Another One Bites the Dust...

...this past Saturday, Matt's good buddy Ben got married!!! The wedding was in Clayton at La Chateau. Here is the happy couple:

Here is another happy couple, please disregard my husband's eyes that are shut. He refused to take another picture after this one.
"Look man, we have super powers with these rings!"

The wedding was very small but it was SO MUCH FUN!!! Matt and I didn't think we'd know any one there, and we really didn't but we ended up having the BEST time!!! Here are just a couple stories from the night...

*The ring bearer walked half way down the aisle then stopped, waited about a minute then walked up to Ben. Then the female pastor told him to go back to his dad so he sprinted back down the aisle to his dad where he asked for everyone to hear, "Can we go home now?"

*The female pastor started the ceremony by saying, "This is when we typically ask who gives this woman away but in today's world, women have the right to make up their own mind so we aren't going to ask that..." Nothing like women's lib to start off a wedding!

*They had the BEST cake!!! Super moist, the icing tasted homemade and the best part...there was this little chocolate ball beside the cake which I thought was like a truffle or something, oh no, it was like the hard shell chocolate over a scoop of ice cream and we all know how much I LOVE ICE CREAM!!! I was going to ask Matt if I could have his for half my cake but his was gone by the time I turned to him. Guess he liked it too.

Thanks for letting us share in your day Missey and Ben! I hope you two have a great time in Mexico this week!!!
