winter wedding

no, i am not confused about the time of year - one of our friends from the gt bsu, mike winter, got married yesterday in black mountain, nc. we met his bride danni for the first time, and she was absolutely beautiful!
it was a charming ceremony at a rustic little cottage in the mountains called the wild hare. we enjoyed drinking his grandmother's sweet tea and her grandmother's "back porch lemonade" out of mason jars. ("back porch lemonade" has a little orange juice and crushed mint added - delicious!)
our friends justin & linda (to the right of us in the picture below) stayed with us last night on their way back to atlanta. they just celebrated their first wedding anniversary this weekend in asheville, which is where we spent ours last fall. we really enjoyed getting to see them! jordan & emily (to the left of us) are getting married in july, so we're looking forward to their wedding. we have quite a few weddings again this year (6 or 7, i think). good thing i enjoy wedding season like chris enjoys football season! here's mike & danni's getaway vehicle (and, incidentally, our car in the background). on the front porch of the wild hare, they had an easel set up with paint & brushes so guests could paint the view of the mountains - danni said they were going to display the finished product in their home! you can see my contribution of three little flowers to the left:
