Four Years and Counting

I don't really talk about my husband too much on here, per his request. We've been together for 7 years and it is amazing how much our lives have changed over that time period. We started off living in the city, going out on dates at our favorite spots (some of which have gone out of business). We then each lived with our parents for a year while saving up to buy a house and get married. We found a house in our wonderful town and have lives here for almost 5 years. This Thursday, were celebrating our 4th wedding anniversary. By request, I would like to share some photos from our wedding.


All of my bridesmaids with our beautiful flowers

With my mom and brothers

We got married on June 12, 2010 St. Mary's church in Mokena with the reception following at Dinolfo's in Mokena.
We hired a bagpiper to play us out
With the maid of honor (my cousin) and best man (husband's brother)

It was a beautiful summer day and only rained when we had planned to do outdoor photos.



The Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup a few days before our wedding and we changed our entrance song to the Chelsea Dagger classic.


In the trolley 

That time I "iced" my husband by hiding a smirnoff ice in my garter. It was very "of the times."


 I couldn't be happier than to have married the best match for me. He embraces my dorkiness and loves me for the person I am. He's a wonderful father to Patsy and Pepper. Cheers to the years we've been married, and to many, many more.
