Three cheers for the happy couple!
Matt’s dad re-proposed to his bride-to-be, Cheryl, tonight, and it was so sweet. And it’s been so nice to gather with both families for this occasion! I love family reunions.
We gathered for cocktails at 5PM before we headed out to dinner
I had mostly seltzer with a splash of bourbon for flavor!
My darling cousins make me want to have kids ASAP 🙂
These two are totally amazing kids!
Mark and Cheryl are some of the biggest dog lovers we know. One of 5 dogs, Senora, is 17 years old..
We nibbled on cheese + fruit for appetizers
And then headed to dinner
Andrew gave me an ear lickin’!
Inside the club, we were seated at the most beautiful table
The red wine was excellent
And I definitely had more than my body likes to receive!
We enjoyed bread and crackers with whipped pimento cheese
And a spinach salad with bleu cheese to start
Our entree was Surf + Turf, plus asparagus + taters, precious. I ate more surf than turf 🙂
The dessert was consumed in its entirety. Heavenly cheesecake!
And Uncle David ended the night toasty
I absolutely love weddings when the rehearsal dinner is a blast – because it means we still have the wedding to look forward to! Until then, sleep beckons!
Petey sez goodnight!!!

Pee Wee is kind of scary!!! 🙁

I agree.
kate says
I cant stop laughing. I love Petey!
Jessica @ The Process of Healing says
In reference to your last post, that is SO BIZZARE to see those pictures because I live in Spartanburg, that’s my downtown!!! Love it 🙂 Our downtown is small but it’s growing. Spartanburg is really small but it’s a nice town. And you had PERFECT weather today!
Chelsea @ Strawberry Sweat says
The pictures of your day/night are gorgeous! I am truly jealous that you and Matt (who I am guessing is the photographer when you are in the picture) have practically mastered the in-the-moment shots. Looks like it was an awesome night!

My husband re-proposed to me a short while before we got married. It was very sweet.
The last picture = brilliant. I actually laughed out loud (as opposed to the pseudo ‘lol’ 😉
