Alex and Annette's Wedding Weekend!

This past weekend Johnathan and I traveled to Donalsonville, Georgia for Alex and Annette's wedding! We had so much fun, and there are pictures to prove it! We arrived Friday afternoon to Southwinds Plantation where we stayed for the weekend. It was absolutely beautiful farmland with a hunting lodge on a pond for the boys to fish and shoot skeet! Here are a few pictures of the property:

 

Saturday during the day, the wives and girlfriends of the groomsmen went to Colquitt, Georgia for the Mayhaw festival! We had no idea what to expect, but it ended up being a lot of fun for the afternoon! We all got ready and headed to the church for the ceremony. Here are some pictures of the church and the ceremony.

The reception was held at the brides home only a few miles from the church. They could not have asked for better weather and it was the perfect setting! Beautiful chandeliers hung from the trees, along with plenty of tables and lots to eat and drink!

I think this is the best picture from the night. Lauren and I are posing by the fountain, and then I accidentally spilled some of my drink on our feet, and Johnathan caught our expressions at the exact moment! Too funny!

All of the groomsmen sang "You've Lost that Lovin' Feeling" for Alex and Annette! Definitely appropriate since Alex is a fighter pilot!

The night turned into a big cake fight and then people getting thrown into the pool! Thankfully Johnathan and I were bystanders and we didn't get hit with the cake or thrown in the pool!

 

We had so much fun the entire weekend and enjoyed seeing so many of our friends! Can't wait 'til the next wedding!

Shower in Atlanta

Yesterday I had a shower thrown for me by 8 of my Mom's dear friends. They have all been playing Bridge and going to the beach for about 25 years - I hope that our group of friends will be able to say that one day! The shower was so nice, and it was so great to have so many of my close friends be able to attend! Here are a couple of pictures from the event:

A great gift from my sister! Baking pans, recipes, and a new cookbook!

First Shower!

Last month on April 25th I had my first wedding shower! It was thrown by some of my Mom's dear friends - Terry Morgan, Patti Staten, Jeanie Duvall and Marilyn Lunsford. They all worked so hard to make the shower very special! The shower was from 3-5 pm on Sunday afternoon, and I basically opened gifts the entire time! All of the women that came were so sweet and the gifts they gave are amazing! I got some great things off of my registry, but the things I received that I hadn't registered for are wonderful too! One of my favorites is a plaque that has the letter "R" engraved, with Roberts across the bottom, and it says "Est. July 10th, 2010" - how unique is that!

Here are a couple of pictures from the event!
