  • This break was more like a vacation....

    Hellooooooo world! Yes, I'm still alive.  I've just been quite busy with the new school year starting.  I'm just so tired by the end of the day that I have no desire or motivation to blog. *gasp* Yes, tsk tsk Joanne.  However, after I got the message from Meg (Helllo? Earth to Joanne!), I mustered up some energy to blog for you before I head to bed tonight. 


    So....where were we?  Ahh, yes....I left you all with a post about our table toasts, the singing of Sweet Caroline, and the speeches from our close friends.  *sigh* Such fun and fond memories.  A few minutes after the speeches, it was time to change into my third and final dress.  If you recall from my Michigan wedding posts, I wore a long raspberry colored dress.  It was absolutely beautiful, and I received so many compliments that night.  I had one MAJOR problem with it though.  When I wanted to dance, I had to hold it up so I wouldn't trip. Boooo! So when I went back to Boston, I immediately searched for a new dress....one that's comfortable enough to dance in without having to worry about tripping on it....a short dress.  Surprisingly, Roger was the one who found this dress.  We were shopping around Macy's, and he picked it up off the rack.  I personally didn't like it because of how girly it was with a bow and all, but he thought it was cute. So, I tried it on, and ultimately bought it.  I know I teased you all about whether or not I was going to wear the long or short dress; however, I knew all along that I would wear my short dress! Here it is.....



    The dress is part of the Besty and Adam Collection by Linda Bernell.  It cost about $160.  It was so much fun coming out in a short party dress instead of a long evening gown.  It definitely showed my personality more.  As you can see I'm holding my bouquet, so you know what that meant....time for the bouquet toss!

    I actually didn't throw it as hard since it actually landed right in front of the ladies, but look who picked it up?  AMY - my bridesmaid and childhood friend.  I've seriously have known her since I was born, and I couldn't imagine my bouquet going to anyone else.  After we hugged, we walked back to her table where her family and her boyfriend Dave was sitting.  Dave looked at me as if I planned the whole thing. It was pretty hilarious! The whole table was laughing especially Amy's mother.


    After the bouquet toss, everyone in the room started clinking their glasses to signal us to kiss again.  My DJ told me that we should make our guests work for our kiss.  I had no idea what she was going to do, but this next part of the night was probably by far the most memorable part of the night for us and our guests....
