Newly Weds

Mr. and Mrs. McNairn. It's official! These two beautiful people tied the knot in probably the most emotional wedding I've been at since my own. One re-do of a botched bridesmaid 'do, a last minute trip to the post office for some ponchos, and a groom that had to sweat up front for maybe two minutes that felt much longer, this beautiful day went off without a hitch. I've never seen bigger smiles or happier tears. I love my friend like my sister, I love Kelly and the amazing man that I've witnessed him become, and I love this newly married couple. I am excited to be a part of their lives that they've joined together. However...... as everyone who knows knows... it will always be Cooper to me. Although I'm sure she will be smiling a ridiculously cute smile for quite some time as she announces herself as McNairn. Kelly will probably be telling strangers "were married" Its so awesome. That's all.

2 More Weeks!

Only 14 more days until these two get hitched. "Cooper" becomes McNairn. What shall I call my friend then? O my goodness. Sharlene you will be married! A wife! A better half! I can't wait to watch you say I do to the love of your life. You two are wonderful. Here's to a happily ever after and many many little McNairn's running around! I can't wait :) Love you my friend.
