Seems like forever ago.

I guess I've forgotten to post more wedding pics like I said I would. Here are a few more from before and during the ceremony. It seems like the wedding was so long go. I love looking at the pictures so I can remember how exciting that day was!

Pre-Ceremony Pictures

Here are some pictures from before the ceremony. There are so many good ones it's hard to choose! I'm going to work on copying the CD of pictures and mailing it out to everyone so they can decide which pictures they want.


One of my most favorite!


This is one of my favorite moments of the whole day.





Aww.... I love you Mom.

We got the pictures!!

We got the wedding pictures!! I think what I'll do is just post a few a day for a while. Is that ok? I'm in love with all of them! We'll start out with the pictures while we were getting ready.






I wonder what in the world I was thinking about for this one!








I'll do more tomorrow!

Preview!

Nicole sent a preview of the wedding photos. I love all of these, and I can't wait to see the rest! So far it looks like she really outdid herself!

And this last one.....so sweet.

We're back!

We're back from our honeymoon! Everything was so amazing! The wedding was perfect, the weather was great, and I couldn't have asked for better friends and family! I can't believe how much they all helped me those few days before, during, and after the wedding. I'll go into more detail about the wedding another day. I'm still kinda overwhelmed by everything. Even though the wedding is over, the wedding "stuff" is all over the house. We spent some time this evening putting things away. It seems we'll have salt and pepper, napkins, cups, and silverware for the next several years!

I made a little outdoor pen for the chickens yesterday. They've been in a pen in the garage for the past month, and it was time they went out. I made a little temporary pen with plastic poultry fence and step-in posts. They had a blast! Every time they'd see a shadow of a bird flying overhead, they'd make a beeline for the corner and pile up!





This little guy is my favorite! He's so tiny, but he's got a huge attitude! He's so funny. I'll put my hand down towards him, and he'll come right up to me. He still fits in the palm of my hand. I need a good name for him. Any suggestions?



And here's Miss Frizzle all feathered out. Have you ever seen The Magic School Bus? I thought the name Miss Frizzle fit her. Check out her hair!


Well, that's all for tonight! We're getting ready to eat dinner. We also moved the big couch from the basement up to the living room. We only had that loveseat up there, and it was so hard to relax and watch TV on that little thing!

Oh yeah, and tomorrow I'll show you my turkeys!

Something is wrong with my computer.

I'm not sure what the deal is. It's either a problem with Blogger or my computer. I usually use Firefox as my browser, but it won't open so I'm having to use Internet Explorer. I can't move the pictures like I used to be able to, so that's why the garden picture is at the top of the post on my last entry. I'll have to do it for this entry also.

I just wanted to show you this honeysuckle I planted at the old house a few years ago. I was hoping it'd be blooming for the wedding, and boy is it ever! It is covered with blooms! And you know what I didn't even realize until I put these blossoms in the vase? They match my bridesmaid dress colors! Sweet!

5 Days Left

I think someone hit the fast forward button. Only 5 days? I came home and finished hemming Kylee's flowergirl dress. Aren't they cute? Becky did a great job sewing them! All I had to do was sew on the ribbons and hem one dress. One more thing done!


Remember the seeds I planted the other day? They're up and growing now!

Nasturtium:
Cosmos (one of my absolute favorites)


Sunflowers


Does anyone know what this is? It's trying to take over the hedgerow. It's everywhere. It has several different shaped leaves on the plant. I remember learning about it, but I can't remember what it is.

And it forms these catkin-like things.


We're getting ready to go to Sam's Club and buy a bunch of stuff for the wedding food. Then we're going to Walmart, Joann's, Staples, and maybe JC Penney. It's going to be a long night. :-)

One week left!!!

This time next Saturday I'll be a Mrs.!!!! Seems crazy! My dad came for a visit today and helped me put together the arbor for the wedding. I think we made a pretty good team, if I do say so myself. We got that baby put together and taken over to the wedding site. Check one thing off the list! What do you think of it?

I'm not sure if I want to decorate it or leave it plain. I love how rustic it looks, and I'd hate to ruin it with cheesy fake flowers. Maybe tulle? Or just plain? Any thoughts?

Here is a little building (I think the owner called it the smokehouse) at the ceremony site. I adore it. I'll definitely have to get pictures with it for the wedding. With it? Like it's a person or something.





Check out the irises around it!! And guess what else is planted there?!!






This little beauty and dozens more of her friends! And the best part? The owner said I could cut them to use in the wedding!!! Yipeeee!!!
