Today has been the first day I've been able to sleep in (and it is only 8 haha) during the past two weeks! The week leading up to the wedding, not only were Will and I still in DE frantically trying to finish up work, but Will got hit with the worst flu ever. I'm talk about 103 fever for 4 days straight. As you might guess it made trying to get work done a little hard, but we got him better for the wedding so that was good. Then three days before the wedding with all of our stuff, a groomsmen, the maid of honor, and my papa bear in tow, we drove the 5 hour drive (this time closer to 10 with all the stops at Lowe's we had to do haha) to our mountain!
We had hoped to be able to move into the house when we got up, but that didn't happen. For the next 3 days we frantically built and stained 12 picnic tables from scratch, went through tons of boxes to find all the decorations, created some more decorations, baked 8 apple pies (4 red and 4 tart green) 1 blueberry and 1 mixed berry, made apple pie moonshine, and about a thousand other things! But thanks to everyones help we some how got it done!
The morning of the wedding was all doom and gloom outside, I'm talking 15mph winds, 40 degrees and not a ray of sunshine in the sky. We thought it best moving the dance floor into the house so people could stay a little warm at least. We even thought about having the ceremony inside, in fear of being rained out. However, as I was getting ready about an hour before the ceremony was to start: bam, the sun came out with all of its glory, and everything fell into place.
We are so lucky that our fabulous photographer and dear friend Megan went straight to work getting our photos ready. She has given us a little sampling and I can hardly wait to see more!
