A Haitian wedding...oh my!!

I am so thankful to have participated in a Haitian wedding!! I never thought I would be able to experience the joy, excitement, flow of cheesy music, a crowd up at the front for a kiss, OR my favorite a "Total Hottie" balloon. It was AWESOME!!!! (to say the least) I wish I had my pictures ready, but sadly I don't. They will come and you shall see the awesomeness of it all!! The bridal party walked...no danced down the aisle. Haha, I love it!! AND I forgot, when we were leaving to go to the reception I jumped in the back of one of our green trucks. I didn't even realize that I would be sitting, no hanging on to the back of the truck...at night...in Haiti. [Whoa!! Fireworks are going off as I type this...yikes :)] Anyways the ride to the reception was pretty sweet. Nothing like being in the back of a truck with 10 other people on a bumpy road. The party was rockin' with tunes and we waited for the bridal party to arrive...I mean dance in. Oh goodness...it was amazing!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!! And to all a good night ;)

Linus: "And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, 'Fear not: for behold, I bring unto you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the City of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.' And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God, and saying, 'Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.'"

Linus: That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.
