Return to St. Andrew

Yesterday, I had lunch with a friend in Plano. After we finished, since I was just down the street, I decided to drive over to St. Andrew. I hadn't been there since the wedding, although I had thought about going over there several times.

I opened the door to the sanctuary, turned the lights on, and slowly walked in. The sanctuary was completely empty and silent. I walked down to the front and turned around. I recalled the feelings that I had walking in, as well as what I was feeling like when we stood at the altar. I remember seeing everyone as we turned around to be announced as husband & wife and exit the church.

I also went in the bride's room and parlor. I could see myself getting dressed, talking to different people, and anticipating the big event. I remembered being totally ready, and standing in front of the five-way mirror. I looked like a bride! I felt so beautiful and was really excited about being married to David.

Now, seven months later, I still feel excited about being married to David! I'm glad I decided to visit the church. It brought back some great memories and left a smile on my face the rest of the day.
