A Very Special Visit to South Carolina

We took a once in a lifetime trip to South Carolina the week before Thanksgiving. It was Curtis' parents' 50th Wedding Anniversary. But, it wasn't just a party, it was a full fledged BEAUTIFUL wedding where they renewed their vows. The 6 kids (Curtis and his siblings) paid for every ounce of it. Deborah (his sister) did the majority of the planning. His brother, Virgil, who is a minister, "married" them and his eldest brother, Mark, walked his momma down the aisle. Curtis was a groomsmen, I was a bridesmaid and Bella was a flower girl. It was such a joyous occasion and we were truly blessed to be able to join the festivities during this time of year.

Our trip there wasn't the highlight as we missed our connecting flight in Washington Dulles. So, here we are wasting 5 hours until the next flight to SC. The game: Decorate daddy's hat with stickers. That only killed about 10 minutes, but I thought I man looked hot.

The two flower girls. If you are a follower of my blog, you have seen photos of RaMya. She is one day older than Bella. Bella's grandma has watched her since she was a baby. So they were the two special ones who got to be flower girls.

Bella stayed as close to the cousins as possible. She wanted to be with the big kids.

Cinderella lost her shoe so her Prince Charming helped find it.

Mommy and the cutest flower girl ever!

Bella was a dancing machine. She spent 85% of the reception on the dance floor.
