The reason we took a newborn on a plane was so I could be the Matron of Honor in my cousin’s wedding.
I’m in love with ties on my boys! I’m working on a tie pattern as we speak (type).
Do I smell Cy’s Ties in the near future!?!?!
I gave the Matron of Honor toast, but forgot my punch line… oh well. It was supposed to go a little something like this…
Marriage advice from Kara-Noel:
#1 Don’t go to sleep angry. Because we aren’t guaranteed tomorrow!
#2 Think before you speak (especially in anger) because you can’t take back your words once they are out of your mouth.
#3 Shower together!!
Now raise your glasses to toast the bride and groom – May your marriage be modern enough to survive the times and old-fashioned enough to last forever!
Then we danced all night long! You know I love to dance!! Lucky for me, so do all my cousins!
The kiddos had their own unique opinions about the dance floor…
The wedding was awesome!
I’m so thankful for the time I got with my family. It was worth stuffing my fat postpartum a&$ in a size um-teen dress.

Thanks Lidy! Can’t wait to see you in real life again. I think it’s been over a year.
Can you believe you got me into blogging and had to teach me how to leave a comment so long ago??

You look great – love the color of the dress. It was nice to meet you in person the other night.

I love tie shirts. I had a friend make me a couple for Easton. It is a tie sewed onto a shirt. Super cute.
