Happy Easter

Easter holiday, is a celebration of the resurrection of Christ! Jesus Christ, The Son of God, bled and died for us in a sacrifice. This Spring day's celebrated, generally in the month of April. All of the bright and pretty colors, of the Easter outfits with frills. Women and children will wear their Easter bonnets. In the Spring, you'll hear the various musical sonnets. April will bring many rain showers. That'll bring us various beautiful flowers. One special flower for this day is the Easter Lily. It's color is white, and yet snowy & milky. The birds will sing their songs of praise. As we begin to feel the warmth of the sun's rays. As we say "Goodbye" to the winter's gloom, the flowers and trees have already begun to bloom. All of life's beauty, the Lord created, for us all to share. Spring breezes begin to flow, sending fragrances through the air. The winter's thawing will let the rivers, lakes, and streams rise and flow. The beauty of the Earth will make us all feel aglow! Farmers and gardeners will start to hoe. And then they'll begin to sow. On Sundays, we'll hear the various church bells ring. Let's be grateful for the LORD, let's rejoice and sing. If it wasn't for the Lord, we wouldn't have anything!

You are some bunny special!


We're not hunting wabbits, we're hunting Easter eggs!

You look egg-stra special!!

Honeymoon Snapshots











Market Pavilion Hotel: The Life of Luxury

The View from our Hotel


We spent two nights at the Market Pavilion Hotel in Charleston, South Carolina. Our hotel was absolutely luxurious and private. It was located right in the heart of downtown Charleston within walking distance to the Battery. We shopped, ate at fine restaurants, took a private, historical carriage tour, had drinks at the rooftop bar, and most importantly, enjoyed spending time with each other. It was a fabulous start to many honeymoons that we will be taking ... the next trip will be in May 2007 to Playa Del Carmen, Mexico.

The INFAMOUS Lap Dance


For those of you who know Mark, he's always been known as the white guy who has rhythm. He can shake his butt like no one else that I have ever seen ... WELL, his wife and my mom decided that they would make me turn 100 shades of red by Mark giving me a lap dance. The funniest thing was that my husband thought it was hysterical!

Reception Snapshots


Friends are kisses blown to us by angels
During special times in your life, you truly realize and become more appreciative of what joy your friends bring to your life. There are some friends that come and go, but there are also those friends who make footprints upon your heart. The four guys that I'm pictured with in this comical snapshot are (left to right) Mark Vaughan, Josh Rivers, Cory Hedrick, and Mike Kimbrell. Why of course, Josh and I have been together our whole life considering we are siblings, but the other three I consider to be just as close as my brother. They've all been there through the good, the bad, and the UGLY! I love each of them more than I'll ever be able to express, and they deserve all the happiness life has to offer.

First KISS and Recessional

Exchange of Rings


Talon was such a sweetheart during all of the wedding festivities. He took great pride in being the best man. Jay kept emphasizing to him how important his role in the wedding was. Talon's biggest concern was my ring ... he wanted to keep it until time to give it to Jay to put on my finger. With a little hesitation, I agreed to let Talon take possession of my ring until the ceremony. As pictured to the left, Talon is giving his Daddy the ring during our wedding ceremony.

Exchange of Vows


There is nothing nobler or more admirable than when two people who see eye to eye keep house as man and wife, confounding their enemies and delighting their friends.

Josh Seating Our Mom




After the rehearsal dinner, some of the wedding party decided to relax by renting a lane and bowling. This wasn't just any bowling league ... it was the league of champions. BUT, I guess after a few shots of tequila most people feel like they can conquer the world. (AT LEAST THAT IS HOW CORY FEELS) :)
