Married in North Carolina - Chris and Lauryn

It's that wonderful time of the year. Winter is turning into spring and each day brings new surprises.

And what surprises our late winter/early spring weather can bring! Just this week people were visiting the mountains of North Carolina planning for a few days of snow skiing only to find temperatures in the 70's. And now, two days later, there is fresh snow and the ski resorts are busy with happy people. I know for a fact there are at least two very happy people, Chris and Lauryn, who enjoying the winter weather and their first days of married life.

Back to surprises... Chris is a sly one and had a really big surprised planned for the love of his life. He and Lauryn drove from Florida looking forward to a change in climate and hopefully find a little snow. Little did Lauryn know, Chris had been busy planning one of the biggest surprises of her life. What began as a winter vacation suddenly turned into a wedding and honeymoon. Not sure how Chris told her the 'news' but I'm sure sweet memories were made.

 

Isn't Lauryn a beautiful bride? 

Keeping her eyes on the man who was soon to become her husband.

I pledge to share with you my heart,

my life, and my love, from this day forward.

 Time to relax, take a deep breath.

The engagement is over. The marriage has begun.

 No caption needed here.

 

 Taking a little time to explore and enjoy the wonderful weather.
Many fun times ahead for these two.
