My Sister Kelly Is Married!!
Introducing the new Mr. & Mrs. Brenton Benware!!!
Kelly Dongell is now Kelly Benware! We've been teasing my sister about her new last name. The night before she got married one of the girls said, "Kelly Been Where?" (Benware) and another one of the girls (in her strong Southern accent) excitedly said "Kelly been married."

Thoughts on Kelly and Brenton...
I am so blessed to have shared such a special memory with my sister and my new brother-in-law! Their fairytale wedding was perfect! God will and has blessed the two of them greatly for their faithfulness to Him! Both Kelly and Brenton are such fun people, and time with them was cherished! Congrats Kel and Brenton!
