This past week I have been tirelessly working on my scheduled yard sale that is scheduled for Saturday. I'm looking very forward to it for some crazy reason. I've also been working on a few Craigslist and eBay items. That's been very interesting.
In addition to all of that, I got the pleasure of driving to Myrtle Beach, SC this weekend. My cousin, Nathan, from Ohio finally tied the knot there. He married a sweet little girl named Lindsey. I had never met her until Saturday. And had actually seen only a picture of her until she walked down the "plank!". Literally!
It was one of the most unique weddings I've ever attended in my life. The roar of the waves crashing onto the beach, the cheers of the onlookers who were complete strangers (there were literally hundreds of those - on the beach itself and on the balconies of hundreds of resort hotel rooms) and the feeling of cool sand falling around my feet with every step I took, made this unlike any wedding I've ever attended in my life. But my, it was beautiful!
The beach was decorated with a white arbor and several white chairs with an aisle made between them. The chairs had beautiful hot pink and orange tulle draped from chair to chair. The arbor sported a beautiful orange and pink swag. On the end of each row of chairs was a candle holder with hit pink and orange Gerber daisies. There were the same colored petals strewn all over the sand down the aisle. Instead of the traditional unity candle, they mixed the sand together - Nathan's sand was orange, Lindsey's was pink!!
Did I mention this wedding was beautiful?
Anyway, I was thrilled I got to go and witness the occasion. Nathan and his family hold a very dear spot in my heart and I'm really happy for him. Afterwards he said that this day was the happiest day of his life- and that's the way it should be!!

I can see Zachary all over Nathan. He reminds me so much of him. I am so glad that you got to go - wish I could have been there too! Addison looks gorgeous as usual :) she doesn't look too sure of Nathan in that last picture tho! Hope the sand didn't get in between her toes :) Love ya.
Someone needs to teach Laura how to make Happy faces. :) is pretty bland. How about :0), or ;-) for a girl, or :-). But eyes and mouth that just don't get it. Love ya.
