Congratulations Mrs. Birdsong

Last weekend, Tyler and I took off from our dorm duties, and headed to (among other stops) Wimberly, TX to see Kassidy and Derek get married!  The weekend was packed with family visits, good meals, and lots of driving.  On Friday afternoon, we made our way to stop #1: Allen, TX. 

We stayed with Tyler's parents on Friday night and got to treat his mom to birthday dinner at Italian Villa...that place is missed for sure!  After a wonderful breakfast of homemade blueberry pancakes, we packed up again and made our way to stop #2: Waco, TX. 

In Waco, we met up with my parents and Kayla for lunch.  Even though we didn't see each other for a very long period of time, it was still good to catch up and...let's get real...have a free meal!  After lunch, it was a quick wardrobe change and then off to stop #3: Wimberly, TX.

The reason for the trip: Kassidy and Derek's wedding.  It was beautiful.  Even though there was a last minute change of venue (inside instead of outside) you would have never even guessed because everything was perfect.  Their ceremony and reception were held at the Red Corral Ranch. It was out in the country, which made for the perfect country wedding.  Here is a picture of Tyler and I at the reception...gorgeous!

Everything about the wedding was intimate and unique, from the music, to the room, to the vows, and even to the "grooms cake pudding bar."  It was so personal, and I'm so glad that we got to celebrate with them.  Here is the beautiful bride!

Married couples!

Thank you Kassidy and Derek for inviting us to share this day with you.  I can't wait to catch up and hear how married life is treating you.  Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Birdsong!
