In continuation of our wedding week celebration, I wanted to share some of my favorite moments with you from the week leading up to our wedding.

I was told repeatedly that the week before our wedding would be full of fun, love and laughter. After living through it, I must agree. There were countless moments of joy and love that completely overwhelmed us. To be honest, we still feel it.

One of my favorite things about that week was the arrival of my sister, brother and perfect little nephew from Arizona. I'm certain that many of you do not know that the last time I saw them was July of 2013 when Brayden was just a month old (My brother-in-law is a Border Patrol Agent in Arizona). The excitement that we all felt in anticipation of their arrival was uncontainable. On the day we were reunited, my father waited on the front step to have his own private greeting as my mother and I waited anxiously by the window. When we saw them, it was as if all was right with the world.

So please allow me to share a few shots during the busyness of that week of the afternoon with my nephew (And the impromptu beach trip I went on with the youth group of my church- much needed!).
