This time 10 years ago...

It was the day of our rehearsal. Details were all over the place in the 89+ degree heat. Family and friends were arriving to sweet little Greenville asking "What can I do?". Russ took some of his fellas putt-putt golfing while us girls ran around town giggling. We arrived at the steps of Hogue Hall (an historic building on campus that was torn down last month! What does that say?) ready to "practice" getting married. Our coordinator was nothing but business that evening which was probably like trying to corral hyper livestock in a rainy field wearing stilettos and a blindfold. Poor woman. I should probably send her some Arbonne to help with the wrinkles caused by my wedding party.


"Why," one might ask,"is Katie standing so awkwardly?" Oh...in my haste to get there on time after getting the reception hall ready, I forgot to put a bra on. Smooth, real smooth...

I was looking at pictures today and found one of Dan and I. I was trying to remember where we were and noticed I was wearing the bridesmaid dress from your wedding. We were standing right outside Houge Hall. Isn't that weird?

Katie said...

Yeah, sorry about those dresses. Yikes. It would have been cheaper to just use burlap sacks.

Bob Hansel said...

Ok, how do you forget something like that? AND, are Russ's socks pulled up? Oh dear...

Jon said...

I obviously was there because I'm in the above picture but how do I not remember that? That was a fun weekend for sure. Congrats guys on 10 years! Here's to 50 more.

Bra or no bra, you looked absolutely radiant! Ten years. Wow. That's a decade. That's a fifth grade child. I'm impressed.
