Going To The Chapel....

This past weekend we headed to Hot Springs for Wendy and Brian's wedding. Wendy is Landen's cousin. We love being around her and her two boys! It seems like no time has passed when we get the rare chance to hang out with them. We met Brian at Children's Hospital during Leightyn's home-going. They had just started dating and I remember telling WeWe "he's a keeper". Not only does Brian treat Wendy and the boys awesomely (is that a word?), he has a spot in his heart for Mylea.

Between Leightyn's visitation and funeral, Mylea fell in love with "boyfriend". That's her name for Brian. I remember him and Wendy coming back from the mall. They returned with a dress and matching hair bows for Mylea.....and a cookie! I'm not sure if it was the hair bow or the cookie that won her over?

I love watching Brian with the boys.....you would think they were his own. I also love seeing him with Mylea. When he is around, no one else exists. The weekend of the race, we were getting everything packed up and Brian had to stop and help Mylea play tee ball and then help her pick out some dress up clothes. Not to many guys out there that would drop everything for a little toot that it not theirs!

With all that said....I want Wendy to know that I don't think she could have picked a better man to be her husband or a dad to her kids!!!!

Back to the wedding......months ago Mylea was asked to be the flower girl. All we told her was that she would walk down the aisle in a pretty dress and drop/hold a basket of flowers. Well, whenever we mentioned the wedding, Mylea wanted to know how come Wendy couldn't hold her own flowers. Why did she have to hold them for Wendy? So I wasn't sure how she would do. Before the wedding, my dad told Mylea to throw the flowers at people....and I wondered if she would!

The wedding was great! It was a very special day! Mylea was so excited to see her "cousins". As soon as Brannon and Brayson arrived, they took off to play. It was so sweet to see Mylea and Brayson walking down the stairs holding hands. She was excited to walk down the aisle with Brayson.

Congrats Wendy and Brian! We love you guys!
