Jaden and Fisher have been a tad…”hyper” this past week, to be completely understated. I could feel my resolve to be patient and understanding slipping which each passing day. It’s not that they’ve been bad, per se, it’s just that they’ve had excesive amounts of energy and a bad case of selective hearing.
All that said, I was relieved to have a wedding to go to this past Saturday. For starters, I love weddings. I used to not really care about them until I had the kids. Something about child birth alters your emotional settings. Now I can’t get enough of weddings, babies and any other stereotypical girly event. Secondly, it was the wedding of a highschool friend which I adore. She is one of the sweetest girls I know and I couldn’t be happier for her. Thirdly, it was at Gin Creek, which is breathtakingly beautiful.
Saturday finally rolled around and Jordan and I were eager to make the drive to the wedding, child-free. Ah, this blissful silence. *laugh* I love parenthood, but sometimes it’s nice to have a few hours to yourself. Plus, Jaden and Fisher were going to be staying with my cousin, Demi, and they couldn’t wait to get to her house. To say that they love her is an understatement. They couldn’t hardly sit still from all the excitement.
Soon we were on our way, winding through the back roads of Southwest Georgia and praying that we wouldn’t get lost. Thankfully, we made it to the wedding on time…even though Google Maps tried it’s best to make that impossible. Seriously, Google, what were you thinking? Anyhoo, the wedding was amazing. The bride, groom and attendants were gorgeous. It was the best outdoor wedding I’ve been to. Not too long and completely intimate. Le sigh. I feel all fuzzy inside just thinking about it. *wink*
