Monday Memories

Yes, I realize it's not Monday.. almost Wednesday in fact. I have been a little busy to say the least.

I have one last wedding post I wanted to share and it's video of our 1st dance. Patrick and I took numerous dance lessons for this dance and even practice up until our reception. We were in front of the house finishing up pictures before the reception and Patrick stopped me to run through it one last time. He was so nervous, it was cute. He was a great sport for taking lessons and even agreeing to do this in front of 250 people.

Volume Up!



We practiced the lift but later changed my mind in fear of ripping my dress.

LOVE IT!!! For someone who was nervous Patrick looked like he was loving it. Such a beautiful memory. You and Patrick really looked like you were having the time of your lives! xoxoxo

The lift would have been awesome, but I totally understand why you wouldn't do it. He was such a trooper to do that, I don't think I could have talked Dave into that. Thank you for sharing, I can only imagine how painful it is to watch for you. I know I've said it before, but your strength is amazing.

Thanks for sharing, Erynn. I knew this must be what you were talking about. I'd always wanted to see it; it was as awesome as I thought it would be.

I can't imagine how difficult it must have been for you to watch and record. Thank you again for sharing it with us.

Jill said...

I was so full of joy, watching him watch you and watching you have such a great time... I don't know how you do this. These memories are so real. It's not like years ago when people didn't do videos or pictures for every event... if you're like me, you have pictures of everything you've done. The memories are so alive in these pictures and in your videos.

I came back to you blog after watching that video and just busted into tears. My husband thinks I'm crazy but I just feel the emotions in your every post.

You are so so so strong. So strong.
