheer joy and happiness Gloria, Jena's mom, is displaying. After more stress than anyone should have to endure, and watching her husband narrowly avoid missing the wedding all together, I love how much she was able to let loose and have fun.

Not to mention how stylish she looks doing it!

As is often the case, I find that the youngest people at a wedding are not the ones who are partying it up the hardest. At my grandparent's 50th wedding anniversary celebration many years ago, they were the ones up dancing, along with all their friends, while we just sat around marveling at their endurance and ability to literally dance the night away.

And this is what it was like at Jena's wedding, with Gloria leading the pack. Dancing, singing, laughing, drinking, celebrating and loving her family from the dance floor!

Taken on Friday, October 7th at Jena & Chuck's Wedding at Inn of the Seventh Ray in Topanga Canyon.
