Last night we got lost in a town that, according to wikipedia, has 2,975 residents as of 2004. There are 2 redlights. 1 McDonalds.
We had to find First Baptist Church.
We went to the bank downtown: they sent us in the wrong direction. To no where.
While driving around in no where, we see an ice cream truck. We asked the lady in the ice cream truck. SHE DRIVES AROUND TOWN ALL FREAKING DAY IN A FREAKING ICE CREAM TRUCK. Surely she will know where FBC Frostproof is. She says, “You won’t believe this, but I’m from Lakeland.”
Seriously. I didn’t make that up.
Her directions took us to an elementary school. Cussing 1, Emily 0.
We asked some guys on the side of the road by the auto repair shop. They pointed us in the right direction, but we ended up at the methodist church. Frostproof is not good at denominations, or directions.
Finally, we had to call the people we were meeting and have them get us there via cellphone. We were 30 minutes late.
The wedding starts tonight at 6:00! I’m singing I need You (that one that LeAnn Rhymes did) and it’s not really my typical wedding song, so I’m nervous about it. Mike is playing guitar for me, because he is my hero.
We will let you know how it goes.
PS. If you’re getting married in the Central Florida area and want some quality live music for your ceremony, holler at us!
Goodness… I know it wasn’t funny then at all… but its funny to read now
I miss you. have fun singing, I know it’s not your fav, but I bet you sound great!
ah, the joys of small town Central Florida! have fun!
I did holler at you about 5 years ago and you did a freakin’ awesome job! If you had known Mike then I probably would have hollered at him too.
If Frostproof’s like it was last time I was there, then there weren’t any road signs, either.
Hah, I used to be on staff with that church. I could not tell you how to get there either!
