Andy graduated from Baylor then hopped on an airplane with his family and my bridesmaids and headed to Branson for our rehearsal dinner. (I, too, graduated from Baylor thirteen years ago today, but I didn't make my graduation. . .I was too busy cutting all of the thorns off of hundreds of white roses!)
I remember thinking that I couldn't believe that I was actually at my own wedding rehearsal and that I was actually marrying that guy. I felt so lucky at that moment. I do remember that!
I don't remember what was said to make my mouth so huge, but I have a feeling it had to do with the "you may kiss the bride" part of the ceremony. I was so mortified at the thought of my dad being the one to say that and I'm sure one of my bridesmaids caught on to that and said something funny. . .that is my huge I'm so nervous that I'm laughing mouth (huge, I know)!
My Uncle Bob, Lyndon Bowring and my Dad and I at the rehearsal dinner. Lyndon is my "British Father" (I lived with his family while I studied in England for a semester) and he flew in to be our preacher for the wedding. I adore all three of these men!
