Leigh's Wedding August 4th

Leigh got married on August 4^th. It was beautiful and I am very proud to be her sister. In fact I learned a very important lesson. Leigh had fallen in love with a bridesmaid dress that didn’t have sleeves. When we ordered it, it looked like it had some sleeve to it and we agreed that maybe we could alter it somehow. I tried it on for her and long story short it wasn’t enough sleeve for me. We ended up in a huge fight because I needed sleeves and they didn’t understand. We screamed and yelled because I wasn’t going to roll my garments for my sister. Well I prayed and prayed about how to handle the whole situation and I talked to my sister again and again without yelling. We came to the conclusion to try to put some kind of sleeve on it, so the next time I was in bama I took my dress to have it altered. I picked my dress up a week before the wedding and the sleeves her hideous. You could still see my garments underneath and it was just plane ugly!!! Leigh came over to help me make her fans for the reception and she saw it. I can’t even describe her face. I told her not to worry about it. I called my other sister Arielle and asked what she was going to do about it and we came up together that we were going to just tuck our garments. The day went by fast and at the end of it all I was just very thankful that it was over.

Today (middle of September) I realized something. There wheren't a lot of pictures taken of bridesmaids. Leigh had complained about it and it should have clicked with me then but it didn’t. I am glad that there wasn’t a lot of pictures because I felt bad enough as it was I didn’t want to remember the decision I had to make that day.
