weddings & engagement

this weekend my friend anna got married. it was a nice wedding, simple, southern, and classic just like anna. her groom, mike was very cute and very nervous. during the vows, he jumped the gun and said "i will" before the pastor was done. better eager than delayed! it was sweet. the wedding was at the chapel on furman's campus. it was really beautiful.

last night we went out to celebrate our friends chris and leah getting engaged. they were very excited and of course had to keep repeating the story of how chris proposed.

i like weddings and engagements. when you are engaged everyone is so happy for you, everyone knows you're in love, and wants to be helpful and encouraging. then you get married and the fuss around you fizzles fast. scott and i were talking about our marriage and how wonderful it is. engagement is the fun part but marriage is the life part. not that marriage isn't fun but there is something fantastically wonderful about being married. i love when scott comes home from work and we cook dinner together. i like that tonight we have a laundry date. i love that every morning i wake up next to him. i love being married. i love that i know that scott and i will be together. it really is fantastic. i am so glad to share my life with him. i quess what i am saying is that i really enjoy the normalcy of marriage. it feels so right.
