just pull me down hard & drown me in love [part 3]
Butterfly, Jason Mraz- this is the hottest song ever. if any of you boys out there wanna make a girl pin you to the bed, just play this song for her.
kyle & hope's wedding tonight was sooo perfect. :] i wish i had pictures to show, but my camera blows. i did take a fun video of hope dancing to a maniacal medley with her dad, but it's pretty pixely too. i didn't think i was gonna cry at this wedding cause i figured i'd been to enough of them by now that the sappy-ness had lost its charm, but i was wrong. here's why: hope & kyle have a relationship that is so totally centered on God. that made all the difference. and maybe the reason it meant so much to me was also because i remember that it was not always easy for hope to keep kyle second to God. I remember her struggles before kyle came along, and after. i remember watching her fall in love with him and how obvious it all was that a higher power had planned this from the moment she was born. i want to have that kind of patience and self-control- that kind of faith in God. Instead, I always take relationships into my own hands. I make and break them. I sometimes cling to them in desperation. I spend all my energies trying to keep people happy. And sometimes I keep people at a distance. I will be sure not to get hurt if no one gets near me. i make too many decisions out of fear. it's bad. i'm working on it.
the wedding was very long. i could tell all hope wanted to do was get to the part where she could kiss him. if i were a cartoonist, i would draw the squiggly magnetism between their lips. and it was a good kiss too.
we danced like crazies all night. you'd have thought the peach tea was spiked, but no. the food was to die for. mostly because i am obsessed with gorgonzola and candied walnuts in fruity salads. and the eggplant, squash, zuchinni thing was perfection. and the ravioli was drenched in the most amazing bisque-like sauce. and i covered my roll in some kind of pink dressing stuff. i still dunno what that was, but dang.
it was a fabulous party all around. and the DJ played my request! Lucky, Jason Mraz ft. Colbie Caillet. :] Wow that is the second time i said something about mister mraz. i swear i'm not obsessed. okay, fine. lies.
they also played girl talk and THAT, my friends, is what a dance party is all about.
we all had giant sparklers at the send-off. as you can imagine, there were many that's what she said's muttered under breaths.
hannah is coming to see me tomorrow. *a million & one smiley faces, peace signs, x's & o's*
did i mention that hope & kyle won a contest in modern bride magazine? they are on their way to fiji right now. private beach, bungalow, free food, free entertainment (but let's be honest- who needs entertainment when you get to have hot sex on a beach all day.) the perfect honemoon.
i am so in love with love right now.
