My sissy got married!!!

This past weekend I got to attend/be in a wedding! My sister from another mister got married! Angela and I have known each other for as long as we can remember. We start way back as just buddies at church but then developed a sister like relationship many years ago. So hard to believe Angela and DJ's big day has come and gone. I was honored to be able to fly in for it but man was it a quick trip. I left last Thursday morning at 5am and got home at 9pm Sunday night. It was really nice to see family and church family! I surprised my mom in-law and I got to meet my sis in-laws new love in her life, Ronnie! He was a sweetheart and I know he makes her so happy which makes me happy!

Now onto Thursday night, it wasn't such a good night. A couple weeks ago Jeremy and I tried out Mongolian food at Genghis Grill and fell in love! And it was enough food for Jeremy! Anywho, so we went back for dinner last Wednesday (day before I left for WV) and something I ate didn't agree with me. I never really noticed anything stomach wise until I got off the plane, that's when my stomach started churning. It sounded like someone was doing a chemistry project in my tummy. I never really felt bad during the day just didn't have an apatite. I thought it was just nerves and excitement. So after my mom and I got done visiting with family that evening I got to my parents house and actually sat down and that's when the sick feeling began. (TIME OUT)

I made these cute sashes for Angela (the bride), Kerri and I to wear out Friday or during the getting ready process Saturday!



(TIME IN) I have NEVER felt this bad before and I didn't like it. By the end of the night all the food from the night before had come up and I had instant relief :(. I know, nasty. Must have been a touch of food poisoning.

I started my Friday that weekend very early, not feeling to great yet but I knew I had lots of things to do and people to see. I surprised the office I used to work in at Bluefield State!!!! I was sooooo excited to see these peps, I have missed them so so much. I surprised them with breakfast and we chatted for a good 2 hours while I waited on my ride to go decorate for the fun reception I attended Saturday night! Friday evening was rehearsal and rehearsal dinner then it ended with a fun girls night with the bride to be and Kerri the maid of honor! Below are some pictures from our fun night!



 We had to do stick on nails because we ran out of time to get manis and pedis.



Saturday!!! Angela and DJ's big day!!! Hair at 7, makeup at 10, pictures at 12 and wedding at 2! Beautiful wedding ceremony! Angela and DJ decided to do the hands ceremony that Jeremy and I did! It's a very touching ceremony and brought back memories of my wedding day! Following the wedding was a spectacular reception! The food was amazing, decor was beautiful and getting to let loose and dance without a care in the world...priceless! I danced with my mommy and daddy both, fun memories! It was a rainy Saturday but it has been said that rain on your wedding day is good luck! Angela and DJ headed out of town around 6 or 6:30! Puerto Rico was their honeymoon destination, they spent and week in the sun having fun, just what they wanted and needed! It's so hard to believe that my sissy is married. I'm still not used to seeing Angela Belcher on my facebook but i'll get used to it! Oh and DJ is in the Army. Never in my wildest dreams did I see Angela and I as military spouses but I love having her by my side. We can now share this crazy life together! We're battle buddies! It would be amazing to be stationed with them on day!!!

Here's some pictures from the reception!

Saturday night I got to spend some much needed time with my family! My brother and his girlfriend, Carol came in for the night! It was so nice to just sit in the den by the people I love and have missed so much I just wish Jeremy would have been there with us.

Sunday I woke up to some yummy smells from the kitchen, breakfast! Nothing like mom and dads home cooked meals!!!

Although I enjoyed my quick trip and made lots of memories in 3 short days! I sure did miss that hubby of mine and our beautiful fur babies! Congrats Angela and DJ! I love you both and look forward to years to come full of memories!!!!
