Our Wedding Day

Today is our 6th anniversary.  I wasn't blogging yet 6 years ago, so I've decided to do a wedding post in honor of our anniversary.

Our wedding was on May 13th, 2006, in my hometown of Mount Vernon, Washington, in the church I grew up in (Emmanuel Baptist).









 
The reception was held in the church gymnasium.  The plus side was it saved a ton of money since rental is free for members (my parents).  The downside is they don't allow alcohol OR dancing.  We still had a great time, but if I had it to do over again I'd probably have the reception somewhere else so we could dance.

Our cake.  Each layer was a different flavor, except the bottom and top were the same.

Aruba, here we come! 

After the reception, we went by limo straight to a hotel near the airport, spent the night and flew to Aruba the next morning for our honeymoon.

Transfer Anniversary

Today is the 5-year anniversary of my embryo transfer!  5 years ago today I became pregnant with my girls (I wrote about it in more detail a few years ago).  It was a Saturday that year, also. Olivia and Kayley at 3 days post conception (wish I knew which one was which): And Olivia and Kayley 5 years later: That photo is actually a few weeks old.  I tried to take one for today and this is what I ended up with: {Sigh}

The Girls' Room

So it's kids' rooms this week at Kelly's Korner Home Tours.  Unfortunately, we haven't finished the girls' room make-over.  We recently transitioned from toddler beds to twins.  I would have loved to get bunk beds to save space, but the twin beds were given to us by friends of Paul's parents so we're making do.  They were wood-colored (oak, maybe?) so we painted them white.  It was challenging to figure out how to arrange their furniture because of the alcove/nook thingie on one side.  I couldn't do the obvious two beds perpedicular to the wall with a nightstand in between configuration, so I had to compromise. There are lots of finishing touches still to be done.  We need to replace their dresser, get a nightstand, put up a shelf (ledge) or two and some wall art, and curtains.  We're also going to paint.  I've had my heart set on purple for a long time, which is why I chose this bedding with some purple but not too much, but now...
