I gotta tell ya, it's been amazing! We both feel very lucky to have each other, and everyday is a new adventure. I love you!!!

Our Wedding, November 5, 2005


Our wedding was held at the botanical gardens in Largo, Florida and it was completely candlelight. The theme was something like a midsummers night dream.


my little sisters were my flowergirls...


my colors were cream and mocha, of course :) My bridesmaids weren't just bridesmaids, they each had a title, such as Matron of Fortitude and Matron of Encouragement, each name standing for their personalities and qualities I loved about them...p.s. the one to the left is my sister, she was my matron of honor...


My dad and step-dad both walked me down the isle...


I cut off a piece of my moms wedding dress and had it sewn to the inside of mine, so it was like I was "wearing" her wedding dress :)


We had 2 songs for our first dance, the first was Adam Sandler's "Growing old with you" and a more traditional song by Etta James "At Last"


and now yesterday...we had a very relaxing afternoon and stopped in at the Florida Estates Winery in St. Petersburg...
