.: life on the big screen almost…

June 8th, 2007 by Amanda Weaver

We are almost the real life version of this not-so-great movie. This Weaver Bunch made it to one funeral and three weddings in three weeks. How can this be? Well, let me tell you how it went down.

It seems like years ago that we landed in Ontario, California (5/16). But I am pretty sure it actually happened. It was not easy to enter the home where my Grandma had so graciously hosted many of our family gatherings, and not see her there. However, it was therapeutic to see family I had not seen in over three years. I have missed my cousins, aunts, uncles, and of course my Mom aka Nana, Brother and Sister (Johanna). I had forgotten how wonderful California can be. I am glad that I don’t live there anymore, but I always love visiting. I hope that Ryland will grow up with great memories of California.

The next leg of our trip led us through Vegas and onto KCMo (5/23 where we had to get a rental car to get to our next stopping point, OKC (5/24). We were in OKC so Ryan could fulfill the first of his Best Man duties in the wedding of Aaron and Serena Nickles (5/26). After the wedding we headed to Honey Grove where we spent t our next week with Pops and Lolly (Kevin and Chris Weaver).

We were able to visit those at BBC (5/27). I really enjoyed getting to sing with Kati, Callie, and Chris. That Sunday afternoon Ryan officiated and I sang in the wedding of Johnny and Windy Whitehead (5/27). It was awesome to be a part of their wedding. We had prayed for their marriage for a couple of years.

The next weekend Ryan was the Best-Man in his cousin Adams Wedding(6/2). It was a beautiful day that reflected the personalities of both Adam and Lori. We flew home that Sunday(6/3). One of our students Micah Melton drove in the rain from Salisbury to pick us up at BWI. For that we are extremely thankful. 

It is great to be home… no I mean it is GRRRReat!!! We really enjoyed seeing family, but next year I think we’ll take a vacation (hehehehehe).

This coming Saturday (6/9) I will be singing in the fourth wedding. This officially makes us the “real life version” of Four Weddings and a Funeral. Yes, I know it’s a little crazy, but it’s a great honor to be a part of the weddings of those we love.  

*Thanks to all of you who were patient with our schedule. We would have liked to have spent more time with each of you. If you can find the time we would love for you to come see us… and the many attractions the Eastern shore has to offer.

    I am glad to see that you made it home safely. “Vacations” are nice, to go and see people, see things you haven’t seen, and get to do something out of the everyday. But, it is always good to be home. Thanks for the “Four Weddings and A Funeral” comparison, I haven’t seen that movie but I got a good laugh out of this anyway. Love ya’ll

    I love your humor! (Yes, Amanada, YOU ARE FUNNY!!!) I am glad you are enjoying being home.

    I thank God for the relationships that have been refined and healed during this last month.

    Forever……….
