Two weekends ago, Haley Carter and I hit the road to Memphis, TN. The reason: our friends Greg and Lori were getting married, and bonus the "friend" group was able to spend some time together. It was a whirlwind weekend, but I am so glad we go to go and share in their special day. And it was a wonderful treat to spend time with sweet Emily, Haley F., Grayson (and his wife), and Katye (and her husband). It was wonderful to all be together if even for a short while.
Haley and I hit the road Friday night and drove to Jackson. We stayed with Lori, and it was great to be able to see her for a little while. We didn't get to spend much time together because we left early Saturday morning for Memphis. However, it is always good to see the sister.
We got to Memphis around lunch time and right as the bottom was falling out. Let me tell you, that was fun... We had lunch, ironically enough where Greg was with his all friends from the wedding, and where Emily was having lunch with her Memphis friends. We could not have pulled that off again if we tried.

It was pouring!

After lunch we headed back to the hotel to hangout. Little did we know the power was out because of the storm. It was little humid for awhile, but finally the power came back on. It was just in time to get ready for the wedding.

I had a great time catching up with everyone. We all do not get to get together very often, so it was a special time. I even got to spend some time with sweet Sarah. She is such a doll!

We went to the wedding and reception, and had a great time. The wedding was beautiful ceremony, and the reception had great food and fellowship.

It was a late night so we went to bed when we got back to the hotel, and headed out early Sunday morning. It was a long drive home, but it was worth it. But, there really is "no place like home."
We wish Greg and Lori all the happiness!!!
