Kim & Erik's wedding was yesterday, July 10th, and I was a bridesmaid. The days activities started at 10:30 with my hair appointment but I woke up at 5am with Miss Hannah. It was still so hot in our bedroom that she woke up early & I couldn't get back to sleep after feeding her (no AC) so I took a shower, pumped, got Ethan's clothes out for the day (he showered with daddy after I left & after a hair cut), dressed Hannah, got all my stuff together (dress, undergarments, shoes, jewelry, etc.), fed Hannah again, left instructions for the day with Marcus & left. On the way I stopped by Dollar Tree and got cheap vases for the bouquets to set in & be decorations after use on tables for Kim. I got my hair done & then met up with Kim at her apt. I then drove her to pick up her dress from the dry cleaners (it was being pressed) and then we went to Shannon's hotel to meet up with her & Megan to do lunch. We got lunch at an Indian place near by and then went back to Shannon's hotel to get the cupcakes to take to the wedding site (Erik's folks house). Once there Shannon & I made the bouquets and Kim & Megan put decorations on the tables with some helpers. Then we all did our makeup and got dressed. Then it was time to take some pre-wedding pictures of us ladies by the photographer. Then the show began. It was such a happy wedding nary a tear was shed. I was just so happy for her. They make such a good pair! The ceremony was short & sweet and then it was party time. Marcus was super daddy with the kiddos the majority of the time. I made sure he was able to get food and go to the bathroom but other than that he was tending to their needs. The food was great! They had red & white wine and of course a keg. And champagne for toasting. Erik's mom had champagne glasses engraved for the wedding party which I thought was super sweet of her & a nice keepsake. Kim's gift to me was a travel jewelry box which I packed my jewelry in for the day & love, it's pink of course! Marcus had to leave early, around 9pm so after that I felt a little like a wall flower but it was a fun night and I was happy to be there for Kim & help make her day perfect. I hope she is happy with how it all came together & thinks back with good memories of her special day! Love you Kim and I wish you & Erik nothing but the best!
