weekend pictures

The weekend went very well, and although I am tired.. it was worth it!
Instead of writing lots of words, I'll just share a bunch of pictures. I am proud to say that I was able to walk down the isle without a crutch, just as I had wished. I ended up using one half-way through the ceremony to lean on and walk back down the isle with. I pushed myself and it was worth it. For the first half of the ceremony I was sad that I "couldn't" dance with all of my friends, but after a little while I thought "I'll just try to slow dance. Nothing too crazy, just to see if I'm safe or able to". Well, I ended up dancing for hours straight (to fast songs) and had an absolute blast! I guess fear needs to be tested some times, to see how far we can go. I would've missed out on some great memories, if I hadn't had stepped out and tried, even though I was scared for my safety and well-being of my hip. My best friend said "I am SO happy to see you out here dancing!", and.. I was too. =)

This afternoon we went to the Cardinals for a cook-out. I didn't take any pictures, but my dad took this picture of me & Sophie. I love it!
