CHAD & KORI

We have a connection with Chad and Kori that looks back a number of years but each with different situations. Kori's family were fellow home school friends, but on rival basketball teams! Kori played at the time our Natalie did and Kori's sister played directly opposite our Amber. The younger two, due to their personality types, had some pretty heated competitions, where the two older played more for fun! All four were great fun to watch and cheer on.

Now, Chad we knew through his mom, Sheila. She keeps us looking presentable (our hair that is). So we watched him grow in pictures on Sheila's stylist station. Both Chad and Kori have grown into beautiful young adults, both inside and out.

A couple of weeks ago I talked to Chad's mom about the theme she was using for their rehearsal dinner and when she told me that she was using a baseball theme and wanted to do baseball cards, I thought that that was an outstanding idea! Obviously they are not fans of the same team, so this made it even more interesting. We all wanted to meet on a ball field, but with as much rain as we had had, that was impossible, so we took the competition inside. Things started off light and fun...
...and then the mood changed a bit...
...when the conversation turned to who's team was the best....
But all in all, they decided to agree to disagree. If they can keep that frame of mind in all of their disagreements throughout their married life, it will be much sweeter. Chad and Kori will be exchanging vows on June 14 in Benton. We pray God's richest blessings on your life together.
