Wedding Bells.

(Uughhhh - I was almost done with this entire post when I managed to accidentally delete it. Shoot. I can't retype it all...it will never be worded the same....grrrr)

Yesterday, I finished unpacking and did all of the laundry, including folding, putting away, and ironing. Who does that? I deserve a pat on the back for that.
As promised, the wedding post :)

It all started last November when I received a phone call from a VERY excited Jodi exclaiming "I'm engaged!!!". I couldn't have been more excited for her. All day I was eagerly anticipating that phone call as I knew it was coming. In January Jodi called me and asked if I'd stand next to her as her Matron of Honor - of course I said yes. I was elated that she asked me to do that - I was excited.

Fast forward, it's August, the night before the big day. Rehearsal was finished and perfected within 30 minutes thanks to Uncle Lee and his excellent ability to tell us what to do, where to go, and when to do it. We were ready. The group then ventured to dinner at Uncle Lee's house on a beautiful, warm, Michigan summer night. There was a taco bar, ice cream bar, and adult beverages. It was a night of socializing and laughing, most enjoyable. Here are a few pictures from the evening.

Moving on, Saturday morning. Jodi's big day was finally here! We started off at the hair salon to get all dolled up...

We then headed on over to the church at which point Jodi looked at the radar...it was ugly. There was an unattractive line of thunderstorms making it's way right for Grand Rapids.

But we were NOT going to let that stop Jodi from enjoying her wedding day!!!!! It was time for Mrs. Burnett to be to get dressed!

The rain moved through, the ceremony was PERFECT, and it was time to party! Needless to say, the wedding party had fun on the party bus...we knew how to celebrate.

After a few stops on the way to the reception to take group pictures....

We arrived at Centennial where we celebrated all night long and had a good time doing it.

Jodi and Buck, we're so happy for you. We're blessed to have friends as wonderful as you. We can't wait for spring break 2012 and sure hope to see you before then! Loves!!
