Our Wedding

Who knew that a dinner party would create such a beautiful union. &nbsp;One Friday night George and Shameka were both invited to attend the birthday dinner of Shameka’s cousin, Sonja.&nbsp; When George arrived, there was one seat left, and it was next to Shameka.&nbsp;George asked if the seat was taken, and Shameka said “no”.&nbsp;As the night progressed Shameka was scrolling Facebook and George said “hey, you should add me” Shameka replied “I don’t know you” but turns out they were already friends on Facebook and had never met, as a matter-of-fact Shameka had wished George Happy Birthday a few weeks earlier.&nbsp;They laughed about and continued to talk the rest of the night. After many Facebook messenger conversations, they exchanged numbers. After just talking to each other they decided to go on a date.&nbsp;The first date was swinging on the front porch swing of Argenta in North Little Rock.&nbsp;&nbsp; This union is orchestrated by God, and we are overjoyed!&nbsp;

Shun and I met over 20 years ago.  I didn't have any immediate family in Little Rock, but little did I know I would gain one. She made sure for Holidays and Sunday dinners to always include me and Carrington.  Blood didn't make us sisters but our friendship over the years has.

"Michelle" or "Chelle" as Goerge calls her has welcomed me with open arms.  Michelle is George's God sister.  Whenever George is trying to be funny, I know I got back up.
