My best friend Lindsay and I survived 24 years of friendship growing up together. We waded through the awkward years then graduated together. We survived separate times in our lives in college and came full circle to become established with jobs and homes together. But I think the biggest feat so far...We survived the first of our 2 weddings in 2 months!
Lindsay and Brandon were married Saturday, June 25th in a bright, summer wedding that was a little bit classy, a little bit country and ALOT of fun!

After the rehearsal dinner, logistics of the ceremony and music figured out and speeches over, (phew!) the girls got together at Meg's house to shower Lindsay with goodies for her honeymoon.
Brandon is a fireman...how appropriate that this maid of honor asked for a fire engine for christmas when she was 3 and still had it in her attic!
The next day, we gathered for Lindsay's bridesmaids luncheon. It was surprisingly a long, and mostly chill day. We enjoyed relaxing before all the craziness we knew would come later.
In the beautiful ceremony, short and sweet how we like them, all was a success. Her dad actually gave her away, we didn't trip down the aisle, I didn't drop the ring or bouquet, and they said "I do"!
Her processional song (the song us bridesmaids walked down to) was "Feels Like Home" by Chantal Kreviazuk, one of my favorites.
The recessional song was "Honey Bee" by Blake Shelton. Upbeat and a TON of fun.
::If you'll be my soft and sweet
I'll be your strong and steady
You be my glass of wine
I'll be your shot of whiskey
You be my sunny day
I'll be your shade tree
You be my honeysuckle
I'll be your honeybee::

There was so much mingling and dancing to be done that I never even got a piece...And I'm still thinking about it!
And now on to the dance floor!
One of my favorites from the night!
Two of a Kind...
Nina on drums and Meg on electric guitar to close out the show...
It took me pretty much the entire week to recover and get back on a normal schedule, THEN the 4th of July hit. But it made me so excited for our wedding coming up and for the 2 others I'll be a bridesmaid in this fall and winter. I'm refusing to post countdowns ("** days left!") because I'm trying to forget how fast it's coming and tell myself that I WILL get everything done! Wish me luck...
