Just thought I'd note Sarah's correct form.... what a talented little sister I have. I think the one-eye-closed-stance gives this novice away.

Thanks to Monroe for the lesson. Now Sarah has a false security in her ability to shoot a hand gun accurately.

World, watch out.

Thankful for time with Monroe and Katie... and since I NEVER hardly EVER have pictures taken with Monroe, here it is. My attempt at ONE picture! :) Thankful to visit Park Cities with Monroe and Katie, and also to celebrate Benton's birthday last night. Chris and Kelly Collins came over for dinner and it was GREAT to see them!

What a great weekend full of memories...

Love him... so very thankful for Monroe!

WEDDING DAY!!! So thankful for God's provision in both Rach and Will's lives. It's so neat to be in Ft. Worth to walk through this day with Rach. We've shared so many memories over the years as she has spent quite a bit of time living with us in Clemson. We've gone through some pretty tough heartbreak together, and it is just so NEAT to see how God has provided WILL for Rach (and vice versa), and to see how faithful God has been to Rach through all of the ups and downs.

I feel so blessed to be standing by Rachel today. So thankful for her and honored to share in her day.

I'd say that it was a BEAUTIFUL day for a wedding!!!

Rach's friend Haley Mitchell did her hair for the wedding and did a BEAUTIFUL job!

Everybody getting ready! Thankful for that Katrina girl!

Woot woot! Brush those pearly whites, Sarah Lou!

Will sent Rach a letter and a plant. This is Rach's favorite flower- so sweet!

Beautiful hydrangeas!

Lisa and Sarah- friends of Rach's from Ohio. It was SO GREAT to see them again after so many years.
Sarah and I met them a LONG time ago when we went to visit Rach.
Love them!

Almost time to get in THE DRESS!

I loved this picture. The flower girl was twirling around-- and Rach was just watching.
So relaxed and so excited!! AND LOOK AT HER HAIR! Beautiful!

Carrie helping the flower girl get dressed. Carrie
was SO helpful and finished a lot of last minute details. She saves the day always!

Beautiful! How many people does it take to fasten a wedding dress?!!

Love love!!! Thankful for these two ladies!

Rach had a candy table and it was SO cute!!!!

Beautiful cake! (though I forgot to eat a piece... too busy dancing!)

Matt, Rach, Kathryn and Benton were all able to make it for the wedding!!!

:)

Aunt Carol is so beautiful! Here we all are trying to pass the last few minutes!!!

Thankful for this day... more pictures to come.... :)
