~Lauren and Jared's Rehearsal Dinner~
~Lauren and Jared's Rehearsal Dinner~
@The Patriot Country Club
I was honored to be a bridesmaid at my cousin Lauren's wedding on May 4, 2013.
I still remember her as a baby and can't believe she is all grown up and married now!
Her wedding had many special and unique touches that made the decor gorgeously elegant....
They were married in the pecan grove at the Glover Ranch. Who would have thought that it would be a rainy 40 degrees...FREEZING in May!
But we huddled together and made it through the outdoor ceremony.
~Wedding Time @ The Glover Ranch~
Lauren and her sister Abby LOVE to dance and so it was only fitting that she had a choreographed dance with her dad and then again with all the bridesmaids.
If you search on youtube, I'm sure you can find me busting a move on there somewhere.
I actually enjoyed it...reminding me of college days with my ZETA girls when, yes, we did the same at hall parties...5, 6, 7, 8!
Congrats, Mr. and Mr Jared Glover!!

~Mayfest
We decided to take Perry with us to Mayfest this year.
He did so well and received several compliments on his good behavior...proud doggie parents!
The food at Mayfest is always a hit with us. We devoured a pork sandwich from a local food truck, a chocolate covered banana and a loaded funnel cake (chocolate sauce, vanilla pudding, whip cream and strawberries)...YUMMY!

Ben and I volunteered with Outback to serve food to the Moore community.
Our tent was set up outside of Journey Church in Norman. I was amazed at the quick organization the church had done and how generous people were...rooms full of donations...way to go Oklahoma!
Burger and chicken sandwich prep...
After serving the food from the church we loaded up bags of food to deliver in the devastated areas. It was truly eye opening to see the destruction in person.
My heart was breaking the whole time we were there.
On a positive note, we served Wolf Blitzer from CNN "The Situation Room" a chicken sandwich. I have an (un)healthy obsession with news anchors so I spotted that man about a block away.
He was really nice and funny and even offered to take these pictures with us.
God Bless Moore
Our sweet friend Casey lost her home in the tornadoes.
She is so generous that it's hard for her to accept help from others.... Ben and I along with our families did what we could to help her.
After seeing this devastation, I was dying to give her a big HUG! We went to her sister's house in OKC and did just that. We LOVE you Casey!
This is a picture from when we lived together. Below is Heidi who was thankfully found 1 mile away from Casey's house after the tornado. I'm so glad these two are safe!

~First baby shower for Lindsay and Brea
I got her a gift basket full of ...headbands, monthly onesie stickers, books and a little hat.
You could easily say that I'm already going to spoil this special niece of mine!
~Busy month of May with lots of memories to cherish~
....with Love & Joy....
