just a couple more...

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Life is busy, but what's new. :) Anyways, I wanted to post a couple more pictures from the trip.

Our ride for the weekend. I wasn't disappointed that I wasn't on the car rental since I didn't care to be seen driving this thing. :)

On Monday morning, Mom and I met Mrs. Towle, Liz, and Rachel at a coffee shop in town. We had a really good visit with them and it was a really neat shop.


Rachel + Liz + Me = Trouble :)

thanksgiving day

Thanksgiving was a little different this year. We had less siblings here and some extended family come that doesn't usually. It was also my first Thanksgiving with a boyfriend. When I introduced him to one of Daddy's cousins she flopped down in a chair and said she couldn't believe I was old enough. At our house on Thanksgiving, you can listen in and hear the most interesting conversations, or not interesting. :) The Lord gave us beautiful sunny weather that wasn't unbearable hot!

It's not Thanksgiving Day at our house until you have the football game...


I liked the quarterback right here. :)


Three cousins that are so grown up now!


Hannah and Lilah

Faces from the day...




To the family that wasn't here - you were greatly missed!

{The Wedding}

So for those that have been waiting for pictures of the wedding, here they are...

The three sisters~ they all looked so beautiful! I had fun doing Rachel and Liz's hair for the wedding. It's very rare that I do people's hair so I liked the oppurtunity. You can't tell from the pictures, but I curled Liz's and put Rachel's up. Rachel did a really good job on Esther's too. Just wish I could do my own. :)
John just had to get his head in this picture. :)

Here comes the bride...


It was fun to have Joe there and I enjoyed getting to hang out with him a little.

They had a large wedding with six bridesmaids/groomsman plus Jr. Groomsmen/Bridesmaid and Flowergirl and Ring Bearer. Dana did not actually pick a maid of honor because she couldn't decide between the six girls who she was closes too. In the pictures, I missed a bridemaid that was Dana's friend who was with a man in the Navy that David was deployed with and also one Dana's cousins and her brother. The ringbearer and flowergirl were not announced so unfortunately I don't have a picture of them.

The Mr. and Mrs.

All of the groomsmen and bridesmaids spoke at the wedding. The groomsmen all said how they knew David and either something they liked about him or a story. The bridesmaids all did the same for Dana.

Joe had the most entertaining speech seeing as how he grew up with David. I still think it's funny that those two have remained friends all these years even though they are such opposites. They are more a like now then they ever were growing up!  

the dress...

                It was really hard getting good pictures in the church and the fellowship hall because of the lighting, but I tried. I looked around at the reception and it was still hitting me that it was David's wedding and he's now a married man! It's been awhile since I was around the whole Towle family and it was good to be able to see them all again. I have some more pictures of the trip plus Thanksgiving Day I'm going to post, but I know people were looking forward to seeing these.
