Fifteen years ago today I married my best friend!!! That is so hard to believe. The time has flown by! He is my life. I love him with all my heart! I am so thankful to God who knew that Charlie was the right man for me. We have two beautiful girl's together. He is a wonderful father to them. He is also a great father and role model for my son!
I can remember our wedding day like it was yesterday!! It was perfect. The food, the ceremony, the guests, the music, the weather...even was snowing a little. It has been an amazing 15 years. like everyone we have had our ups and downs. Fortunately more ups than downs. We have grown a lot!! We serve an amazing God! I can't wait to see what God has in store for us in the next 15 years.
Thought it would be fun in honor of our anniversary I would share how we were introduced at our reception. A dear family friend Dorothy James wrote this." It's my privilege to introduce to you today all those involved in the latest merger of Keating tarms and Bailey Exc.-Roto-Rooter service.These three have done all the footwork for this merger:Todd Henderson, usher and an employee of Butler mfg. is the one who engineers this enterprise around any threatening obstacles.Todd Anderson: usher and employee of Ink and Image does all the graphic designing for this enterprise. I think he's working on a new logo of a pig driving a bulldozer.Scott Twidwell: usher and employed by the City of Galesburg police Department is head of security i this merger. It seems that all his experience driving machinery at the Keating Farm didn't prepare him enough for driving a police car.She is a Galesburg native and received her real estate license through Carl Sandburg college. Currently she is secretary of Bailey Exc. and may be the one who leaks out secret information about boss Charlie to her very good friend Sherri. Bridesmaid Malissa CashHe is the chaplain of this enterprise also a youth pastor at Bethel Baptist and the father of a two year old. Rumor has it he has just mastered his moodiness...I mean got his masters from moody. Groomsman Matt HarrisShe is an Illinois Wesleyan freshman who is responsible for bringing this merger about by taking Sherri to Insight on Thursday nights, thereby meeting Charlie. She also engineered the plan for tping the inside of Charlie's truck. Bridesmaid and good friend Jennifer McKennaHe is employed at national coating and attends Carl Sandburg College. Being married to secretary Malissa, Sherri's friend, and being a friend of Charlie's makes him a natural for probing both sides of this merger. Groomsman Charlie CashShe is a Monmouth native and attended Trinity Christian College. As a lifetime close friend of Sherri's she's the operator to contact if you want to dig deep to find out anything about Sherri. Bridesmaid Kathy RobertsonHe is a dedicated good friend who's soon to become a father. An inside informant reports that Bailey's may be going into the roofing business also because Charlie and this young man have been to known to check out the roofs of Galesburg High School and the Orpheum Theater. Groomsman Jamie BledsoeShe is the Sister of the bride and lives in Greenville, IL attending Cascaskia college in Centralia, She's well acquainted with the Keating Farms as she and Sherri worked together many years on the farms. The Keating girl's shared their first car a Buick with license plate keatin 2. Maid of Honor Anita KeatingHe is the older brother, co owner and president of Bailey Exc. who always had a shadow named charlie when he was growing up. If there's any embarrassing moments taking place he's probably at the root of them. Best Man Ted BaileyShe brings to this merger all the expertise she has gained working full time the last few years for Keating Farms. Isn't it ironic that this hog farmer's daughter would root out a lifelong companion who loves to play in the dirt.Ladies and Gentlemen, the bride- Mrs. Charlie BaileyHe is co-owner, Vice president and operator of Bailey Exc. and Roto-Rooter service. Such a determined young man is bound to bring success to this merger. For example even though he has really liked his hair longer since he was very young, when he met Sherri and became interested he cut his hair to make points with a certain dad. What a promising future this merger has and we wish it to be lengthy, full of love and blessed by God. Ladies and gentlemen, the groom Charlie Bailey
