As I said in a preveious entry I'd probably be talking to you guys again as Mrs. Bell. Yep I was right. Friday the tenth was our rehearsal. Early that morning my baby sister was in a lot of pain. She was taken to the emergency roo More on that later. So rehearsal was great. We met with all the family. Everyone had a blast talking and laughing. We even had a fire at the end of the night. The best part of that night for me was when his mom came up to me and was like "ok daughter I'm leavin you." I gave her a huge hug and told her I wasn't officially daughter until tomorrow" Her response "baby you've been official for the passed 3 years." I was feeling pretty awesome at that point. I went to bed pretty early Friday night because I knew I had a long day ahead the next day. sure enough six Am came and I was wide awake. Sam and I went to get our hair doene. While this was getting done sam got the call they wouldn't be releasing brit and I lost it. All I wanted more then ever was my baby girl in my wedding. So needless to say I was a bit devistated but never the less the show had to go on. I asked my cousin Taylor to fill in for brit. The wedding was awesome. We had to delay the start of it 30 minutes because of rain. i wasn't gonna let that ruin my day. At 4:30 everything went off without a hitch. The one thing I wasnt expecting was for my step father to get really emotional. I thought he was gonna lose it walking down the peer towards chris. He kissed me goodbye and handing me to chris who walked me into the gazibo to meet the minister. The ceremony was beautiful. We said our vowls and exchanged rings. then we did a sand pouring ceremony in place of a unity candle. This ceremony has two individual containers full of sand and one big container that the sand gets poured into. The two smaller containers represented chris and I as individuals. The big container represented our becoming one. Our mothers took the smaller containers and poured half of them into the bigger container. Then they handed them to chris and I and we finished pouring them as a symbolization of us becoming husband and wife. Then we were pronounced Mr. and Mrs. Christopher bell and we kissed. Then we walked to the end of the peer and were greeted by everyone. That was a long wait. Then we were driven around on the golf cart by our best man and maid of honor and the crowd blew bubbles at us instead of throwing rice. That was a nice touch. Then we went inside and were introduced as Mr. and Mrs. Bell for the first time in public. It was great. The dinner was awesome. The roasted pork was a major hit. Then we had our first dance as husband and wife to Me and you by Kenny Chesney. Aftr that I danced with my dad and I don't think there was a dry eye in the room. Then chris and his mom danced. After that we went outside to do group pictures. My feet were killing me at this point so after that was done I was barefoot. Then came the cake cutting. Chris was all nice me well not so much. That was a blast. Then we did the guarder and bouquet tosses. Ours had a twist to them though. After chris took the guarder off my leg I had to put it on him. That was fun. then I decided to be silly and take it offf with my teeth. Everyone thought that was funny. Then the toasts were next. My sister was my made of honor and she couldn't keep herself together. It was a very sweet toast. Then the best man gave his. It was funny. Then we had our anniversary dance. We were the last couple out since we were the most recently married. That was great. Then chris and his mom were called on the floor. Rumor had it that there were keys to the apartment around and sure enough everyone had a key including my grandmother who had the last one. It was funny. Then we had our last dance which was I cross my heart by george straight.
