About a Girl

Let me introduce you to Scott Smith...fiance of fellow Variegated Collective member and beloved friend, Casey Smith (she will be Casey Smith-Smith, I guess). This young man has pursued our friend Casey for going on three years now and we couldn't be more excited about their wedding! This weekend was Casey's bachelorette party in Gulf Shores and we wound up getting to spend some quality time with the groom-to-be on our way down. Scott has moved into his and Casey's future home (pictured behind) a

nd is working in Montgomery, where she will join him in October post-the Lake Guntersville wedding festivities. This weekend we thought it would be cool to quiz Scott a little on his knowledge and history on his relationship with Casey...what started as just a fun idea turned into a drizzly afternoon at a neighborhood coffee shop (just around the corner from their house), gathered around gelato and a couple notebooks while we laughed and "awe"ed over Scott's answers to our questions. (Let me interject here that this is only new news to Lori and Anna and our non-member readers...Jennifer, Michelle, and I were the ones eating ice cream) (oh, and Casey was not there for the interview, she was already at the beach wondering why it was taking us so long to get there). Can I just say that this man is all about a girl?? I've never seen a guy light up so much the way Scott does when he talks about Casey. It was so cool going into the bachelorette weekend seeing what we all saw in Scott's eyes and getting to spend the next few days with his bride-to-be. If that isn't the love that God meant to be between a man and wife then what is? This weekend was peppered with those magic moments...exactly what I treasure--what we all treasure--about having Casey in our lives...to Casey & Scott--Cheers!
