Dads (and mom’s)

Dad’s are really cool. I have to thank mine for all the stuff he’s helped us with the past year…water heater replacement, furnace issues, bathroom remodel, watching our cat (thanks mom). Too many other things to mention. I love you.

Happy Holidays!

Mom made me do this…

Finished bathroom!!!

It was a 2+ year process — in my defense I did have a couple other projects interupt my progress. Much of the credit goes to my dad for all the time and effort he put in on it. It’s super nice. Check it out!

Excellence Resort

Well, we´ve been here at the resort for a day and a half now. Wow, this place is amazing and our special add’on’s for the Excellence Club are amazing. Thursday night we´re having a private dinner on the beach. Saturday night we´re having a marine wellness spa package and a 50 minute massage following that. Then Sunday morning we´re having a champagne breakfast in bed. It did cost a pretty penny but i would wish this upon anyone. For those who haven´t been to a all’inclusive, please do so. You won´t forget it. Sorry for any typos, these keyboards are a lot different than the americanized versions. Can´t wait to share the photos.

Wedding

The big day has finally come and gone. Paul and I will still be posting on here. Just not too much about weddings anymore. A million thanks go out to all those you supported and celebrated with us on Saturday night. It means a lot to us that we have so many good friends and family surrounding us. I had a blast throughout the whole experience. It was fun being a bride. We will post photos after the honeymoon.

Wedding Day

Paul — Sat, 13 Sep 2008 05:53:32 +0000

We’re officially 7 days away for the big event. We have to thank everyone who has helped out the past year with planning our wedding. We’re looking forward to seeing everyone and spending some time with you all.

Bike

Here’s a picture of our new bike in the correct color.

Cakes

Paul — Sat, 19 Jul 2008 21:34:06 +0000

We purchased our cakes (cupcakes) on Monday of last week and talked about our ceremonial cake. It’s going to be something unique for sure. Everyone will just have to wait. The invitations will be going out soon so keep an eye out for those everyone!

It’s getting close!

Iowa Speedway

Paul — Sun, 13 Jul 2008 04:16:24 +0000

I got to do the second most exhilirating thing in my life today (first being proposing to Caitlin). Victory Motorcycles had a demo ride at the Iowa Speedway in Newton. As nervous as I was, there was no way I could pass that opportunity up. I rode three bikes with the Kingpin being my favorite. I got that one up to 75 mph on the straightaway. That was awesome!

Wedding Day

Paul — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 22:08:01 +0000

It’s fast approaching. Some exciting news is we bought our wedding bands. They are both awesome. I can’t wait to wear mine and not because of the ring.

Also, I’m in the process of putting together a list of people who might want to golf on Friday at Toad Valley. I imagine we could get a nice weekday rate and it will nice to blow off some nerves. Email me if you are interested. I would like to book them in August sometime.

We met with the caterer and the reception venue again yesterday to give the caterer a sense of where tables would be and serving ideas. It took longer to get out there from work than the meeting took. One more task off the list.

On another note, a very old friend stopped by last night. He’s been living in Kansas for the last 8-10 years and he mentioned he might be moving back to Altoona. He also offered to let me drive his Harley Heritage Classic — but I graciously declined, this time. I need to build some riding confidence before I take out someone’s $20k motorcycle.
