Kara's Wedding - The Day Before

My sister got married this past weekend...here are some pictures of our time on Friday, the day before the wedding :)

First we went and got "beautified" :)

 

 Kara & my Mom

Me and Aletheia (who was also in the wedding)

 Kara getting her eyebrows done.  This was so cool - they literally just use regular string!

 Then she decided to get fake eyelashes...which I normally think of the fake looking Halloween ones...but these were WAY different, and looked really nice!  They took little pieces and "glued" them on.  See the little black dots on her eye lid?  That was it!

 All done!

 Next it was time for our nails...Kara and Aletheia got pedicures too.

 My mom got acrylic nails

 Don't worry, they will cut them down :) :)

They had to GLUE Kara's toe nail back on - oops!  Good place for it to happen...she figured it would fall off, so what better place than at a nail salon!  (It was stepped on several weeks ago, and was looking VERY loose!)

 Much better :)

 I just did french tips and kept my own nails :)

 Aletheia had a pretty purple color

 Kara and Aletheia

 All done!

 Aletheia decided to try out the string on her eyebrows too :)

The three of us

 Jessica and Lissa - they helped me and Aletheia make up Kara's rehearsal bouquet :)

 The happy couple :)

Kara, Dan, my mom, and Damaris

Stephen and Titus

 Titus's thank you gift for being in the wedding was a cool bow and arrow set :)

 Damaris got a tea set for being in the wedding

 Time to practice!

My dad and Kara

 All the bridesmaids and my sister.  We had so. much. fun.  They are great!!!

 After the rehearsal, we had a personal shower for Kara...just a few "safe" pictures to post :)

Kara had to go on a scavenger hunt for one of her gifts - the girl dropped it off on the porch of the wrong house :) :) :)

 I really do not like shower games...so for a game this time, I made KARA play and the rest of us laugh and watch :)  This was one where she had to get "dressed" for her honeymoon blindfolded...and I had gotten the ugliest stuff I could find on clearance isles for her to put on :) :) :)

It was a lot of fun

Next up, the wedding day :) :) :)
