Santa Fe, A Wedding, & 30 Weeks

Two weekends ago Cassidy and I traveled to Santa Fe, NM for his sister's wedding. Neither of us had been to NW that we were aware of (possibly a drive through when we were young) and so we were looking forward to spending time in a new place. We also were very aware of the fact that it was our last trip together as a family of two and so took the time to really enjoy each other's company without distraction.

The wedding was a beautiful event on a hillside with the sunset as a backdrop followed by a lovely reception. Cass & I enjoyed spending time with his family and getting so many words of wisdom and advice about our newest addition. The love and attention from all the family was overwhelming at times, but much appreciated. Noelle is one loved little girl and she has so many people excited for her arrival. It's further amplified that she is the first of the next generation on both of our sides of the family.

Below are pictures of us from the rehearsal dinner and the wedding. I will have to get permission from the bride before I post her pictures here...but she looked absolutely stunning...I can tell you that much!

Amanda,
Really love your blog and reading your insights! I totally identify with the Happy feeling. I had it so much while pregnant with Cassidy and after he was born I'd cry out of shear joy! I like to believe it is more than hormones!

It was quite an interesting post. Thanks my friend for this write up. At a local event space NYC I also will be attending a royal inspired wedding reception on this weekend. The wedding has a grand budget and will be organized by international party planning team. I just can’t wait to be the part of that ceremony.
