the back of her dress. also, her dad was under terrible circumstances and they have been working for years for him to be able to get to this wedding, but he couldn't, so uncle frederick walked her down the aisle, and when asked who gives this woman... he says: her mother, father, and i do. ohhhh it was soooooo sweet!


leigh michael, i just want to squeeze this kid!




Lea Ann and David at the wedding (cameron's rents)



the chapel (it was supposed to be an outdoor wedding, but crazy storms were blowing through jackson, ms

me and cambot. look he has on new clothes!!!
So, the saga of getting to jackson was pretty much hell. We left friday morning at 0800 expecting tons of snow (6-12''), but there was none, so we thought we were home free. Yeah right. We had delays (instead of leaving at 1120) probably about 3ish hours of them (we left dia at 3:45ish). We missed out original flight to dallas, the dia lady put us on a different one, we missed that one, and when we got off in dallas the dallas lady put us on another flight to leave at 5:50 (our flight we had missed by like 5 min). So we think we are doing great, we'll just miss the rehearsal dinner (a good ole southern fish fry), but we'll make it in time to hang out with everyone. NOPE.... we sit on the runway for about an hour waiting to take off... finally we are next in line and the pilot who had just taken off ahead of us calls and says there is hail at the end of the runway... so we think fine it will go away in a minute... NOPE... the sky to the west is seriously torano black. Yup that's right folks... we sit through a tornado on the runway in the plane. i think the plane is just gonna take off on it's own b/c all the crazy wind. 4-5 tornados touched down around the airport, so they canceled our flight and we had to de-plane. about an hour later we finally make it to the front of the line to get a room in dallas (a pretty ghetto one) and some food. we have already been traveling over 12 hours too. boo. so we get a flight for the next morning at 0745. don't worry, ill make this short and sweet... it was delayed in the end about 3 hours too. so we finally make it to jackson at 1130 and have 24 hours before we have to get back on a plane back to denver. Just so you know... it's AMERICAN AIRLINES... DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT FLY WITH THEM EVER. they screwed up our honeymoon too. anyway, the wedding was fabulous and gorgeous. all of the family was great to see, especially mima!!! She read a passage from the new testament at the wedding, and it was so sweet!
we love that family!
