FFIL AND FMIL

My father in law, Max, and I joke all the time about how he is my favorite father in law! I know he is my only one that I will ever have, but I got REALLY lucky having such a wondeful set of in-laws!

So I have to publicly confess I made A BIG uh-oh. I am the WORST daughter in law it may seem! I FORGOT their wedding anniversary! Yes, it was on my best friends wedding day, Jess, but there is NO excuse! I make this public confession and hope they had a WONDERFUL anniversary, especially getting to witness another couple start their marriage. Of all times to miss theirs, the first time they have an anniversary that first year I have married their son and here I messed up royally. I hate that I missed it and hope to make it up to them August 28th next year!

I am so thankful to Max and Becky for how great they are to Ryan and me. They are so loving, caring, generous, thoughtful...the list goes on and on. I could not ask for a better set of 2nd parents! We love their visits to Huntsville, our visits to see them, and any emails or phone conversations we can get! I do not tell them often enough how thank we are for them and to have them in our lives! I love Max's text messages, poems on special events, prayers before dinner, funny stories, help with Life insurance, and especially his love for his boys. I love Becky's constant thoughtfulness, random phone calls, gift wrap surplus, great meals, encouragement, and especially her love for her boys. Ryan and I have learned so much from their marriage and thank them for the guidance and impact they have made on our own marriage! We love you mom, dad, Max and Becky! Cheers to many more anniversaries to you that I DONT FORGET!

Best Friend's Wedding!

Jessica, my best friend from high school and college, got married a few weeks ago to HER Ryan as we call it :) It was one of the most fun wedding weekends we have ever been to:

We started off on Thursday night with a wedding party softball game! So fun for all!
Friday was the bridesmaids lunch at The Club and the Rehearsal dinner in Selma at Selma Country Club.

Saturday we had a blast all day sharing this special moment with Jess at her family farm. She was the most beautiful bride I have ever seen!

Here is the Just Married Sign I made of horsehoes, fabric, wood, barb wire, sunflowers, and lights. Thanks to my Huntsville friend Cortney for her creativity and help!

I am so honored to have been a part of her special day! I love you Mrs. Sciacca!

Fun Labor Day Weekend

We had a great Labor Day weekend! Ryan and I relaxed and enjoyed time together Friday night. He was like a kid in a candy store for football to start. Saturday we had some friends over for the game! Thankfully Auburn won! War Eagle!
Michael and Alison supported their teams UGA
(atleast its SEC) and Texas Tech (atleast they have Coach Tubs)
We went off to our new Huntsville friends lake house to spend the rest of the weekend. We had a great Wydner Harbuck weekend with them and are so thankful for our new friends! Their families lake house was AMAZING and we felt like royalty! Here is a picture of Ryan and our friend Alison coming down off the tram to get to the dock. You have to look really close to the far right to see them, but they are there waving! :)

Thanks Wydner's for a fun weekend! We look forward to many more Huntsville memories! Hope you all had a fun and safe Labor Day!
