oh wait, there's more! sunday~january 13, 2008

The next day all of Marcus's aunts hosted a day after breakfast. Holly and Marcus's flight to Mexico wasn't until late Sunday night so we got to enjoy the newlyweds before they left. They opened their gifts at our house that afternoon and then we sent them on their way to happy honeymooning. Looking back these were such great times truly celebrating the love they share for one another and together share with their friends and family. It was so sad that Sunday night when everything was over. Renn and Gary came over for dinner and we had one more dinner party sans H & M. I had to leave that night to go back to Tallahassee and it was the worst.

After all of the wedding festivities I wasn't quite sure what I was going to do with myself. It had been one full year of planning and it was over and bittersweet. I thought this year would drag on and on. But it's been almost 10 months to the date and here's a quick recap: I was a bridesmaid in two other weddings, I moved, and our family is expecting a sweet baby girl to arrive this January :) God is good. Lord, thank you for the many blessings this past year and for the marriage of two of your own.
