In case you didn't know, I have a group of 12 girlfriends from college who I get together with pretty much every summer. They are amazing and make me laugh harder than anyone in the world. We can all be ourselves when we're together and we talk about nothing just as much as we talk about everything. Here are 9 of us at Jenni's wedding (Nikki & Julie couldn't make it and the bride was MIA). *by the way... NONE of these pictures for Jenni's are mine. I completely forgot my camera and have stolen all of these from E and Courtney. Thanks girls.
All of us with the bride at the bridal luncheon. Jenni is sporting a Clemson garter that all of the married girls in our group have worn and initialed/dated and passed to the next person, and she's also showcasing a jewelry box (version 2.0) that we all get with a little engraved message and a picture of our whole group with the bride AND groom on their wedding day. It's the little things :-)
We worked all afternoon putting together centerpieces for the reception... and they turned out pretty good if I do say so.
And here we all are getting our picture with the bride and groom for Jenni's jewelry box. I'm sure he wasn't overwhelmed by us at all...
Exhibit A of why I love my friends: Meg decided her bridesmaid dress was too hot and too restrictive for dancing so she and Liz cut it off. Did I ever mention how classy we are?
Exhibit B of why I love my friends: we all fall to our knees (not pictured) and break out in air guitar when "Livin' on a Prayer" comes on.
Here is Liz with the beautiful Pryor whose wedding in Knoxville I missed a few weeks ago. I just saw pictures and it was beautiful and perfectly Pryor.
However, we DID get to go to Huntington, WV - literally one of our favorite places on earth - to attend Garrett and Allie's wedding. Garrett is Hunter's brother, and Hunter and Jeannie are some of our very very best friends. Schub and I spent several Thanksgivings with Garrett and Hunter's family when we were in St. Louis and it was too far to travel home. They are like a second family to us and we are so so excited that beautiful Allie is now a part of the family too! ... not that we're REALLY family, but I often mistake myself for family, so I feel like I can welcome Allie to the family :-)
How much do you love her dress?!
Seriously... she is beautiful
Schub even ran into some old friends that he had gone to Slovakia with (also where he first met Garrett) that he had fun catching up with.
Schub and Hunter... besties :-)
Hunter, open your eyes!
Yes I wore the same thing to Jenni's wedding. A girl 7.5 months prego only has so many things she can wear to a wedding.
Me and Marilyn, our wonderful Thanksgiving host and mother of the groom.
Me and Jeans... the other besties :-)
I love summer and I love weddings.

You look beautiful Lil L. Gee, I miss you.
It was great to see you and your cute belly! Glad you guys could make the trip.
P.S. I love that Huntington, WV is one of your favorite places! :)
Schub sans beard! My goodness, those pictures of him looked like they could have been taken in high school.
Hello! So, where is your post all about me naming me as your bestie?! I really am going to put you in my pocket...and not let you out. You will literally have to deliver your baby in my pocket. Good luck...
