Remember how I said my mind was “reeling”? All these little details are so jumbled up in my head. I think we might have found a photographer, my invitations and other things are a blessing, I’ve looked at cakes, and so much more! It seems like a long way away until November, but I just thought if I could get these big things taken care of now, I would be able to focus on smaller things closer to time and maybe (?) try to relax a little come time for the wedding. That might just be a big HA!, though…I guess we shall see!

Crystal and Shane,
Stephen and I are so excited for you both and if you will remember back….way back to March, I was lucky enough to meet Shane on one of his first trips to GA for one of those first nervous dates with Crystal. I was introduced to Shane at Stone Mtn. after bumping into you two and I told Stephen that night that I really, really liked Shane. He just FITS with all of us and our crazy sense of comedic humor. He GETS our inside jokes and has opened himself up to share so much of his feelings for Crystal. As talented and blessed as Crystal is with her decorating, teaching children and her complete girly FRU FRU ways, Shane completely complements that with his masculine charm, his southern hospitality and his array of artistic endeavors. (His work still amazes me every time I see a new piece or project) Above all, I am so thankful that Crystal’s persistence to not “settle” for just a “date” but to wait on her “perfect mate” paid off and God has blessed each of them with a “soul mate”. Thank God daily for the blessing of starting your new lives in with a Christian home and Shane, I hate to tell you this BUT….when you get Crystal, you get ALL of US also. WE love you both to pieces and can’t wait for the BIG DAY to get here.
Ok, that just brought a HUGE smile to my face, Chasity! Thank you!!! I do remember meeting you at Stone Mtn. in that “kid” area. Crystal’s pic on all of her posts was taken at Stone Mtn and you’re right…that was one of our first “dates” together. I don’t know about Crystal, but I don’t really know if there was any “nervousness” between us. We have always just seemed to “know” each other and have always been comfortable. We’re really just two dorks in love! 😀
As for getting ALL of you, I told Crystal a long time ago that I loved you guys & gals! Every one of you have been great to me and made me feel like part of the “family” since the beginning. Crystal has been blessed to be surrounded by such great friends. I thank God not only for Crystal…but for all of you as well. 😉
