Baby Videos

Friday, July 20th, 2007

We have had our little Maisie with us for almost a whole month now. It has been quite the adventure. I think with Brodie I was just so excited to have a dog that I overlooked the annoying puppy stages: house training, chewing, whining, etc. Maisie is pretty good though. She is learning quickly; if only her bladder would grow just a little bit more so I didn’t have to take her out every hour. Brodie is such a good big brother. From the first day home he has been teaching her how to be a good dog. He looks after her while they are playing in the yard. They just love to play together. Poor Neo (the cat) must feel outnumbered now. Maisie would just sit there and bark at him for hours if we let her. Now we are just waiting to get our sod in the backyard so we don’t have dirty puppy feet running through our house.

Here are several videos. The first ones are from the first few days home, and the last one was taken within the past few days. Maisie’s ears have popped up, and she grew into her big buddha belly she had when we got her.

I’m also in the process of updating the photo album with more pictures, so check that out. It should be up today.

Our Home

Saturday, July 7th, 2007

We have been married now for almost a month and have been in our home for a week and a half now. Well we have been working hard to get our house in working order. And since I cleaned it before we left for the houseboat for a week, we decided to make a video of the current status of our home for you all to see. Enjoy.

Please register and comment :) And you can also expect a video of Brodie and Maisie after we return from our vacation.

Our Wedding Day

Monday, July 2nd, 2007

Well I have been meaning to put my thoughts about my wedding day down for a while now, so there is no better time than the present.

It was truly a beautiful day. I was actually able to sleep that night once I put in my Friends DVD. I woke up nice and early to take my shower and give my hair time to dry. We got to the Noriega House and from there everything went so quickly. I got my hair and makeup done there, and once that was finished, it was time to get dressed. Once I was in my gown with the veil, shoes, and the works on, I really felt like a bride. I loved my dress that day. Once everyone was all dressed, I really loved how all the dresses looked together. It was so beautiful. We took a lot of pictures as we were waiting for 1 o’clock to come. I wasn’t as nervous as I thought I would be. At least not until I had to walk out the door.

Walking down the aisle was a very surreal experience. It was all I could do not to burst into tears. You spend all morning doing all that you can not to think about it, and then all of a sudden there you are walking down the aisle. You feel like you are being overwhelmed with emotion, joy being the predominant one. I just focused on Cale so much that once I got to the altar, I looked around at all our guests in awe.

The rest of the day went by so quickly. We took more pictures after the ceremony, and then Cale and I were announced for the reception. I was able to eat a little bit of food, and then Cale and I made our way through the guests to say hi. We tried to make sure that we talked to each person, but my biggest regret from the day is that I think a few people were overlooked. We were pulled all over the place all day long. I actually enjoyed the dancing more than I thought I would. Everything just turned out so beautiful, and even though things were not exactly according to plan, I could have cared less. I was just so happy to be married and to have our closest family and friends there celebrating with us. My favorite moments were the wedding kiss, our minutes alone after the ceremony spent in disbelief that we were married, Emma picking up her flower petals that she had dropped down the aisle (“I can’t pick them all up!”), and our farewell dance to Everything by Michael Buble.

Truly the best day of my life (so far), and I am so greatful for all our dear family and friends for their everlasting support and love.
