WEDDING!

Nope not me.  I was in a second wedding this year in Hastings, Nebraska.  This wedding was for my two friends from college, Ashley and Nolan.

Highlights
I knew going into this wedding, that it was going to be very Catholic, which I am totally fine with.  I also knew I was going to be the only non-Catholic person in the wedding party, meaning I am the only one that doesn't have a clue what all this kneeling, sitting, standing business is.  During the rehearsal while the priest was going over everything including communion, he asked, "Well...is anyone not Catholic?" All heads of the wedding party that knew me swung their heads to look down at the tallest bridesmaid.  I slowly raised my hand like I was being called out by the teacher in front of the class.   He smiled and said, "Oh! You always need that Protestant in the group." Everyone quietly laughed including myself and then I said, "Well...actually I'm Mormon." He looked at me for a second, like I just uttered an alien language then went on to tell me that if I did not want to partake of the communion what I needed to do.   Now, before anyone flies off the handle...I DID appreciate him telling me what to do because I felt it would be inappropriate for me to take communion.  Its just a great story.

Our awesome mug holders the bride made us and our flowers!



That is their last name...too funny!
Dancing fools! We were definitely rockin the stankey leg!
