Well, it's official. My brother is married. What a great weekend! On November 21 it was a freezing day in Texas. It was raining and cold and just plain dreary. The weather forecast called for wintry conditions over the wedding weekend. It did not snow/ice like the meteorologists predicted (I wish I had their job so I could get paid to be wrong!)
Anywho, on Friday we had the rehearsal/dinner. Thankfully we made it into the church with minimal rain on our hair. It was a little chaotic trying to remember everything for the wedding day. Catholic weddings are so long and there is a lot of sitting, kneeling, standing, etc going on. Our one job as bridesmaids was to say "Amen" with expression at the end of the vows. Our rehearsal was a B+ I think... or a C...
We then made our way to Gloria's in Allen for some yummy Mexican food. I was a bit nervous because I would be making a speech. I wanted to make sure that Eden and Craig knew how happy I was that they were getting married and how far we have come in our brother/sister relationship. Not an easy task, but I think it went great. Here are a few fun pictures from the evening.
My sisters!

Adam! He was sweet and sang me "A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes"
Saturday - 6:00 AM - Get up and Shower! 7:00 AM - Call time at the hotel for hair and makeup! I had so much fun just hanging out at the hotel with the girls! We laughed and talked and just relaxed before the wedding. What an incredible morning until about 11:15 when it was time to actually get our dresses on and head to the church. It was all hands on deck at that point! Get to the church and get our wedding on! The ceremony was beautiful! Eden had borrowed our mom's rosary and it was woven into her bouquet. It was so beautiful and touching. Father Kelly did an amazing job with the ceremony and the homily was very beautiful and touching. Our "AMEN" was about an A! It would have been an A+ but we had to be cued. No one fell or tripped or forgot their lines. The reception was at the Old Flour Mill. I might be biased but I had the most fun at this wedding! It was amazing! At the end of the night we threw Rainbow Sprinkles as Craig and Eden left in a vintage jaguar. It was a fantastic night! 
Adam sang part of his best man's speech and did an amazing job!
