Wedding Bells

Both of the kids were in a wedding recently. It was our first experience as a flower girl and ring bearer and I must say that the kids loved it and did an excellent job. Emery was hilarious going down the isle. She stopped and posed for every person that had their phone out to take a photo. Needless to say it took her quite some time to make it down the isle. So much so that the sound guy had to loop the music because the song ended before she was done. Ha! She absolutely loved the attention and getting to wear a "wedding dress." 

The groom is the son of my friend Xu (Joy). I read the Bible with Joy on Wednesday nights to help her improve her English. She is originally from China. I have just loved getting to know her and her sweet family over the past few years and was honored that they asked Case and Emery to be a part of their special day. 

Most of the guests had never attended a traditional American Christian wedding before and many of them couldn't speak English. It was so neat to get to be a part of something so unique. The wedding was beautiful and the reception was one of the nicest I've ever attended. 

Congratulations,  Lu and Xiao! We wish you many years of happiness together!
