Blessing Shower

So...the other big event this weekend was the Blessing Shower. I had never heard of such a thing so I was very curious to see just how it would all turn out. If you haven't been to one, it consists of meeting a lot of people, eating a really nice dinner, and then having everyone offer blessings to the couple that is getting married.

Our Blessing Shower was hosted at the home of Tanya McLemore (that's her with me and Sarah in the picture) and the place was absolutely amazing. It was decorated - both inside and out - like few things I have ever seen. The dinner was wonderful and it was a great opportunity for our family to meet so many of the Wolf's closest friends. Once the dinner was over, Sarah and I sat in the middle of the room while dozens of friends and family offered their advice, wisdom, and blessing over our relationship. It was a pretty intense night and one that meant so much to the two of us. It would be hard to explain the specifics of the evening without having a video or reading the actual blessings, but we are so thankful for the encouragement and all the effort that went into the entire event.

Here are a couple more pictures from the evening.
