Wedding bells...

Today was our good friends Erik Stephens & Stacey Bauer's wedding. We had a great time and I thought I would share with all of you! Congrats Erik & Stacey...we are so happy for you guys! :)

Here we go! The wedding was in Pilot Mountain at a really cute place called Rosa Lee Manor. I wish I would've taken a couple of pictures of the outside..it was beautiful!

The bride was absolutely beautiful, of course!

The groomsmen were on our side...so I didn't get a good shot of the pretty ladies...although I don't think we know any of them anyways.

My camera was taking horrible pictures from afar...but I thought this moment was pretty sweet!

The happy couple!

awww...we just love them. They make a great couple! <3

The place was decorated so cute! I loved all of the details...and I know Stacey worked very hard on all of these little touches. You did a great job Stacey...and I know you are happy that it's over. :)

These were at each setting...pretty sweet!

ALL VEGAN!!!! WOO HOO!!! :)

The wedding party...

First dance...

Crazy boys...

Sparkling Grape Juice...the only way to go!

The best vegan cake I have ever tasted...

Gracie, breaking it down...

Jai, standing back in corner and watching all of the ladies break it down...haha. Isn't it funny how women always dance with one arm in the air?! So strange...

Haha! Here is Jai trying to figure out if someone was in there or not. It was pretty cute!

Maggie, cherry pies...and fireworks!

This is Maggie...the newest member of our family. She is a pug that we rescued from Pug Rescue of N.C. She is wonderful and is the sweetest lap dog! She is 6 years old, and seems to be enjoying us as well. :)

For the 4th of July..we were invited to my brother and his family's house for dinner and fireworks! I decided to make a cherry pie (first time ever)...and below is the result. Everyone said it tasted great! Paul has already asked me to make another so I guess that's a good sign! :)

We had a great time! I wish I wouldve taken more pictures though. I totally forgot about it until we were outside for fireworks. We had to leave early because Paul works 3rd shift and had to go..but we did get to enjoy 20 min or so of them.

(The light on Gracie's head is glasses that light up and blink)

Me (with my ghostly complexion), Gracie, and Miss Mary Catherine (my niece). :)

Jai, enjoying the show!

This is the only halfway decent shot I got of the fireworks. :( The camera was acting up and taking forever to recharge the flash. Oh well...I'm sure you all saw some nice ones!
