Wedding Adventures

On December 27, 2008 I was able to be the Maid of Honor in one of my best friend's wedding. It was in Enterprise, AL, which has this awesomely funny boll weevil statue that somehow had me mesmerized. Anyway, I was so glad that my friend is happy now, I didn't mind the long drive to the wedding.

Well... anyone who knows me will tell you that I am eager to get married. I always get emotional at weddings because I'm happy for the couple and at the same time lamenting my lack of a love life. Boo hoo.

So when it came time to catch the bouquet, I naturally ran to the front of the croud of single girls to get my chance. Everyone knows that the person who catches the bouquet is supposed to be the one who gets married next. I knew the little girl standing next to me would not be able to stand up to me and my "wrecking ball" hips. My friend throws her bouquet, it hits the ceiling and falls to the ground. Ready, set, go... I end up on the floor with the little girl in a mad dash for the flowers.

Thank goodness I was the victorious one, because it would be rather depressing to have that little 6 year old girl get married before me. The bad part... I think I broke my toe when I dove for the flowers. Ouch.
