A time to weep and a time to laugh; 
A time to mourn and a time to dance.
~ Eccles. 3:4



 
Trey Making his Public Debut


You have turned for me my mourning into dancing
You have loosed my sackcloth and 
girded me with gladness... 
~ Psalm 30:11

 
 

Let them praise His name with dancing
Let them sing praises to Him with timbrel and lyre.
~ Psalm 149:3



Let them praise His name with dancing
Let them sing praises to Him with timbrel and lyre.
~ Psalm 150:4





Then the virgin will rejoice in the dance
And the young men and the old, together, 
For I will turn their mourning into joy 
And will comfort them and give them 
joy for their sorrow.
~ Jeremiah 31:13





They send forth their little ones like the flock, 
And their children skip about.
~ Job 21:11



Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the earth. 
Serve the LORD with gladness; 
Come before Him with joyful singing. 
Know that the LORD Himself is God; 
It is He who has made us, 
and not we ourselves; 
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
Enter His gates with thanksgiving 
And His courts with praise 
Give thanks to Him, bless His name. 
For the LORD is good; 
His lovingkindness is everlasting 
And His faithfulness to all generations.
~ Psalm 100:1-5

Wedding Day Customs

Wedding Rehearsal '97
Practicing our Pledges/Vows

Customs & Traditions of Weddings
change thru the decades...
Yet, an Unforeseen Surprise 
was about to transcend, 
Anna's Dream Wedding Day


Crossed a New Threshold Last Year
We have been Married Longer...
...Than we have been Single




PHILIP's Vow
 I pledge to you
Anna Christian Overly
My Life My Love Forever
To Lead You, encourage,
inspire, provide, protect, strengthen you
Remain faithful to you In Christ Jesus
In times of trials and struggles,
 in times of joy & happiness
I promise to give you my love for the rest of my life,
as a place you can always come to for acceptance
or the simple comfort that silence brings
My prayer is to grow old with you
To watch our dreams, one by one come true
as God directs
I Philip Campbell pledge to you my life and love forever



ANNA's Pledge
I Anna Overly Pledge to you my life and love
To Encourage Help and Inspire you
To Protect and Strengthen
To Remain Faithful to you In Christ Jesus
In times of struggles and trials
And in times of joy and happiness
I pledge to give you my love for the rest of our lives,
As a place you can always come to for acceptance
Or the simple comfort that silence brings
My prayer is to grow old with you
To watch our life unfold and our dreams
one by one come true – As God directs us
I pledge to you Philip James Campbell
my life and my love forever

Surprise - that moment when Anna realized 
she was about to be serenaded #priceless...




Phil Had written a song "Your My Only Dream"
based on the '96 film That Thing You Do
a rewrite of "All My Only Dreams"
acoustic accompaniment John Henderson
Anna was totally unaware that John & I were scheming,
along with my eldest brother Chris (who officiated the wedding)



Official Pronouncement
but Not so Official Wedding Papers...
the Real Bonus Footage was two or three months later
when Anna was applying for her Virginia Drivers License
under her new last name "Campbell"
that is when we found out my brother submitted the marriage licence 
but He forgot to sign it.
So technically we were legally married 
somewhere in the Early Winter of 1997 :)
