Wedded Bliss

Happy Anniversary to us! 8 years, WOW. We share this great anniversary with our bestest of friends Greg and Sara. Sara and I met in nursing school and that was the first of many things that we found that we had in common...how often do you find someone who got married the exact same day as you? cool huh? We've been best friends ever since. It's been a really great 8 years. Time flies when you are having fun and with the one you love.

This past weekend we attended my cousin's wedding in Walla Walla. It brought back so many happy memories of our wedding. They are young high school sweethearts just like we were(and still are). When you marry as young as we did, I think you grow up together. You make mistakes together and learn about life together and that only brings you closer.

My family prepared the food for this wedding...375 guests were served and my Dad amazed me once again with his kitchen skills. The food was awesome. I helped but I can't take too much credit. I helped prepare the fruit trays and the meat trays and then I had the lucky job of serving the meatballs to ensure no one took 5 (and mind you people DID ask for 5!) so I was labeled "meatball Nazi". Oh well, someone had to do it and I did it with a smile so there. :) We decided that Justin had the hardest job of all...he chased all 3 kids while I helped in the kitchen...thank you to my sweetheart husband. I got a lot of compliments on him that day! :) Here are some pictures from the wedding!

Notice Grace's dress. This is the dress that I wore to my Uncle Greg and Aunt Sue's wedding 27 years ago and then Grace wore it to their son's wedding this past weekend. Isn't that COOL! :) Oh yea, and the dress was hand made by a friend of my Mom's...thank you mom for keeping it!

Here I am with my Mom and Miss Grace!
