0 Life Outside the Construction Site: My Best Friend(s) Wedding(s)
>> Monday, July 30, 2012
2012 has definitely been the year of the bridesmaid for me. Four of my best friends made their way down the aisle and into the arms of four very lucky guys, and I was primped, polished and watching each and every step with a big smile and eyes full of tears.
With the last wedding of the summer coming to a close this past weekend, a part of me is excited to get back to weekends of nothingness—not to mention my fingernails are dying for a break from manicures and itching to go back to their old paint-covered ways—but the biggest part of me is so thankful for the past seven months that I’ve had to spend time with old friends who live entirely too far away.
Not to mention, from the second the boyfriend and I met, he has been hauled to all corners of the state for wedding parties, wedding showers, rehearsal dinners and weddings. Good thing he can appreciate a good wedding band. What a trooper.
