the bridesmaid proposal

friday night seven of us girls  gathered for a lovely lady date,

hosted by my dear friend rachel

she cooked us up a mexican feast (all gluten-free, because she's gluten free)

 and boy did we induldge!

just before dinner was served, rachel surprised us

with small gift bags and proposed,
asking us 6 girls if we'd be her braidesmaids

we cried, we laughed, we did the...

"oh my gosh we're so old"

we were all giddy on wedding plans, dresses, bachelorette parties

but overall, we were happy to celebrate our closest friend

rachel and her fiance, nate.

rachel is my oldest friend

our moms were friends long before we were born

she was the only house i'd sleep at as a kid

my first best friend,

but more than that, she's like the sister i never had...

i am honored to share this beautiful time in rachel's life

and to add this to our long list of stories to tell

most of all, i look forward for all that is to come for her, for all of us, for life!
