When it comes to life I've got the best tribe ever. I have wonderful parents, grandparents, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends ever. I'm not just saying that y'all. They all traveled from different states to attend our wedding last September in Florida. Every single person came from another state to watch us become a family of three and celebrate with us. If that's not love then I don't know what is.
My family put on the reception all by themselves. Food and decorations beyond my biggest dreams. My in-laws gave us our dream rehearsal dinner at our favorite restaurant in Panama City. My Sister in Law and Aunt were my bridesmaids, My cousin was my flower girl. My hubby's best friend and our son were the groomsmen. My sweet friend Crystal did my hair and make up. It was truly the best day of my life. The memories we made, not just at the wedding but through out life, are some of the best memories I have. I carry them so near to my heart.
They say your vibe attracts your tribe but i'm not sure what vibe i'm putting out because my tribe of people are so much more than I deserve. I'd give anything in the world to be back at the beach, surrounded by every single one of you (and the ones who couldn't make it, too). This time we'd be celebrating all of you and your love for me and my family.
Come on and join in this super fun link up with one of my blogger besties, Sarah from Sarah Emily Blogs and Ashley from Girl Talk.
This link up is such a fun way to start the week off.

Fun. We had lots of family travel for our wedding 10 years ago and it really makes you appreciate family when they make a big effort. Now I need to reciprocate with some cousins weddings coming up. :-)
ReplyDeleteIt really is the best when you have people travel for you. It really does make you see how blessed you are. I hope you have a ton of fun at your cousin's up coming wedding! It's a win win. Vacation and a wedding, which are two of the best things ever!
DeleteThis looks like fun. I'll have to try it out. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
DeleteI love this! we too had a lot of out of state guests for our wedding. It is kind of surreal to see how many people show up on such an important day!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sweets. It really does make you see how blessed you are when people travel out of state for you. None of us live in Florida so everyone traveled from Georgia to Florida. My Aunt & Uncle even drove from Illinois to Georgia then Georgia to Florida for us. We are definitely blessed!
DeleteWhat a wonderful, generous family! I love getting together with my "tribe" and can't wait to move back closer to them.
ReplyDeleteThank You! My family is hugely generous and such a blessing to us. They are the reason we won't move out of the county we're in now.
DeleteWhat a great post-thanks for sharing your tribe with us!
ReplyDeleteYou're so welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
DeleteIt's always great to have a tribe! It seems like you have an amazing tribe backing you up! That's always a great thing!
ReplyDeleteI remember reading about them in your wedding post, what a beautiful tribe you have got there! Such a loving family.
