Back!!! recap & Pic's


Hey Ladies- I'm back as a Mrs. Still seems so un-real to me I keep saying can you believe we are married.Thursday nails, hair and relaxing mode, really had not kicked in yet that I was getting married in a few days. glad my sister was here to keep me calm- My cousin arrived and was a life saver. she completed my gift box, corrected my table numbers and got all the deco for the arch. YEA!! for her. Friday- woke up, had breakfast, ran to the bank and picked up my dress. back to the house to load up the cars by this time my Lil Brother had arrived I was so glad he made it. called the hotel to see when we could check into the presidential suite this is where the rehearsal dinner will be and also my girls and I stayed there Friday night- Hotel says it's a go so we are off... When I say time went so fast. it's almost like a blur.. All checked in food and cake arrive, finish setting up and people started coming on time LOL  We only had 2 1/2 hrs for the dinner and then we were off to the rehearsal and that's when my cousin took over, it seems everyone wants to be a coordinator at rehearsal, DH almost lost it then, after rehearsal the guys go off to their site out and my girls and I back to our room. Saturday the BIG day... I awoke early and I took in the moment. showered ate breakfast- hair stylist arrived and started on my hair, make up arrived and started on my girls, then we switch photographer comes and starts with pictures. DH sent over my gift which was a book he put together of pictures and wording that jumped off the page. I was no good had to have makeup touched up. Now it's time to move to the ceremony location and get in my dress. this was just next door. and I'm off now it's 11:00 am wedding is at noon.  I get in my dress, shoes and my son knocks at the door when he waked in I couldn't hold it anymore  It was time to go downstairs. little things that I remember as i'm waiting to walk they are struggling with runner all I remember saying is Geeze  just pull it- and we should have practiced this last night my Son Mom calm down it's ok... Some might remember me saying I didn't know what song I was walking down on it was a surprised from DH- it even said this on the program the song was Johnny Gill "You for me"  when I looked at DH he could hardly look at me. I was in awww momentMy surprise and gift to him was my tattoo with his name "BO" and a butterfly I love butterflies,  he saw his gift at the reception when he removed my garter he was SO surprise as he never thought I would do a tattoo... All in all it was grand and I'm excited everyday knowing we are married, We just got back from our cruise to Bahamas and Grand Turks, I slept so good as my brain needed a rest. Here are a few pics that people took and sent me, can't wait to get ours back. Take away Live in the moment, remember to steal a little time during the wedding for the two of you, it really does go by way to fast
