Kelly and Mike's Wedding

Part 2

Kelly was gorgeous (she always is!!) Her dress has an amazing story. She is the fifth person in her family to wear the dress. It started with her Grandmother, then her Mom and two aunts wore the dress. Finally Kelly's turn. She had the dress re-made with a modern style but everything on the dress was on the dress before, nothing new was added.

The twins were the flower girl and ring bearer. Thank you so much Kelly and Mike for asking them to be part of your big day.  They made it all the way down the aisle, they RAN down the aisle! Then after all the running took a nap during church.

It was so good to see my sorority sisters. I havn't seen them since my wedding in 2007. We really need to have a summer reunion every year because we only see "everyone" at weddings. What will we do after everyone gets married?? A reunion  is a fantastic idea! Who wants to plan it??

It is ALWAYS  so much fun to party with the Knibbs family.  They really know how to throw a fabulous wedding!!!! We had a great time and it was fun to see a little bit of Chicago. It was the twins first trip, we will be going back, hopefully soon!!

Kelly and Mike's Wedding Part 1

 It was a great trip to Chicago. Me, Mom, Paula, Paige, Carter and Kenna all went on the road trip together!!
Part 1
  I wanted to capture a few of the details of the wedding and atmosphere of just being in the "Windy City".  Kelly's wedding was fabulous. I loved every part of it.
Thank you Kelly and Mike for inviting me and my family to share your big day!!

  The reception was at the Columbia Yacht Club.  It is a big ship that is docked in the harbor.  With a resturant, bar, and huge deck for parties!! 

This is the view from the top deck during cocktail hour.  Beautiful!!

I love flowers and colors!! I also love to eat. The food was soooo good. I tried to make the new potatoes and pearl onions like they were at the wedding :) Wish I would have taken a picture of the food.

All of the sail boats in the harbor.  I was dreaming of having one of those boats.

The view from our hotel.

Wow!! What a weekend! The good part is next in part 2!!!!!

Ashley and Aaron's Wedding

Ashley and Aaron were married in Ohio and I was so excited to be invited to share their special day!! Ashley was stunning, I absolutely LOVED her dress. Her wedding colors were kelly green and white. All the bridesmaids were in kelly green dresses and Ashley had kelly green shoes (so cute!!!)  

Paula was in the wedding, Eric was supposed to be but couldn't get away from AIT. He was missed the whole night but Al (his brother) was a great stand-in.  It is always fun to party with the Millers :)

The twins had tons of fun staying with "Big" Michele and "Little" Michele. I just hope Michele still wants babies of her own :) I had a night out!  On the way to the wedding  Dad drove, Mom was the passenger, and I sat in the back seat with my eyes shut just relaxing. It was soooo nice. Thank you so much for watching the twins!!!

The girls! Mom, Me and Paula at the wedding. We danced and had such a great time! Congratulations Ashley and Aaron!! I hope you are having fun on your big honeymoon to Korea. Best wishes for a long, happy life full of love!!!
