new beginnings

Jess & Jarrit's wedding!

I wanted to put a picture of the happy couple here, but none of the pics karen got of them did them justice. (They were both beautiful!)

So basically I grew up with both of them, but they didn't know each other. Jess has been one of my best friends since 6th grade and Jarritt was one of my brother's best friends since I think Jarrit said 4th grade. Here's the catch. They didn't meet through us. They met on a blind date and before it happened Jess asked me if I knew him because she thought i did. I

got very excited because I most definitely did! So there's a clif notes version.

Monday night we were talking about kids and Jarritt was saying he hopes I don't have to work with any kids like he was when he was little. Then he said, "you know how i was when i was little." =)

The wedding was wonderful! It was perfect and I could definitely feel the love.

The wedding party. Yes there were 10 bridesmaids and groomsmen. It's kind-of like where's waldo. I'll give you a hint. I'm on the right.

and we took a hayride from the church to the bolduc to the reception. (maybe 15ish miles). I would say it rained the majority of the time, but it was mostly light only hard for a couple minutes and no downpours. I think we lucked out! And once we got to town the weather was beautiful for the Bolduc House pictures. So everything worked out. Jess was under so many layers you wouldn't even know she was there, but she stayed mostly dry, which is what was important. Most of the groomsmen ended up drenched so they were happy to start drying out at the bolduc. It all worked out though.

Speaking of weddings watch this I LOVE IT! No this is not Jess & Jarritt's wedding and this didn't happen there either... but it's on the topic of weddings =)

I've had my fill of gravel roads (although they all contained memories), reunions at country mart, etc.

now... i'm leaving on a jet plane won't be back for quite a while...
