I'm having a hard time coming up with a way to incorporate real life happenings with wedding happenings on this here blog of mine. I missed a recap of a big weekend 2 weekends ago...and this upcoming weekend will probably be big too. Whatev, I will just make up my own rules as I go.

2 weekends ago, we attended Kevin and Greta's wedding. These two got engaged the same weekend we did back in December and we both compared notes as we were going through the planning of both weddings. So fun! It was also super fun for us to be at this wedding since this is the first time being a guest to a wedding after having been through one! I have to say, I am much more thrilled for them knowing what it is like going through it...feeling so much love from all your guests and just how fun it is in general. Jon was also in the wedding, so he was even more nostalgic, I think.

Here is the thing on the picture front though. I was trying a lot of the manual settings out on my camera during this wedding (I'm trying to get better! Especially at indoor photos), and a lot of the pictures didn't turn out that well :( I only got one semi-decent pic of the newlyweds. The rest are blurry or have a lot of noise in them.


Like at most weddings, I/we were dancing machines. Jon lost most of his ensemble by the end of the night, save for his undershirt (and pants of course!) and we gladly lounged around at home for the entire day on Sunday.

Now let's backtrack a little bit...

During the break between the ceremony and reception, I headed with Gina, Todd and Cooper to Todd's parents' pumpkin patch, Anderson's Pleasant Patch Pumpkins. They live on the land also, so we hung in the house most of the time, but we ventured out for a little while with Coop to enjoy the weather. (It was SO nice 2 Saturdays ago!) We were a tad overdressed in our wedding ensembles to be traipsing around a pumpkin patch, but what are you gonna do? I got some good shots of Cooper with the pumpkins I think. Fall pictures are so great...and then throw a baby in the mix and you really can't go wrong.



..And of course, Madison was pissed she had to stay in the house couldn't run around the pumpkin patch, terrorizing all the customers. She was probably extra pissed that I was taunting her while taking this picture on the outside where she so badly wanted to be. Poor little Madison.
