~a beautiful wedding for one of my favorite people
~barbeque reception outside at a wonderful home
~the wedding cake turning out perfectly (thank you, Lord!)
~The Rainmakers (father-of-the-bride’s band) playin’ country music and good ole’ rock ‘n’ roll
~abandoning shyness and pride and being crazy on the dance floor
~being comfortable enough to mock-fight for the bouquet, telling the
sixteen-year-olds to get out of the way of the
nearly-thirty’s
~dancing in the rain with my best friends
~the bride dancing in the rain with all her childhood girlfriends (and being one of them)
~deciding that I must be a “country girl” at heart
~feeling young, and feeling that youth rightfully goes with my age
~racing the limo down the lane as it took our friends off to their new life
~good friends, good food, dancing, laughing
~a perfect day and we got ‘er married off
~coming home to my beautiful family
~seeing my sister’s new mice, which she got for her birthday (they are kind of cute)
~kissing my baby sister while she’s still damp from her bath
~watching great movies like The Princess Bride and Terminator with my Daddy
~being able to sigh with tired happiness and thank God for all the love and laughter in my life

Too many weddings!
oi. that was the best wedding reception i’ve ever been to, and i was only there for the last two hours! i wish i could’ve been at the actual wedding. la. it was fun dancing. on the dance floor, and out in the rain.
Sounds beautiful and happy. . .
Awww… sounds wonderful!
it was fantastic, wasn’t it? and we should dance like that more often because it’s good for the soul. someday, someday, we’ll have that experience with our Lord. no words to express that kind of joy.
Well lucky you. I haven’t run the numbers, but I think I’ve now lost more friends to weddings than to death. Sigh.
Hmmm….country girl, eh? You gonna deal with the snakes and bugs that come crawling through your living room?
