I had a WONDERFUL weekend! Tim and I traveled to Williamsburg for my friend Anne Marie's Wedding. This was a fantastic event for several reasons. Firstly, I am SOOO happy for Anne Marie! She came into our lives as a random roommate for my friends Brittany and Natalie, but became a true friend so quickly, and eventually I got to live with her for a year also. She is so fun and silly and wonderful to talk to.
AM always had boys interested in her and would frequently go on dates, but there was never really anyone that she was interested in, so I never knew her with a boyfriend. Last summer, her best friend was getting a pedicure and started chatting to the complete stranger sitting next to her. By the end of the pedicure, she had given the stranger Anne Marie's phone number to give to her brother-in-law! AM begrudgingly agreed to go on the blind date, AND NOW THEY ARE MARRIED!!! I'll be honest, I felt a little weird about AM getting married... it seemed fast, and I had not gotten to meet this guy and make sure he was good enough for her. ;) But as AM came through the church doors, looking STUNNING, the prettiest part about her was her gigantic smile! Speaking with her friends who have gotten to know Jeff and see them together, it sounds like he is the absolute perfect match for her and I cannot wait to get to know Jeff better, starting at the next wedding we are both attending in September!
The other reason the weekend was so wonderful, is that I got to see all of my girls from college, all at once, for the first time in 22 months! I hadn't seen Brittany at all in 9 months so it was especially great to see her. It was also fun because we are all (practically) married now, with Sami and Miller being that September wedding I just mentioned! It just really did my heart good to get to spend time with everyone, I feel recharged. There is talk of us planning fake weddings in the future, because they are the perfect excuse that actually gets us all together!
Feeling sentimental this morning, so I've gone back to pull some other group pictures of us girls, college was amazing! :) I am so happy for all of us and where we are in our individual lives now, and so thankful that we are still in each others lives!
Two weekends ago we went to Sami and Miller's Engagement party. Natalie, Sarah and I had the chance to pose with our kids, ages 3.2, 2.2, 1.25, .25 and -.2! Natalie is due with a daughter in early October! Can't wait to see who is next and where we all go from here!
