I had wanted to post about this much earlier in the week, but I was exhausted after the amazing weekend and couldn't muster the energy to post. But alas, I post.
This past weekend, on Friday, May 5, 2006, my oldest friend in the world married her long time love. What can one say about a wedding such as this? Not a lot that can be put into words. It was truly amazing. The bride looked beautiful, the food was wonderful, and the dancing didn't stop all night. It was one of the best weddings I have ever been to, if not the best. Every last detail was planned and purposefully done in a certain way, and Eric and Heather could be seen in every last one. It was warm and inviting, the way a wedding should be. It wasn't stuffy or boastful. It was overflowing with love.
But again, I can't quite put into words just how the whole event made me feel, and so, my 13 today are 13 images from the day. Enjoy them. I know that I'll enjoy these photos - and the many memories - for the rest of my life.

A big congratulations and I love you to Eric and Heather Whitten. I know that they will share a life of unwaivering love and devotion.
And a happy Thursday to you all.

Marriage is a great thing - I married my high school sweetheart almost 13 years ago and still so much in love!
