2 Minutes and 23 seconds

Here is the whole 2:23 ceremony documented in photographs.

First, the judge that kept saying ,"You do know this is a short cermony?"

"Marriage is good and wonderful...."

Burke, "I do."

Stacey, "I do."

and...husband and wife!

"You can pick up your certificate here from 9-5 on Monday through Friday."



Live happily ever after.....

More of Amy's Pictures...

Love love love the bow tie. Love love love the man. (Look at the line of people waiting to get married...)


Of course, we were first in line....








Amy's Pictures from the Wedding

Amy posted pictures on Facebook and I stole them. They are so cute!

So thankful for these sweet friends!

Scratch That

So I went to Target today and found this crib bumper on clearance for $8!

Pottery Barn's crib set for $150 is definitely out of the running.

So now I will use some of that fabric and make a crib skirt.
They had hot pink, bright blue, and solid green colored crib sheets for $7, so that will cover all the colors.

Hopefully, the stripes and dots will make the baby so dizzy that he or she will sleep through the night.
If I only had a sewing machine...cough cough....

Baby's Room Possibilities.....

So this is the bedding I'm probably going to get....except it will have CHOCOLATE stripes. And if its a girl then we will throw in some hot pink fabrics here and there and if its a boy...bright blue. Its plain and simple (which is very Burke and Stacey) but without knowing the gender (sorry Sarah, although your frustration is slightly entertaining to me because, well, I am a mean person), we have to go pretty neutral and I will not do anything with a zoo or jungle or ABCs theme...or ugly pastel colors. BLAH!

So, today I went to the craft store and found this fun fabric with all the colors we may need...brown, hot pink, bright blue, and some green. It is bright and cheery even though it doesn't look like it in this picture.

And with the fun stripes...some polka dots! This may be for the changing table cover thing or a little trim around the stripes.

Now this fabric will go on this shelf (AKA the baby's soon to be transformed into a little wardrobe because Mommy has to use your closet) shelf. The fabric will be a curtain and we will hang any clothes or clutter I want to hide. More pictures of the shelf/wardrobe transformation to come. We are slow moving these days. Well, I am slow moving these days. I am still waiting for the 2nd trimester bliss. I still have the 2nd trimester blaughh (that was meant to be a throw up sound but I don't know how to spell a throw up sound).


And for the blue and pink baskets we already have...I bought some brown rick rack to wrap around and tie in the brown theme a bit.

And the latest basket purchase, big bright green ones. They will get some brown rick rack too and they will go on the "wardrobe".
And this is a little side note. Joann's had baseball card frames on sale for 60% off! I was excited. Burke was eh. But I love personal things framed and hung. Much more meaningful than store bought artwork. Burke has 1800 billion baseball cards from his childhood all stored in a box. I just thought it would be fun to frame them and if its a boy they can go into the baby's room. If its a girl, they can go in the baby' room. Or the kitchen. I mean, 60% off.
