Last weekend was Stef's wedding. I was super excited. Peter said I was more excited about her wedding than ours. Of course Stef was a beautiful bride. The reception was super fun. EVERYONE danced and had a great time.
I knew I was going to cry. I cried a little when she walked down the aisle and then held it together pretty well. However, after my speech was over it settled in that she was actually married and then I lost it. It was the ugly cry, not pretty.
I was pretty nervous about my speech. I didn't want to look like an idiot and embarrass Stef. To prepare for my speech I had my notecard ready and drank two glasses of wine. I think it worked. Peter was such a great husband and told me how proud he was of me and that I should go into politics. I am not so sure about that but it was nice how hard he was trying to make me feel good about it.
This was during the speeches, right before I lost it.

Doing my Matron of Honor duties. I am not sure I like the term "matron." I did fail at one task, a major one! I couldn't bustle the dress! The lady who altered the dress told me how but then when it came time I didn't know how to do it. Thankfully Krista helped me and we used a rubber band and a couple of safety pins to make it work. I hope Stef forgives me!
