Some pics I took a couple weeks ago

I've been really busy the past week, with Alyssa starting school, deciding she wanted to join the cross country team, then changed her mind, and joined band instead. Well, luckily I don't have to pick her up from school every afternoon anymore. Especially with gas prices as high as they are.

Enough rambling. It's been over a week since my last entry, and tonight I am just going to post some pics of Anne Marie playing with a mirror my dh bought at a yardsale for $12 long before our little baby was thought of. She loves the mirror:

My Redneck Wedding

Copied and pasted from my myspace blog (sorry guys, I'm lazy like that!).


Gary and I got married July 11 by the JOP in downtown Allegan. The whole affair, including marriage license, cost us less than $40. They gave us a cute little wedding cake before the ceremony.


The bride wore black shorts, a mandarin orange nursing tank, her black maya wrap, and a pair of black teva flip-flops. The groom was dashing in his camo Old Navy shorts, orange t-shirt, and brown leather Old Navy flip-flops.


Yeah, we're a little redneck. So what. It works for us.



My biodad, his girlfriend, Ashton, and Anne Marie were all in attendance. Dad and his gf went home after the ceremony. Gary, the kidlets and I walked over to the local pub with our little wedding cake for some celebratin'. We ordered two giant draft beers and drank them while we devoured the cake. It was very yummy. I love cool-whip icing. Anne Marie tasted it and agrees it's the bomb!

After finishing our beers and cake, Gary and the boy went to the computer store next to the bar (that's my hubby, lover of all things computer!). I wore the sleeping baby into the "Rock Store" (yes, they sell ROCKS) and had the lady who owns it make me a really cool nursing necklace with an orange donut shaped polished rock. Anne Marie doesn't care for it, yet. Eh, even if she never uses it, it looks cool and only cost me five bucks.
