Ah... was it a year ago? Well my wonderful husband and I are approaching our one year anniversary--- So many things have happened in the recent past. It feels like we have moved a million times! First we had to sell Hubby's Condo, then move into my apartment- then endure the horrible commute to work while we looked for a house. The house hunt was horrible, lasting or months and months- meanwhile I got a new job in a great school district and was busy planning the wedding. We finally found a great house after putting many offers on the "ones that got away". Then came the wedding. We were married on the cheesiest day ever to marry 7/7/07 (at 7 pm---- I was 27). I am kinda anti-wedding and have a hard time rationalizing spending tens of thousands of dollars on one day. I tried to keep things simple. We were married at the Greenbank Mill in Wilmington Delaware. We had the wonderful ceremony in the meadow accompanying the Mill and the reception was inside. We had a great Bluegrass trio that really set the tone for the rustic vibe I was going for. The wedding was small about 45 people, which I felt was a perfect number. We had great BBQ food-- Ribs, Chicken, grilled veggies, sliced BBQ Beef and grilled fruit. Everyone said it was the best wedding food ever. I made all the decorations--- paper source paper flowers, there were party poppers at each table, wax lips, and bibs for everyone to wear.
The cake was great. I got what I liked; chocolate cake with chocolate filling! Tough luck if you don't like chocolate, its my wedding! I was deeeee-licious.
I was exhausted and exhilarated at the same time (is that possible?) It was a wonderful day with a wonderful man! (and alot of craaaaaaaaazy Hubbards)
