Just a few things have changed since I last posted. My name, address and marital status would rank among the most important:)
I'll post a few of my favorite pictures from the wedding and honeymoon, and then I'll add a few of our apartment as it is this weekend.
I am so thankful for our friends and family who helped us make the ceremony exactly what we wanted. The whole day will forever be in my mind as the most beautiful and meaningful day of my life. Thank you to EVERYONE who came and supported our beginning!
Here, I'm pulling out the "nanny voice" (as Harrison calls it) to tell him that he can not have any cake until I get word that he has eaten his vegetables. He told me that I was the bride and not a nanny and that he was going to have cake no matter what.
I win! He's mine!
I have one major complaint about our reception. It went by WAY TOO FAST for us to even get CLOSE to spending enough time with our guests. There are so many people that we didn't even get to greet, and many more that I only got to give a quick hug. I feel really sad about that, but I loved seeing everyone there! It was the most amazing feeling in the world to have nearly everyone in our lives in the same place at the same time. All the different people in our lives came together for cake and dancing! Thank you all so much!
Then it was off to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic!
Our room was lovely!
If you look closely, you can see me at the edge of the pool on top. This pool was right outside our door and we spent most of our afternoons at this pool area. It was a perfectly relaxing week. Besides the scary peacocks.
Every night we ate at a different exotic restaurant. Luckily for me, each of these exotic restaurants served some sort of potato/bread/steak combination and I was able to find something to eat :) For Adam, it was a dream since he loves fancy-schmancy food and trying new things.
Oh, melt. What a handsome guy!
We returned to New York last Sunday, tired, but ready to get the house set up. I thought Monday and Tuesday would be spent shlepping all over the tri-state area hunting for bedroom furniture and then subsequently setting it up, all the while sleeping on the floor on the one piece of furniture we owned, a mattress. But when we walked in from the airport, Adam told me to take the luggage into the bedroom and ALL THE FURNITURE WAS ALREADY HERE!! It was my wedding present! There was also a giant new tv in the living room which we call Adam's wedding present:) So as of this weekend, most everything is in place. We still need to hang several pictures (the walls are depressingly bare) but everything else is done!
This one is for Mr. & Mrs. Sloat...here is my Mr. Wonderful with his new tools! They have had a HUGE workout this week putting together all the new bookshelves and storage options that I brought home.
All right, it has taken me over an hour to post all these pictures, so I really hope everyone enjoyed them. Again, I want to thank everyone who was a part of our wedding for everything that they did. I'm going to go enjoy a Sunday afternoon with my husband now.
Somewhere between the moon and New York,
Lauren Mott
PS....Hopefully we'll be legally married in NY within the week....hopefully.
