Even Cheaper Gas

A gas update:

I heard of gas in the area being sold for $1.99 a gallon! I however was lucky enough to fill up for $2.08 a gallon. That ain't bad! That ain't bad at all! Keep falling gas prices!

On a side note, I'm relieved to know that my parents have landed safe and sound back on U.S. soil and are now back in their own beds for tonight. Whew. Can't wait to see pictures of their trip to China.

Pro Wedding Pics

We are so in love with our professional wedding pictures. They turned out so well and will look forward to looking at them... a lot! I know I posted recently with the website to view all these pictures, but I couldn't help but post some.
This one is one of my favorites. Kortnee just has this artistic eye that makes beautiful images.

Steph did my make up for the day. We had gone to Sephora earlier in the week to try out some new colors and got a trial done. Steph learned the techniques she needed to transform me to a beautiful bride. She did a fabulous job as I felt like a model.
This one was in the limo on the way to meet Brent for the first time. I was alone in there (besides the photographer) and...I had a moment.
I love this shot because it looks like we rolled in a background! With the perfect clouds and blue sky down to the steamboats in the river, it all looks fake...but it's not! We had a perfect day weather wise. Couldn't have asked for better weather for a wedding day.

I love this one not just for the jumping aspect (because that in itself is a really cool shot), but the fact that Brent is the calm, cool and collected one in the front and everyone behind him is acting out is so Brent. Sounds so mullet like. Ha!
The girls are giving a little 'tude. Well, I am anyway. And I have a waist!
Now this picture looks like it jumped out of a magazine or something. The colors are so perfect and surreal. Another favorite. Actually, I could probably say that about almost all the photos. "Perfect!"
This has our program, our cupcake (which I didn't eat any of...or even saw the cupcake table) and our rings.

Even Cheaper Gas

Okay, so there's an update from last week's post. I bought gas today for $2.31 per gallon. I am still in shock.

They're Here!

The pictures are finally here! And it has been worth the wait. They are gorgeous! Last night our photographer hosted a photo viewing party. We sat around ate popcorn and got a first look at the pictures. I swear after every photo I kept saying "I love this picture!" Brent was about to zip my mouth shut. They were so fabulous!

For those who don't have a whole day to dedicate to looking at photos (there's at least 700 pictures), you can look at our photographer's blog for a teaser. http://simplytimelessphotography.com/blog/

Cheap Gas



I am loving watching the gas prices just fall! Yesterday I filled up my tank at $2.65 per gallon. It cost me a total of $30. Holy Cheap Gas Batman! Isn't it sad that I'm that excited over $2.65. Crazy.
Remember when we could pump gas for under a $1 per gallon? And we'd fill the tank with $10?! And I could actually pay for gas in cash. Sigh...

Can't Get Enough



















Natalie showing her team spirit for the Cleveland Browns.


















Uncle Brent showing Natalie how to watch an Ohio State football game. Touchdown!



















Natalie...what are you drinking?! Is that your dad serving you a Lite beer by Miller??


















Look at that face...what's not to love?


















Aunt Cindy and her favorite niece...and then moments later, she threw up on me. Total throw ups on Aunt Cindy for the weekend: 4.

Natalie's Dedication




Brent and I are new to the roles of Uncle and Aunt, but so far we're loving the job duties. Megan and Kevin invited us to Natalie's dedication. She was a perfect baby and looked beautiful in her dress. She was wearing a bonnet that will become a hankie for her wedding day.
We love you Natalie!
