hello everyone! i have been back from the honeymoon for almost a week and still havent unpacked! but i DID get the pictures from the cerimony uploaded to a picturetrail. the wedding was WONDERFUL!! everyone had a great time! calvin is a writer and he wrote the entire cerimony, his brother performed it at our house we had 110 guests.

the link is to the same one i sent to family and friends its pics my uncle took. on the left side it has a 'thumbnail strip' you can scroll down there and click on a specific picture if you dont want to flip through the whole thing. we still havent got the ones from the photographer! i cant wait to see his! the last 2 pictures are ones he took

i will post a few of the hawaii pics soon. it was AWESOME!!!

on the bandfront~(have been unfilled .4 since mid may and didnt want a fill till i got back from honeymoon) right before the wedding it had started to tighten up again, i thought from stress- but my throat had gotten REALLY dry from the climate i live in, in humid hawaii it got better. now that i am back home in the 'high desert' we have our 13 gallon a day humidifier going 24-7 and my nose throat is DRY again which is making my band show some restriction (i have had a few random hick-ups.) i have an appt for 8-1 for a fill, .1 cc. i need it! for Breakfast i had a 3 egg veggie scramble...mushrooms, onions, cilantro, bacon, and spinach. i ate it all without 1 sip of anything! i have to use veggies as a filler cause i can EAT.

marc: thanks for the great advice!

kathy!: your silly! thanks for viewing even with dial-up!

funnydudies- thanks! i had a idea in my head of what i wanted. a rustic wedding, when we found this house, we LOVED it from the begining but then with all the big rock and stage setting next door we knew not only were we buying the house but we were REALLY gonna start our lives here!

paula- that is really neat and i appreciate everyone who was here for me! not only did ya'll see my and calvins relationship begin and blossom- you all were here for me when i was leaving a BAD relationship.

babs- thanks for coming out to post, call me if you get a chance. my home number is the same!

THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE!!!

Awww... Shelly... You look so beautiful! What a fantastic setting for a wedding! What a journey you have had on your way to love and now wedded bliss... Congratulations and Wishes to you and your husband for a very happy future!

Shelly, You and Calvin are gorgeous and your back yard is a beautiful setting…years down the road you’ll be looking at the mound telling your kids all the details.

Thanks for sharing the pics, I LOVE the last one. I remember your little mom, she looks so happy.

The best to you both!

Grats Shelly. You were a lovely bride and your hubby looks like such a nice guy. You say the ceremony was at your house? I'm so jealous! That's my kind of homestead! Best wishes to you and your hubby.

Congratulations!! You look great!
