Rehearsal!

So on December 3, mine and Taylor's families arrived in Lubbock along with 4 members of the bridal party that flew in. We had people flying in from Dallas, Charlotte, L.A. Des Moines, Orlando and Kansas City! Luckily for me, Christi arrived a week early to be my (in her words mind you!) my wedding slave!

We had our rehearsal at The Legacy and afterwards we all gathered at the Lakeridge Country Club for dinner. We had some delicious Italian food and some delicious wine! Here are our good friends Todd and Kayla who joined us from Ft. Worth and then there's Jeralyn and Tim whose daughters Raegan and Sydney were our guest book attendants!

Here are the two most influential women in my life, my Mom and my Memaw! With a special guest appearance by a framed Jenn and Taylor :)
Half of the bridal party...Adam, Graham, Court and Logan looking through their goodie bags full of gifts from me and Feeeedler!
The other half of the bridal party, Spencer, Jenny, Jer Bear, Suleika...with a special appearance by Christi's back!
My matron of honor, my beee-utiful seeeester Lindsey! It looks like she's accepting an award haha!
Mi Familia! My uncle Tony, Lins, Step-Dad Steve, my Mom, and my sweet Memaw and Papaw! With a sneak attack from Baby Feeedler in the back!
Taylor's family flew in from all over the country, starting at the top, Taylor's Grandad and Uncle from Florida, Taylor's brother Jacob who flew in from Norman (yes he goes to OU but we love him anyway!) Taylor's Aunt Janey from Iowa, cousins Andy and Jess from Minnesota, Grammy from Iowa and Feeeedler's parents who flew in from Kansas City!

On a very WEIRD side note, Taylor's cousin by marriage Andy used to play semi-pro hockey and was a member of the Lubbock Cotton Kings which I happened to go to many games during undergrad. What's even more weird is that we both lived in the same apartment complex at the same time! And now almost 10 years later we meet and become cousins!

Taylor and his Aunt Julie from IowaBrian, Taylor's childhood friend, Baby Feeedler, Dana (Taylor's Mom) feeling groovy haha and Graham, Taylor's best friend in High School. We had a great time hanging out and getting to know each other (this was the first time our extended families met) and afterwards the bridal party came over to our house for an impromptu pre-wedding, last night as single party! Next up.....Pre-wedding! :)
