Hi Rachel...I don't know if you remember me or not. I'm a friend of Judy's. Congratulations on your wedding! Looks beautiful. I had a winter wedding a year ago. It's a great time to get married because then you have all winter to hole up in your house and ignore all the work you need to do outside come spring!
It is fun to read your blog! I am glad life is getting back to "normal" for you. Though now "normal" is life as a married woman:):)
Hi Mimi, yes, I do remember you. Thanks for your comment! We had a beautiful wedding day and I am so happy. I was reading a bit of your blog and said a prayer for you guys.
