One Year Later - What I remember most!


Ok so a year later while evauluting the "value" assoicated with the wedding.  I thought what do I remember most? So much of the day is a blurr of rushing around, butterflies in your stomach, very excited people its really hard to remember it all.  So here's what made my top 20 list. 


1.       Having the hair and eyelashes that my mom wanted for her dream wedding.  If left up to me I would have gotten my hair cut that day into a short sassy style.  Instead I ended up with big wedding hair – that was nice but not me.

2.       Loving my dress that fit perfectly until my mother and sister got hold of it and kept pulling it up (to cover the girls) and the straps kept falling off my shoulders.  So I ended up looking like a damn orphan walking down the aisle.

3.       Loving my shoes!!

4.       Wishing DH’s family and BFF-C  were there for the photos before the wedding

5.       My DH reaction to me at “the reveal”

6.       Thinking his suit looks better than the tux we rented…what  complete waste of money

7.       My mom’s friend taking me through the McDonalds drive thru to get something to eat so I didn’t pass out. 

8.       My Goddaughter – Grace doing all she could to steal my shine!!  Seriously she was the hit of the wedding.   

9.       Thinking….. “Did we really invite all these people to our wedding?”

10.   Wishing one of the photographers were taking pictures of DH while I walked down the aisle – he was all teary and I would have loved a shot of that!!

11.   Divorce is not an option

12.   Stuck like glue

13.   Dion’s ring not fitting and pastors face when I told him… ”hold on I can’t get this thing on!”

14.   DH’s daughters face when we jumped the broom

15.   Rocky’s singing the Lord’s Prayer

16.   My husband pouting at the reception because his feet hurt in the rented shoes he had on

17.   My husband almost blowing a gasket because my mother invited a certain person to the “after dinner”

18.   One of my friends just NOT leaving…. Really the party’s over

19.   My red shoes…did I mention my red shoes!!

20.   My rings just a bllnging!
