Happy Anniversary!

A year ago today, July 10th, I married my best friend. After a hugely long engagament, and a WHOOOOOLE lot of planning, it finally happened. It rained in the morning, but cleared up outside by 1 PM, and was nice for the rest of the day and night. I cried and laughed and smiled more that day than any other day I can think of.  I love you hubby!

XOXO

Happy 4th Of July!

Ahhh 4th of July! I love fireworks! Going to a graduation party today, and watching the fireworks from almost a front row position in a neighboring town, should be a great time! And hoorah for a day off work!

One year ago today, it was 6 days short of my wedding day. I recall being so stressed out and nervous, but I allowed myself time to go out on the 4th to NOT think about the wedding for a little bit. It was so fantastic to relax (as much as I could) I cannot believe how fast this first year has flown by!

Hope everyone has a great day!

Wedding Dress Blog Tour

I was going down my blogroll catching up on some blogs. I went to check in over at Tara's View Of The World, and noticed a blog post called the Wedding Dress Blog Tour, (Mclinky at Shasher's Life), and decided it would be fun to join in, especially with our 1 year anniversary creeping up!

Without further ado: Here's my wedding dress! It was worn on July 10, 2009, in a Chicago suburb. It rained that morning, but it cleared up by noon!

I absolutely loved my dress. I was comfortable, and felt like a princess at the same time!

Simple and to the point. I went in not even wanting any lace on my dress, and upon seeing all the all lace dresses, I completely changed my mind. 

I am keeping my dress. I don't have the heart to sell it. It's hanging in the closet in our spare room right now, I should probably take it to get it preserved..actually..probably should have done that a while ago!

So there you have it! Care to join in the Wedding Dress Blog Tour? Click Here for the instructions and McLinky!

A Few Wedding Pictures

I don't have much time, because I have to head to work, but wanted to toss up a few pictures from the wedding! :)

 

 

 

Wife Chop

Tonight's the night! My haircut appointment is at 6:30. I'm keeping a decent amount of the length, but I'm going to actually get a style instead of "I havent cut my hair in 7 months" do! I can't wait!

And, I got my disc of pro-pictures from my amazing photographer today, so I will add some of them as soon as they're done copying to the computer!
