Steel Magnolias

My sister in law (sister in my book) emailed me pictures from a dear friend, Luke Walter's daughter's wedding last weekend. Oh wow, the wedding was gorgeous! They live on a plantation in an old southern antebellum home with a huge porch on the front with hundred year old, moss covered, lazy oak trees adorning the yard. The wedding took place there. With white tents and twinkle lights everywhere it looked like a southern fairy tale or a modern day "Steel Magnolias".
Everything looked pristine. Wow, it gave me a proud moment that I'm from the South. As much heat as the South takes at times with movies like Water Boy, I still stand tall and say I'm a Southern girl and proud of it!! :)

I may say "fixin to" and "huh" or "good gracious" but that's okay. I am who I am. You are who you are!!
There's nothing wrong with bettering yourself and speaking properly, but don't lose who God made you.

By the way, don't miss Pastor Jim Graff speaking tonight at the North Campus. You will enjoy!!
Bye yall!
(I had too!)

Oh wow Stacy, I have to admit I struggle with being from the South sometimes. The language drives me crazy, politics, the school systems.... Thanks for this!! I needed that encouragement.
