Kaitlyn and Brent's Wedding!
v
I am finally posting the largest post that this blog has ever seen! I was busy with work the past few days and our Internet was not cooperating, hence the delay.
v
Quick disclaimer: If you suffer from red blurry eyes, cramped neck, tired mouse scroll finger, or fall asleep at the wheel..er...keyboard due to the length of this post...blame Elizabeth! She claims that people want to see LOTS of pictures and she tried to get me to post 100 of them!! I limited it down to a meager 60 so that we wouldn't have to insert an intermission for our blog readers.
All that to say, let us know what you think...too many? too little? just right? or you don't really care? All I know is that this post sets a new record for time waiting for pictures to load....slooooowly, slooowly, sloooooooooowly. (You don't think I am impatient, do you?) :o)
v
Anyway, the wedding was wonderful. The Lord blessed in so many ways and as our pastor expressed it the next day, there was a very free spirit at that wedding. There were lots of laughs, lots of tears and thousands of memories made.
v
We thank God for both Brent and Kaitlyn and His divine plan for their lives. We pray that they will enjoy a long and happy marriage together, serving the King of kings, the Lord Jesus Christ!
What a beautiful day it was! Praise the Lord!

Special thanks to the photographers below for all the pics on this post:

Mike was the official photographer. None of the pictures on this blog are his. I am sure his will blow every one of these pics out of the water and then some! He did an excellent job capturing every special moment of the day.


Cousin Megan

Little Bro. Luke manned my camera...


Aaron Gellos gave free photography lessons in between snapping pics...


Aunt Rhonda and Mom Gellos both got some excellent pictures as well.


Finally over, we cleaned up, and headed home exhausted...

Who knew that weddings required so much planning and labor? I guess we do now! :o)

Here are some pics of the rehearsal evening at church. Wedding pictures to follow. (Hopefully this evening.)
