These 2 wonderful people got married last weekend!It was a fun wedding... and those are 2 words I've never used in combination before. Fun. Wedding.
To be honest, I was never a romantic. When I was single I tolerated weddings at best. (In my own words, "I'm NEVER getting married. And if I do, I will be by ELOPEMENT ONLY.")
I hated the preparation. The bridesmaids nervously walking down the aisle. Then, the big moment: when the doors opened and the bride and groom saw each other single for the last time. Why was it such a BIG DEAL?
Something surprised me this weekend, though.
The moment the bride appeared in the doorway, my heart did flip-flops as it all flooded back to me.
My Boy. My best friend. Waiting for me. The other half of me that had been missing for so long.
I love him.He is the light of my life. Every day of my life. And I'm honored to have spent the last 2 years by his side.
I didn't spend much of the weekend by his side because of all the wedding prep, but here's a picture of us at the reception.
In the meantime, I loved getting to know his friends and the people who are so special to him.
Congrats, N & R. May God bless every step you take along this beautiful, rugged path together.
