brooks and her catch!  

Brooks & I hung out with our favorite family, The Anderson's, a few weeks back while I was visiting back in NC.  Jana has this awesome little pond right in her backyard, so we thought we'd all go fishing (before our game of Cranium.  Girls vs. guys and guess who won??!!  Girls rule!).  The girls are old pros at this fishing thing, while this was Caden first fishing trip.  Mr. Gabe had to help him out. :)  He didn't quite like catching the fish and wanted "Nemo" back in the water as soon as he pulled him out!  It was a great night...fun with best friends!

my favorite photo!  hilarious!

Our favorite thing about Claire & Corey's wedding is the fact that every single person that was there to celebrate their union, was someone that had special meaning in their lives.  Because of that, everyone wanted to have a great time celebrating the beginning of Claire & Corey's life together!  This reception was a BLAST!!  We had a feeling it would be fun after spending some time with the special couple over these last few months.  You can just tell how much they love one another, but how playful they are with each other as well.  As is evident by the cake cutting!! :)

not-so-formals!

we were totally IN LOVE with the bridesmaids shoes.  i need a pair for myself! :)



they are so in love...


wedding rings!

After the ceremony, we took some time before the reception to get some shots of the FUN wedding party and of Claire & Corey.  Haymount Methodist is such a beautiful church with some really amazing stone archways, so we felt we needed to take advantage!  Claire & Corey's wedding party was so great and up for anything we asked them to do!  Wait to see the reception pics... :)

details...

notice the penny taped in claire's shoe? :)

these stained glass windows were dedicated in memory of claire's grandmother
Just wanted to share some details from Claire & Corey's wedding this past weekend.  Claire's dress was BEAUTIFUL!  And, she looked absolutely stunning in it.  Corey is one lucky guy. :)  Stay tuned for pics from the reception the next couple of days...it was one great party!
