What a weekend! The wedding was beautiful, and it was great to hang out with old friends. It didn't seem like almost 4 years had passed since i had seen some of the people! I've created a link to some of the wedding pictures we took over the weekend. I hope to get some more from others who took pictures of different events. Check out the link on the left or here for those pictures. It should be the same address as this, with "tompkinswedding" in place of my name.
Thursday, Brent picked me up after work and we drove to Salisbury, NC to stay the evening. We stopped off at Cracker Barrel for dinner...SO GOOD! Then, Friday morning, we left to meet Alan at Furman for lunch. STICKEY FINGERS!!!! yes! After that, it was off to Kelly's parents house in Lawrenceville. Everyone was there getting ready. So much fun! We piled in our cars and made it to the rehearsal at the church for a couple of practice runs. Then, off to Journey's End for the dinner. Good stuff! We had the chance to see Kelly and Josh's new house after the dinner. It is so nice....we're envious!
The next day (wedding day), we woke up to Mrs. Lindsay cooking us bacon and french toast for breakfast! What a sweet lady! It was delicious. Kelly's cousin, Sonia, came over and worked on hair before we left for the church to finish getting ready. We were all relieved to see that our dresses fit! whew! Pictures were fun, then it was back to the bridal room to stuff our faces with snacks (only because the dresses were on and fitting!) All the bridesmaids had a lot of fun getting to know one another throughout the weekend.
The wedding was beautiful. It was over before we knew it! More pictures, then off to the reception. The food was wonderful....and not to mention the chocolate fondue fountain! It was so much fun to watch all the dancing. After Mr. and Mrs. Tompkins left, we all returned to the Lindsay house. Sunday morning, it was time to say goodbye...one group at a time. I'm sure Mr. and Mrs. Lindsay are glad to have a bit of peace and quiet now! Today is the day that Josh and Kelly leave for their honeymoon in Jamaica.
It was a great weekend. We're glad to be home, though. It was a long drive yesterday. It helps that daylight savings gave us an hour longer of light! Hope everyone else had a wonderful weekend, as well! Love to hear from ya!

I love those bridesmaids dresses. You can totally wear that again. My sister's bridesmaids dresses are similar, so I'm excited!
I want to learn more about this seminary in Richmond. I see that it has a lot of women professors and one is even ordained in PCUSA or PCA. Is it in line with the Southern Baptist Convention? Hope you are doing well.
