We then called Amy, and she had a spot for us in July, at 9am! That was actually our first choice time, and since I'd spent a summer at ND I knew how beautiful July mornings could be. We had a brunch reception at the Morris Inn, and Danielle Rose's "Holy Family" was our first dance song. :) Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04009505056420681903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6868105120934453133.post-14541633400244510552013-03-05T08:39:35.933-05:002013-03-05T08:39:35.933-05:00She got her first choice date in July!

The summer before my senior year in HS I attended ND Vision; Danielle Rose was a music minister who I adored while there, and I still have & listen to her CD! A few weeks ago John and I were at Mass at a parish we don't usually attend and while flipping through the hymnal and I saw the song 'Be God's' in it, which is my favorite of hers! I was excitedly whispering to John about the fact it was in the church book and how much I loved the song, and as soon as I finished telling him it was announced as the Communion hymn--it made me so happy!

He lived in Flanner (until, "They killed it" (ie made it an office building) and never attended mass there.
