Happy Monday, Ms. Viv ‘Nim Fanatics!We are just five days away from Duane and Sarah’s wedding, y’all. It seemed like yesterday when Duane proposed… as a matter of fact, it was three months ago. My goodness—time sure did fly by.
Well, in any event, we have a very special blog for you today. We will hear from Sarah’s best friend and maid of honor, Melissa Leilani Roberts.
Hey, Lizzie-Girl!
Oh my God—it’s finally upon us! Your big day is coming up this Saturday, and I am like, so excited for you. I was just sitting up here at my desk, writing out what I want to say during the toast at your reception, but I don’t know what to talk about. There was that time where we had an all-girls sleepover at my mom and dad’s house, but I don’t think anyone wants to hear about that. Of course, there was the time where you, me, and Nattie got stranded one evening and we had to call your brother Howie to come get us. And then, too, there was this past July when we treated you to an all-girl weekend in Vegas. So many stories, but I don’t know which one to tell.
One thing I can definitely say with a clear conscience is this: Liz, I love you lots. You’re like a sister to me, considering that I’m an only child. I will always cherish the times we laughed, cried, got angry… I’ll especially remember how we participated in the charity baseball game against the OSW Ladies Division, right before the OSW Homecoming.
Liz, I hope I can get through this without crying, but I feel like I’m losing you. You know, they say that once you get married, life changes. You start hangin’ out with other married folks. I know that I shouldn’t be selfish, but I can’t help it. Over the years, it’s been me, you, Nattie, Candi, and most recently, Jessica. Now that you’re about to tie the knot, we’re gonna be short one angel. Nevertheless, I am glad that Duane knows what a remarkable woman he has found in you. And I’m sure you know that Duane is a good catch… oh, what am I saying—duh! Of course you know that he’s a good catch, otherwise you wouldn’t be gettin’ married this Saturday.
Congratulations, Girlfriend—and God Bless.
