Trip to NW Arkansas for Lannie Hillabrand's and Erin Brewer's Wedding


The Crane family: Julie (mom & wife) with Sara McKenzie and Logan with Chloe Elizabeth. During college Logan was my best lifting partner. I am thankful to God for him and his family.
One can never be armed too well. Logan is here holding his new Bushmaster M4 model AR-15 w/ collapsible stock. Hoorah! Eat your heart out anti-gun wackos.
Logan Crane and I having a later dinner at a Mexican restaurant in Elkins, AR. He let me patrol with him on this night. See that shirt I'm wearing; he designed it.

The Hobbs family had me over for dinner on Tuesday night. Pictured from left to right: Ryan (who hosts this Web site!), Will, and Katy.
Me and Janell Hendren at her parents' house in Bentonville, AR. She and I attended primary and secondary school together. Sweet lady.
I believe this is Little Osage Creek. It flows for miles through Cave Springs, AR. Between the ages of ten and thirteen years, I spent countless hours fishing this stream I'm surprised any fish remain. :)

Having lunch with Grandma Ritchey. The bib was a good idea.

Wish this one would have been a little darker, tsk
The Moore family had me over for dinner on Monday night. Pictured from left to right: Steve, Laura, Josh, and April.
While I attended the U of A, Steve served as my university minister at First Baptist Church of Springdale, AR.
Guess what this is? The 630' tall St. Louis Arch is constructed of stainless steel. I was impressed. Nice park too!
Told you it was made of st. steel. Check out that shine!
 
Tell me this doesn't look like part of the international space station. Once you get to the top of this bad boy, you can view the cityscape through the rectangular windows you see here.
 
My favorite photo
Overflowing with joy, Erin and Lannie face the witnesses as their wedding ceremony ends. One of many post-wedding pics. They're still happy; that's a good sign!
The groomsmen and the bride. From left to right: Eric Brewer (Erin's brother), Jim Hillabrand (Lannie's dad), me, Jason Spann, Jeremy Hunt. 
The wedding party at a park near downtown Bentonville, AR
I am here commending Erin for the rich Scriptural content of her vows to God and Lannie. Her words were a blessing to hear.  
Jeremy Hunt, Lannie Hillabrand, and I at Lannie's wedding rehearsal dinner. Erin Brewer (his bride) and Lannie treated the wedding party to a nice meal at the Bella Vista Yacht Club.
As long as I can remember, Jeremy (J.P.) Hunt has always been able to bring good humor to just about any setting. Here he is with one of his many goofy faces. Ha.
The wedding reception was excellent, very tastefully done. For the first time since I graduated from high school (1993), I spoke with Angela Seay, Megan VonGremp, Janell Hendren, Betsy Revard, and Michelle Clinger.  
A fairly recent addition to the University of Arkansas-Fayetteville campus. This fountain is located between the architecture building and Old Main.
