Happy 5th Anniversary Honey!


5 years ago tonight, on the night of a blue moon, we stood outside in front of our family and friends and vowed to love and honor each other for as long as we both shall live. It was a magical foggy night in Newport (nothing like this picture) and was one of the happiest nights of my life. Not only was I marrying a wonderful person with a kind heart but I was marrying my best friend.

This week I dug out our old wedding album and so many memories came flooding back over me. Our wedding was the biggest and best party we will ever throw! The food was delicious (not that I got to eat any of it that night), the music so personal (thanks to Anna, Dad and Joe), the wine was flowing, the crowd was dancing the night away and it was wonderful to have all that love under one tent. All those months of stress came together to create one very special party....a party just for you and I.

I love you S and can't wait to spend our "Wooden" Anniversary in the wooden seats of Fenway Park. After the game we are off to our favorite Indian Restaurant for a lovely dinner.....I can't wait! Tomorrow we are headed back to Newport for another wedding. It will be fun to be there 5 years later, pregnant with our second child and living a very different life then we were living the night we got married. Thanks for being you and for being the most loving, patient and kind husband and father. I love you very much!

Happy 5th! I hope you get a little WOOD too. :)

The benefit of getting married in your own backyard is that the bride is the last one in the house and she can stop off at the kitchen to snack on the food on her way out. and you can drink a half a bottle of champagne in the privacy of your own bedroom before you take your walk down the isle.

Here's to many more....

That's so beautiful!

We are planning our wedding right now, and I am hoping that like your wedding day, that all the stress and hard work pays off. It is SO stressful to plan a wedding, but I hope and think it is worth it.

Congrats on five wonderful years!!

It was an awesome party! After the wedding this weekend, your father said that wedding was his fourth favorite. Of course, he forgot all about his own. That that was almost 35 years ago.

Congrats to one of our favorite couples - you two were the first!
