We have had a busy few months following the wedding. However, we are both enjoying a much needed day off work thanks to a giant snow storm.
So now a quick recap (in pictures) of the days leading up to our wedding...
1.
+Jacqueline Wheeler and +Esther Walker went on a hunt for baby white pumpkins for the table center pieces. We went to several pumpkin patches within a 10 mile radius and could only get our hands on one baby white pumpkin. When we were just about to give up hope, we stopped at a stand on the side of the road that we had passed in the beginning of our adventure. Lo and behold, it had the biggest selection of baby white pumpkins! Problem solved!

Seating guests at tables is much harder than anyone of us had initially thought. We had all of our sticky notes, color coded, moving them from paper to paper trying to find just the right spot. Just about all of the sticky notes lost their stickiness.We couldn't have done it without the help of +Joey Walker, Gary Bashaw, and +Esther Walker.

Packing up every little thing that we had put together over the past year and a half. Wow! We don't think we have ever seen the basement bedroom so messy. It was very hard for Mom to deal with the clutter. :-) Ella even assisted with packing up the room...can you spot her in the picture?

Jackie had a slight meltdown leading up to the wedding. The day before our wedding rehearsal Jackie was getting her nails done with her Mom. I called and told her some news that started with "are you sitting down". This is never a good way to start a phone conversation... I told her that we needed a new officiant, because our original officiant was not able to do the ceremony because of a health related issue (Warren is now doing fine and has fully recovered from an emergency surgery). After lots of phone calls, Esther and Bonnie, the wedding coordinator, were able to find a new officiant, Norm. Norm was a great officiant, even though he showed up in scrubs for the rehearsal (he did let us know that he would be coming from work). Everything worked out really well and we were so happy with the ceremony.
