My Best Friend's Wedding

How is it Monday already?  I feel like Friday just got here!  Though Matt and I didn't have a particularly thrilling weekend, it was definitely just what the doctor ordered.  Quiet and restful, filled with movies, snuggles, and a few too many chocolate chip cookies :)  A few weeks ago I was in Dallas for my best friend's wedding, and now that I've finally finished sifting through all of the pictures, I wanted to share them with you.  I actually didn't take nearly enough pictures, because there weren't too many moments I wasn't crying, hugging my BFF, or busy doing my maid-of-honor duties.  But luckily my friend Melissa and her hubby Brian snapped away all night, perfectly capturing how much fun we had!

The beautiful bride!  At this point, I was standing at the front of the church (bawling like a baby) but I love this sneak peek picture that Melissa captured.  So sweet.

At the reception with my lovely parents.  No matter how old I get, they never fail to make me feel special.

Me and my dear friend Melissa.  Melissa was my big sis on the drill team and one of my very best friends in high school (and still is today.)  She and her husband have hosted me the past few times I've been in Dallas, and can I just say, the Hilton ain't got nothing on them!

Out of the dancefloor.  PS: I'm not sure whose dance moves are crazier, mine or the lady in leopard to the left of me :)

Me and my man :)  PS: Matt was a groomsman, and it was kinda fun walking down the aisle and seeing him standing up there.  Flashbacks to our wedding day :)

Out on the dancefloor doing the Cupid Shuffle.  Check out my cutie patootie dad (and my crazy husband next to him lol!)

I never hesitate to strike a pose.

Cake time (and ohhh that cake was yummy!)

The parentals, in case you were wondering where I get my good looks ;)

No matter how long its been since we've seen each other last, we always seem to pick up right where we left off.

Giving my toast (which turned out even better than I'd hoped for!)

Some of the guys...Matt, Eric, Matt

How sad is it that this is the ONLY picture I have of my best friend and I at her wedding?!  Seriously, sad.  (PS: In case you're wondering, Jordan did a mid-reception dress change into a leopard and peacock party dress, so fun!)

Jesse (the dancing machine), Steven, and Kendall.  (PS: Kendall all the pics of you and Jesse are blurry, your dance moves were just too good!)

We barely left the dancefloor all night.  The band was absolutely incredible!

And the newlyweds are off!  Such a fabulous and special day, and I'm so happy I got to stand by Jordan's side on her and Ricky's big day!

And even though we only managed one picture from her actual wedding day, we have this picture from the day Jordan took her bridal portraits (mentioned in this post.)  A big thanks for Stefani at TRU Identity for sharing this special picture with me.  I love love love this picture and it makes me SO happy to know my best friend got the guy of her dreams!
