Wedding Weekend

Matthew's cousin, John Warren, got married in Greenville, South Caroline on March 28th. After a lot of thought, we decided to leave the kids at home and go on our own. Christian's soccer team was in a soccer tournament, so it worked out well for him to stay. He was able to stay with some friends of ours on the soccer team and not have to miss the tournament. The girls stayed with our friends, the Locke's and were able to "go along with the flow" of a very busy weekend for them, but they had fun.
We enjoyed the 6 hour trip in the car without interruptions - that's very unusual. We were able to attend the rehearsal dinner and got to sit at the table with the bridesmaids and their dates. What a nice bunch of young people (and I do mean young.....which meant we were the old farts for sure!)
We had some free time on Saturday and then enjoyed the beautiful wedding at First Presbyterian in Greenville followed by a great reception at the Upcountry History Museum. We had a lot of fun with the Warren's and enjoyed the short break from life at home. Here are some pictures we took.
