Wedding Prep. & Wedding Party

The big day was finally here. Us girls rolled ourselves out of bed at 5:00 oclock. Oh, if we could only sleep in for a little longer. I think all of us know a bit of what that feels like. The day before it had snowed all day, so it was very cold out! The night before we stayed up late talking.The guys had earlier tried to throw Justin out in the snow - failed attempt. Lets just say we only got a few (like two) hours of sleep. Anyways, we all grabbed some food and headed out to the car where Dad was waiting. He drove us 20 minutes to the church and dropped us off there.

We started with the girls hair right away. Sarah did an amazing job on the girls!

Jessica did Kaitlyn's hair while she did her sisters hair.

We were all in a goofy mood; laughing at our mistakes instead of worrying about them. 

Jaylon and Hannah were so sweet to go and pick up Star Bucks coffee for us all. 

We started to run a little late, so we were thankful when Hannah showed up to help with the hair.

Jessica was doing such a great job on Kaitlyn's hair. 

I quick curled Jubilee's hair, hoping that it would turn out in a few hours.

Everything was starting to take shape and it started dawning on all of us what was about to take place. Some where filled with excitement with the thought, others had to shed a few tears. I kept myself busy and my mind on what I was doing at the moment, which helped. :)

Jubilee loves new dresses, so when we told her that she was going to get a new dress for the wedding she could hardly wait to see it.  :) 

She loved it!! 

The girls looked amazing in their dresses.

I had the job of pinning on all the boutonnieres and the corsages. Lilia and a few of the other girls helped me out when they could. 

The last touches and everything was looking great!

Kaitlyn looked amazing in her dress! 

Juliana (friend of Kaitlyn), Zoe (Kaitlyn's cousin), Hope (Kailtyn's sister), Joanna (friend of Kaitlyn) and Lillia (Kaitlyn's sister)

Flower girls Elaina (Kaitlyn's sister) and Joy (Kaitlyn's sister)

I stepped out of the room where the girls were getting ready and found Justin to put on his boutonniere. He looked so handsome all dressed up! I couldn't believe that my little brother was getting married. The day had finally come... It was such a time of mixed feelings of being sad and happy at the same time. 

All the guys looked great!

Tom (Justin's friend), Joshua (Justin's brother), Jaylon (Justin's brother) Luke (Justin's friend) and Nathan (Justin's friend)
Jesse (Justin's brother) and David (Kaitlyn's brother)

Aren't they good looking?? I think soo!! :))

Everyone's ready, let the ceremony begin!!
To be continued...

Flying to PA & More...

Wedding pictures are coming up next. I just sent Joanna over to Kaitlyn's to get the rest of them. When she gets back I will go through them and get some posted for you all! While your waiting here are a few pics of our travels. :)

The sun was setting on the way to the airport on the 18th of March. Our flight flew out at 11:00 p.m. 

The boys had never flown before so they were very excited!! 

We all tried to get as much sleep as we could before we flew into Michigan. The sun was just rising as we came in to land.

Us, looking a bit out of it and Jubilee purposely frowning for the pic. 

We flew over Lake Erie after taking off and I had to shiver thinking of all that ice and water down there.

Justin flew in a few days before us.

They kept me posted with all that was happening and I couldn't wait to get back to PA with everyone! 

Joanna flew back early for the bridal shower and to help out with the wedding.

She also got to tour Washington DC and New York while she was there. 

They got to see the picture of Brother Branham with the Pillar of Fire...

...and the little pigeon Brother Branham tells the story about.

Spending time with friends.

She got in on kitchen duty. :)

We had an amazing time with everyone.

We finally arrived Thursday afternon and they had a wonderful meal cooked for us all. We all stayed with the Sangers over the wedding, including some of the wedding party and friends. There was around 30 of us.
Thank you so much for letting us all stay at your house!! It was totally a blast!  

I didn't get many pictures of the rehearsal etc.. so I stole one from here and there from Lilia. Thanks for the pictures! :)

Rehearsal went great and we all had a lot of fun setting up everything.

Afterwards we all went to a roller skating rink, which was a lot of fun!
