going to the chapel

this has been an extremely fun weekend of celebration and being around friends i love and haven't spent time with in a while. i even got to see some friends i haven't seen in years. my friend meredith got married last night- and what a party it was. the photographer said he'd never been to a better wedding. it really was perfect, from start to finish, including the days leading up. the weather was beautiful, the festivities were lighthearted with lots of laughing and memories (meredith evokes both), and the wedding itself was i think exactly the way God wanted it-focused on him and a true testament to real love. i plan on putting some pics up, but i can't seem to find the cord that connects my camera to my computer. so maybe next time.

i think another great thing about this weekend was that it really was a celebration. meredith was diagnosed with colon cancer three weeks ago and it's very advanced. she began chemo two weeks ago and starts back this week with aggressive treatments. the weekend had no underlying "meredith's sick" feel to it, which i am so thankful for. i think probably partly because when you're around her you forget she's sick. she's just very meredith.

so pray for mere and justin as they begin the exciting time of their life together, and for mere's miraculous healing.
