profiles of the wedding party: j norm & davey

grooms man, jonathon norman, or stphransus for you blogosphere friends, is one of my oldest friends since moving to nashville. we actually met in '97, at camp, but he doesn't remember that too much, so we won't count that.

jonathon has been my buddy and partner in crime and wreaking havoc in the youth ministry world for over six year now. we are church geeks in that we take monastery pilgrimages together and get excited over church architecture, and theologians people have never heard of. over the years we've become family friends too, love jennifer, jonas and abby. erin & i got to welcome abby when she first came into the world. jen doesn't mind when i drop by the norman house late at night (although i have to have some reason). we're excited to have jonathon represent his family as we start ours.

grooms man, david (davey) young, is one of my few close friends from college. davey and i spent two years together as the only males in the college of human environmental sciences at the university of alabama. we were majors in child development, so that meant lots of girls who wanted an mrs. degree. the guys, however, had to have promise to make money so we were left to give out project advice or play around with the 2-5 year olds in the cdc.

the crowning achievement of college, and our wesley foundation, was winning the floor hockey intramurals one year... how sad, i was a goalie back in new jersey because i couldn't handle a puck, but put me on a team in the south and watch me score goals. my nj friends still laugh at that, my ua friends still talk about that.

davey moved to nashville and lived with shawn and myself for almost two years. he had to move to houston to do be a child life therapist at texas children's hospital, but are still good friends and he's my research analysis for all things bama football. just ask him anything about bama football if you have a couple of hours. &:~D

I don't know about that J. Norm guy. He looks kinda shady.

I hope you have a wonderful wedding day!

Have a wonderful day! (And try and post something a little sooner than Derek Tang did after he got married!)
