Mr. and Mrs. Sinclair

I've been blessed by having a friend ever since I can remember (since I was 3 years old). We weren't part of a home school co-op, but anything "extra curricular" we did together. Nursing home visits, CAT, theatrical productions by our families, soccer, musical endeavors, I mean, it's been great.
After we completed high school, Miss Kelsey went to off to college in California. We kept in contact with emails, prayer requests, and annual/biannual visits when she came home for vacation. About a year ago, we met for coffee and I was told that, "there's this guy". I was so excited for her. The following January, I got a text saying, "Guess what?!" and a picture THAT DIDN'T COME THROUGH.

I was thrilled when I got a phone call from Kelsey asking me to play cello for her wedding. Another meeting for music, final selection, and before I knew it, I was getting ready to board a plane.

Despite plane complications, I arrived in time for the dress rehearsal dinner. It was so much fun to be able to meet some of Kel's friends from college and get to know them. I thought we did a good job - none of us were up way too late. I think we all got about 12 hrs. of sleep night before the wedding. :)

The wedding coordinator did an amazing job - it was not a rushed morning, but we kept moving. I loved getting to pray for Kels and Taylor before all the preparations started. It was a sweet time of fellowship.
Since everything was so relaxed, it was funny to realize that the wedding was starting in a couple hours and that I needed to get to the location. :)

God was the real coordinator of this wedding. So many things could have gone wrong, and they didn't. I was scared I was completely out of tune, but I wasn't. Nobody tripped walking down the aisle, nobody stopped before the should have, and Kels and Taylor got married!!!


I have been so blessed by Kels in my life. She has always been an encouragement to me and has always stood for what she believes, even when we were little and "out-numbered". I don't know Taylor yet, but I'm excited to get to know them as a couple. I'm excited to see what God is going to use them for.
