Oh yes I am still recovering from the best St. Patrick’s Day wedding bash ever! What a great time, our home is definitely set up to handle a serious party, even in sleet! I wish the weather could have been in the 70’s but the snow was no match for this bash. We made the best of it and thanks to my family owning several tarps, we tented as many areas as we could…lol. We had a heated tent, plenty of alcohol, more desserts than the eye could see, a photo booth, a jamming dance floor surrounded by the world’s best people. It was more than Dave and I could ever dream. It was truly an amazing show of all of the love that David and I have in our life. We are abundant! For all the AMAZING family and friends who helped us pull this bash off – thank

So proud to document this moment in my life Recently we had our engagement photos taken and we could not feel more blessed to have such a great set of portraits of ourselves. Check out our Brooklyn Bridge Portraits from Judie Ann Photography. She was amazing to work with. David and I met online in December of 2007 and pretty much fell in love instantly. We make a great team and when we set our minds to something – watch out. On New Year’s Eve 2009 we set our minds to weight loss. We had both been over weight our whole lives and for the first time in my life I had met someone who knew exactly how I felt and gave me the motivation to get it done – finally. Without David by my side this would have never happened and I could never say thank you
