Weddings, Rally Sundays, Oh My!

My weekend started off yesterday morning getting the finishing touches for a wedding gift and for my family to finish getting their outfits.

Note: I got my dress last weekend, at Khol's and it's ah-mah-zing!!! Don't you think?

Anyways, we were working of getting the final touches, and whatnot. Then we actually got to go to the wedding! I was doing a reading that was very dear to my grandparents, so I was kind of nervous that I was going to mess it up.

Right before the wedding started, I fell (yes I was wearing 3" heels outside), laughed, and then noticed that my stockings were grass stained. I knew that it would not be good to wear grass stained stockings, so I changed out of the stockings, and just stayed that way.

When the wedding started, it was absolutely beautiful. Memere was gorgeous and all of the men were very handsome in their jackets and everything. The ceremony was amazing, the weather held and having it outside made it even better. There were a couple readings, done by myself, and memere's sisters. The minister, had a relationship with memere, and she added her own personal touch. It was really nice. All, in all, the wedding was amazing.

Today was Rally Sunday at church!! Last year, we did the Rally Sunday outside of the church, and then afterwards, everyone went to Cook's Orchard. We joked that we should have church here next year for the Rally Sunday. Well, this year we did it at Cook's Orchard! It was amazing :) We had the bell choir play, Ian play the guitar, and a surprise visit from a bluegrass band that played at Cook's last night.

What made it even better, not only was Cindy there, but Pam (and her cute little 7 month old Gracie) came also :) I haven't seen Pam in a while, so it was amazing to spend time with her! I also loved seeing little Nat, who ran for me for a hug :)

The church service was amazing. It felt normal to be outside, spreading God's word. It was just absolutely amazing! We also had a lot more people to come to church, which was a huge plus :)

Now, Mum and I are back from Cook's, she picked some tomatoes, and is making some home-made tomato sauce, and the bread is being made in the bread machine :) I know dinner tonight will be very yummy :)
