Just how do they pull together a wedding in 4 months?

Rehearsal & Dinner with Brother Jon

Rose Petals, Freeze Dried vs. Fresh

For the ceremony site, we are going to have two rows of rose petals one on either side, to denote the aisle.  Now there have been any debates online about fresh rose petals vs freeze dried.  I would like to heard from those who have used rose petals before, what…

The hardest wooden puzzle by far

This whole week I have been working on the largest, most detailed and most complicated of all of our centerpiece puzzles.  The St. Petersberg Cathedral in Russia is the largest at  18 inches by 20 inches by 25 inches.  The intricate pieces require you to glue other pieces onto them. …

Engagement Photos!!!

Soooo excited that Scott posted some of our photos on his blog this evening!  I told him I’ve never been so excited to see photos of myself.  I look like a goof in some, but so does Jeff in others – I suppose that’s just us.  I’ve swiped the pix…

Oh I am so happy.  I have finally found what I want.  I have found a tungsten carbide ring with a blue carbon fiber inlay.  From the reviews of the ring it should be a wonderful purchase.  I am glad Jenn found it for me.  I am very excited and…
