On Thanksgiving Day, we traveled from Dunn, NC to Washington, GA to celebrate the wedding of Jeffery and Alyssa. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving meal with the Stewart family when we arrived. It was so good to see everyone again! Gail, Alyssa's mom, is such a special friend to me. We've been friends for 7 years, I taught Alyssa in youth choir. Yes, I'm old! On Friday, we spent the day with Gail and Tim getting ready for the wedding. Allen was performing the ceremony, so he met with Alyssa and Jeffery for awhile. It was such a fun day! That evening was the rehearsal and dinner hosted by the Roth family. On Saturday, we spent the morning at the church getting ready. Unfortunately, Alyssa woke up very sick. It was so heartbreaking, but she was determined to get married. Special preparations were made for her, just in case. Allen shortened the service as much as possible. Even with the illness, it was a beautiful wedding and Alyssa looked beautiful. The reception was nice, Alyssa and Jeffery did all they had to do right away so that Alyssa could sit down. We saw many people from the area that we hadn't seen in so long. I just wish we could've stayed a little longer. We are thrilled for Alyssa and Jeffery and even more excited because they have made their home in Salisbury, NC. I should get to see Gail more than once a year, I hope. Anyway, Congrats Alyssa and Jeffery!
