Two Days and Counting

There I was, two days before my wedding and hardly stressed. My mom had come the day before to help Wes and I finalize buying the things left for the big day. There wasn't much left, thank goodness. But we did need to pick up one of my great friends and bridesmaids, Rebekah, from the St. Louis airport. So the three of us headed for a five hour round trip to the Arch City. When we got back, my dear friend and Matron of Honour, Sarah, had arrived and the fun was just beginning. Not too long after, Wes' parents and nephew Christian pulled up to the house. Chaos continued. This was the first time my mom had met any of Wes' family, and they all embraced one another with warmth, just as family should. My mom, Sarah, Rebekah and I proceeded to make some delicious spaghetti, spinach dip, and garlic bread. We all ate, enjoyed the company, and opened some of the presents my future parents-in-law brought. They gave us this amazing Tiffany lamp that is now in our bedroom. Super cool and very "Gilmore Girls, Dragon Fly Inn." By 9pm, we were all beat. Wes went back to the hotel with his parents, my mom took our spare bedroom, Sarah our specious master bedroom, and Rebekah and I slept on our two couches. It was like a slumber party. Just one last full day before I became Mrs. Wesley Wilson! I couldn't wait...nor could I sleep.
