Tonight we had a surprise bridal shower for our good friend from Church, Alana. As some of you know, she (as well as her fiance Jon more recently) has been our faithful babysitter for about 3 years now. She serves us with joy (even as we add more kiddos to be babysat over the years!) and even without wanting to be paid ... we are so incredibly blessed for the countless ways they serve us, and the kids love and adore them as well. So tonight was the Church shower that her best friend (maid of honor) and I planned. We surprised her which was a lot of fun. There were around 50 ladies there so we had a good turnout. They are getting married June 17th. June is the month of weddings for us ... friends in Hbg. are getting married the 10th, then Jon and Alana on the 17th, then Ryan (my big brother!) and Hollis on the 24th!!!
It will be Hailey and Justin's first time being in a wedding (they are flower girl/ring bearer in Jon and Alana's) ... I tried talking Alana out of having Justin in it, but she insisted ... so I pre-warned her that you'll be incredibly lucky to get the kid down the isle. And WALKING down the isle ... we that's close to impossible ... if anything maybe he'll RUN! But oh well ... it will definitely be a memory (I just don't know what kind of memory!). At least he'll be handsome in his suit! Hailey talks about wearing her 'pretty dress' and walking down the isle dropping flowers all the time, so I'm hoping she'll do alright. I'm a bridesmaid in the wedding, so maybe having me walk down the isle before them will help!
Dad and Mom (and Matt!), we're looking forward to having you come for a visit tomorrow!
