A Valentine's Day Wedding


We were lucky enough to be able to attend my cousin Mark and now is wife Shannon. It was such a beautiful wedding with such a great story behind it. Many years ago, when Mark and Shannon were in elementary school they were "dating". You know the typical "we dating" thing, they don't go anywhere or really talk to each other. For Valentine's day Mark asked Shannon what she wanted. She requested 1 rose. He got all dresses up, and had my aunt Carol drive him over. He knocked on the door and ran away! Fast forward to last Valentine's day. Shannon was packing to move back to Indiana. Mark was supposedly in Arizona (that is what Shannon thought). He actually flew to Atlanta to surprise her. He arrived at her apartment, got down on one kneed with a rose, and knocked on the door. When she opened the door, he was there asking her to marry her. Now, to this year they were married on Valentine's day. Too cute, right?

We had a great time. Everything was breath taking! We love you both!

How many "men" does it take to roll up and isle runner?
Apparently 3 plus

Look at the cake topper....too funny!

Don't mess with the "Boss"

So, this has nothing to do with the wedding. A while back our neighbor called his car a "hooptie". I am not going to say either way, but if you would like to be the judge...come over! Korey and I got such a kick out of that I feel I have to capture a hooptie when I see one.
