Then they got cold.

 The beach was very windy and very cold but was worth it for the photos.  

And then they were married!!!

 We are so thrilled for so many reasons

1. We love Allyson- nice work Dan.

2.  We are so happy they are living less than an hour away.

3. We can't wait for our new baby cousin!

Boys Getting Ready

 We got to see the last stages of the boys getting ready too.  

Girls Getting Ready

 We were thrilled to go to Dan and Allyson's wedding in Chatham and had so much fun getting ready at the salon. 

Wedding in Woodstock

 We had a great time in Vermont for Ian and Kristin's wedding in Woodstock. 

The weekend was also full of fun activities with great friends.  

5 years!

 We can't believe it has been 5 years since our wedding. We have such great memories of that day and we can't wait to see what the next 5 years bring.  

1 year ago today!

We got married!!!!!!!!!!!
It has been a wonderful year!

Mourning

I can see why people are sad their wedding is over. It was a lot of work, but worth every moment in the amount of memories we have from it. But, even though I understand why people are sad when it's over. I am not, it was everything I hoped it would be and I wouldn't change a thing.

Brunch

We had a lovely brunch the next morning before people went on their way. It was so great to be able to say good-bye to everyone and you couldn't beat the view.

Party Suite

Baer and I snuck up to the party suite in the morning to see what had transpired. We had left when someone mentioned the need to order dominos pizza. Well it was ordered and eaten.




We were glad to see everyone made it to bed and we were also glad we did not wake up in the morning like the pictures above.

Nice Surprise

I don't actually have any more pictures of the wedding, you'll have to refer to Erin's blog for that : ) We did have a nice surprise when we returned to our room. Chris, the wedding coordinator was great and set up some cake, champagne, and drinks for when we returned to the room. He also left a beautiful note about insights to marriage. The Ocean View did a fabulous job and they really made our day feel special.

Of course I'll climb out a window.

So when we met our photographer he told us that he likes to photograph couples that will basically do anything. Well I did not want to disappoint him so when he proposed that I climb out the window onto the roof to wait for Baer I said. SURE! NO PROBLEM! Here we are examining the roof, which was a little slippery in heels I'm not going to lie.
I'm sure the final result in pictures was great and it was a special way to see each other before the wedding while our family got a watch from down below.
PS there are all Erin's pictures because I don't actually have any of my own.

TheTuxedo

Even though finding a tux isn't quite as involved as finding a dress, Baer looked very handsome in his tuxedo! He followed the schedule that i made him and was ready exactly when he needed to. He even ate both breakfast and lunch as per my instructions.

The Dress

I love love love my dress. It was perfect for the venue and for me. I tried it on in a size 18 and it took a little convincing to make people believe that this was the dress, but I knew it was. When I tried it on and my knees got wobbly I knew that was it!

Rehersal Dinner

Rehearsal went well, everyone knew their job and how to do it. We had a great food and very good strawberry shortcake for dessert.

Earl was a dud!

So the wedding weekend came and now I have a lot of blog updating to do! We got a new camera for the wedding so we are back in business.
We had the best weekend ever, starting with the weather.

Or not.....

By Friday evening or early Saturday morning, Hurricane Earl should be off the coast of Cape Cod. Right now, the NHC cone of error has parts of North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Maine all in it. This means that according to computer model forecasts, the storm could directly impact these areas. Having said this, the official projected path that the NHC is putting out would have Earl missing the US East Coast by about 100-150 miles. All interests on the East Coast should pay attention over the next few days.

Bring your own tarp for the inn in case the roof blows off ...............again, or atleast some big waves to watch off the coast.

10-day

Sunday
September 5, 2010

Sunny

0% Chance of Rain

75°F

For someone who has had crappy weather for almost every event in her life this is amazing.

Proms...........Rain. Homecoming Dances...............................Rain.

College graduation................rain/snow downpour. Moved into a gym. Very anticlimactic.

I also told myself I would not be the girl that checks the 10-day forecast. Oh well :)

Hopefully it will hold up!
