for those of you who love Jeremy Annillo...

Daniel and I went to Seattle this weekend for Daniel to stand beside Jeremy as a groomsman in his wedding. Jeremy and Daniel were roommates at the Cornerstone. Jeremy married a sweet, fun-loving, Jesus-loving, great-laughing, girl named Sarah. I met her for the first time this weekend and can see what it is in her that has Jeremy so smitten - she's great!

We're a bit sleep-deprived from our long weekend in Seattle, but are so grateful to have been there. We arrived Friday and went to bed around 3 a.m. Fort Worth time. We stayed with Anna, my best friend from high school. We slept about 6 hours that night, then went to the rehearsal and brunch. Jeremy and his dad own a restaurant, Sorci's Italian Cafe & Market. The wedding was in the garden behind the cafe and the restaurant catered the brunc and the reception. Great food! Absolutely fantastic! We ran into Kelly Aldrich, another guy who had lived at the Cornerstone with Daniel and Jeremy and who was the best man in the wedding.

After the rehearsal and brunch, we headed to downtown Seattle for a litte sight-seeing.

Anna showed us around Pike's Place, a well-known open market in Seattle.

Look, Daniel found a "little person" :-)

The fresh fruits and veges looked delicious!

We checked out the original Starbucks across the street from the market.

THE WEDDING DAY

The wedding was outside in the garden behind the restaurant. It was lovely. Washington isn't like the South, with a bunch of church-goers running around everywhere. Instead, there are many there who don't really know much about Christianity. I'm sure their wedding will bring about many questions, and maybe, just maybe, the Lord will allow several to come into His kingdom through the testimony of their wedding ceremony as well as the testimony they will have in marriage. They washed each other's feet during the ceremony and took com-

munion. They wrote the sweetest vows to each other and the wedding was really beautiful! Hot, but beautiful! :-) They sealed the ceremony with a fun kiss...and they were glowing as they walked away from the ceremony as Mr. and Mrs. Jeremy Annillo!

The reception was much fun and we really enjoyed hearing more about Sarah as her family and friends said such sweet, sweet things about her as they made toasts to Jeremy and Sarah. It is obvious that she is a good friend, a good sister, a good daughter who loves deeply those in her life! Jeremy's mom said that Jeremy had once told her he wanted to marry someone who was fun-loving, adven-
turous, and who loved God. She said that when she met Sarah, she knew this was the girl for Jeremy! Everyone said that after meeting the other one, they knew this was right. They knew it was from God and that Jeremy and Sarah were perfect for each other!!
