Way Back Wednesday




I'm kind of excited about this.. The idea is to answer the "Way Back Wednesday" question of the week and then link up (which I'm not sure I did right, I guess we'll find out)..

This week's question is:

What are your favorite memories from your wedding?

Hmmmmm.. First off, my wedding doesn't count as way back, I've only been married for 6 months (we don't count the first time, I've successfully block almost all of those memories unless they involve Oliver & Tallulah).

The whole day was pretty much awesome, it's hard to pick..





First off, I was not nervous, I was excited.. I remember Maud delivering my cake, and it was GORGEOUS .





And then getting to the church and walking in on my best friend & his wife rehearsing the music, and it sounded so beautiful that I teared up and had to leave before I ruined my makeup.

And the kids looked so good, just angelic.. That's always nice.






The expression on Bean's face when I walked in was amazing.


During picture time everyone was all goofy, and that was fun - and for a couple of shots, the photographers all ummm, Jenn, get up on the piano and I was all huh and she was like yup, I think I want you up on the piano. So I had to call #5 in to help me up on the piano, because, while I could have done it alone, my dumbass probably would have ripped my dress, and #5 is ridiculously strong..


Then after all that, we just went back to the house to hang out (it was not a huge wedding) and Aunt Godmother gave us her gift - it was this huge ass box full of Hallmark Peanuts ornaments that she had been collecting and saving for Bean for 35 years.. I cried.



And to top all of it off, they pimped out my car..






It was pretty much a perfect day.

Victoria said...

What a great wedding! I love the cake and the box or ornaments is such a sweet gift!

It was an even better cake because my ex mother-in-law made it, all of her cakes are awesome - she needs a blog, she did a pirate ship with a sail & cannons for Oliver one year..

And the ornaments were so awesome because I'm Christmas crazy - as in 5 trees Christmas Crazy.

Beautiful pictures. Looks like you had a wonderful wedding.

Now... my first wedding was a big elaborate 300 plus guest in attendance production. I should have beat feet when I thought of it, while standing at the altar.

The 2nd time - I married my Mr Perfect. We eloped. No muss, no fuss.......perfect!

Jennifer Juniper said...

Lol.. I vaguely remember my first one being large, but it was hard to tell through the hysterical sobs.

We did simple, almost no decorations, no suits for the guys & LBDs for the girls, I think other than the rings Tallulah's dress was the most expensive part.

Oh, and we had catering by Pa.

(Have I mentioned how much I love that man??)

Good times, good times. I got hit on and everything. Except... I am curious as to why Mr. J wasn't at this wedding... hmmm....

In any case, it was fabulous.
The first wedding involved a bar. I remember that. Oh, and Amara being nice to me. Noteworthy stuff and all.

I also got all farklempt about the ornaments after Aunt Godmother explained it to me. TOTALLY awesome.

Candance said...

You're dress is freaking awesome! Sounds like the perfect wedding-and day!

Jennifer Juniper said...

Amara being nice to anyone, ever, is noteworthy. Didn't she introduce you to people as my only "real" friend??

And I have no idea why Glass wasn't there, I can't remember if we invited him..

Miley said...

yes, she did!! THAT was how she was nice! Of course, at the time, considering I drove 5 hours to the wedding I think it wasn't sarcasm.

Glass... hmmm... You'll have to explain the name to me later.
