What a wonderful day. My brother Caleb, or Aubey (as I used to call him), got married to my new sister and best friend Maegan. I absolutely love the two of them together and am so happy for them to begin this journey together. My dad performed the ceremony and it was beautiful-he's so eloquent with his words. They shared communion together as a couple and braided a three strand cord to represent that they will entwine their relationship with The Lord. It was really unique. Maegan's mom Danise built the arbor and the archway and created most of the decorations for the tables herself. She is so creative and good with her hands. We had an excellent meal of pork chops, danced the night away, and visited with family and friends. It was so good to see everyone all in one place-a little overwhelming trying to visit with everyone. I wish I had more time to sit down and really chat with those who came. Caleb's grooms cake had a big fish in the middle of it and Caleb, being the fisherman that he is, fileted the fish behind the gills and then chopped him in half. haha So funny. Maegan's brides cake was beautiful and yet again, her mom designed the flower arrangement that layered the cake. Mom and Caleb danced to "Heart to Heart" by Toby Keith, Maegan and her mom danced to "You Can't Hurry Love" by The Dixie Chicks, and Maegan and Caleb danced to "It Feels Like Home to Me" by Bonnie Raitt. They left in a 4-wheel drive Kubota to drive up to the top of the hill where their honeymoon cabin was waiting along with two chairs overlooking property below and stars above. It was a magical night and it seemed perfect to me. I even got to do a little two stepping with Caleb, a little "get down" dancing with Katy and Maegan and the other bridesmaids, and a little line dancing with everyone else.
