My wedding according to Instagram
This was my wedding day. Bits and pieces of it, anyway. It was perfect, in my eyes. 1, 3: Lanterns that we hung everywhere in the sanctuary. 2. The altar. 4. My beautiful, beautiful bouquet! 5. Our rings. 6. Owl cake toppers! 7. A beautiful pie 8. The amazing cake that my aunt made for me 9. Cakes in jars! Me with my wedding-day makeup on. Gosh, I wish I could go back and re-live the wedding part of the day. It was wonderful. I was nervous as heck beforehand, to the point where I might have thrown up if I had eaten anything, but once it came time to…

1. Boots, orange tights, and one of my favorite dresses (from Sarah With a Bow) = fall attire! It’s getting cold enough here that I can’t go without tights any more. 2. This belt makes me feel like Wonder Woman. 3. Favorite tights, favorite new shoes (My first Modcloth Purchase. LOVE.) 4. I made Milk Tarts for the first time under the teaching of a wonderful friend.

Cookies that Mr. Owl made. SO good. 7, 8: I love Mr. Owl’s socks.…

Our first (we may travel up to his brother, who took these, to have more done) engagement photo session was taken at/around the park where we initially both really wanted to get married.

Minus the whole he-touches-her-and-she-dies bit. I hope you…

Engaged: a preview picture
We had a few engagement photos taken yesterday by Mr. Owl’s older brother. And all I can think when I look at them is that I am marrying the most attractive man on the planet. I take one look at him and all of my organized thoughts leave in a jumble. follow me on: bloglovin | chictopia | facebook | twitter | pinterest

Thank you for taking my pictures, thinking I’m beautiful whether I’m in jeans with no makeup or a dress and all prettied up, for being as much of a Lord of the Rings nerd as I am, for being silly with me, for knowing just what to do when I cry, for playing Mario and Donkey Kong and pretending we’re five, for praying for me, for protecting me, for being honest, for being kind, and for having the perfect Mr. Rochester-(soon to be Aragorn-) esque hair. You are without a doubt the most interesting, wonderful, hilarious, and attractive man I know,…
