Wow now I FINALLY get to blog about stuff! Been quite a good day but in fact it has been a week since the wedding so I have yet to talk about it now. I must say that I am very Blessed beyond all measure to have some great friends at Messiah College. I am also very happy that I Finally got to go to a wedding at last. It has been a whole decade since I last went to a wedding. At that time I was only 12 years old so I barely understood anything at that time other than "You may now kiss the bride!" I remember then after the ceremony my parents dropped me back at home and then headed to the reception to celebrate with the friends. I only wished I knew and understood weddings back then. But I am happy I understand the weddings now at present day.

May 23 was the day I traveled from New Jersey to Lancaster County, PA for the wedding. It was an awesome drive as I was exploring new places. But something I didn't think would happen happened. When I was still in Reading my GPS died on me and I did not know where to go next. I had to exit the highway and get to a nearby hotel to access a computer. I got off to a Holiday Inn Express and Suites and the hotel manager allowed me to use the computer in which I used Google Maps to print the directions out. It was printed out and I felt more confident driving the rest of the way to Mount Joy, PA which was my destination. I drove and exit and finally started to flash some pictures of the area. It was Beautiful and New to me! I stopped and checked out some cars but also took pictures of the surroundings and had a great time. Perhaps I may go into Photography. We shall see. There were also stores where I stopped at and bought things for my house and other needs such as presents. I later arrived at Flick's house and got to reunite with the Awesome Crew alongside meeting new friends:)! It felt great even though it was night time and I had a long day.

May 24 was the Real Deal where in fact it was WEDDING DAY! The day 6 couples including Alex and Molly Flick got married. That morning we got breakfast from Sheetz together and after that we would all get ready separately. While Flick, Preston, Bri, and Dan went to the Farm I went to meetup with a friend to eat. After that I drove over to the barn about an hour before the ceremony even started and got to talk to some friends. It was a small spot but it was a Great Day. God sure answered the prayers for good weather and the Wedding started off Very well! The Pastor was awesome and said some great things as we all sat there laughing and listening. The ceremony itself lasted about 35-40 minutes and afterwards we waited around eating snacks until reception hour. The reception lasted from about 4:30 to 8:30. The menu was Mac and Cheese, Pork, Brisket, Buns, and Potato Salad. The drinks were lemonade and of course CHAMPAGNE! There wasn't that much dancing but I sure got to enjoy the outside weather and the lawn games. Then the rain was slowly coming down at about 8:30 when we were all preparing to leave. Around that time was also when my back started to wear out on me which was not good. I quickly drove to a store to buy some medicine and also bought a treat and the headed back to the house where I was then lying down on the couch with a heating pad. Good thing I stayed another night! But seriously thanks to Flick's parents, aunt, uncle, and brother and Sophie for helping me that night!

May 25 was the day I would leave Lancaster was bittersweet. My back was a bit better that morning but not fully recovered yet. I prayed that God was gonna protect me as I drove. That same morning I saw Flick and Molly as they came to open there presents. It was good to see them all newly wed for a day. They left to go see Molly's family and afterwards I packed and began my long drive home. Seriously I felt that I had a GREAT weekend Ever! It will always be memorable. I seriously want to Thank the Flick's, Preston, Bri, Dan, Sophie, Molly, and many others for helping me out that weekend. All of you are Awesome! Flick and Molly I wish you many awesome years to come! Have a Great one on your Honeymoon!
