...The Journey Begins!

We have already had so many fun times together that have led up to this big day, and we will share some of these with you on our blog. But, there is not a better place to start than our wedding day. What a beautiful and perfect day - blue sky, green grass, the waterfall in the background, and let's not forget the bright, BRIGHT sun! Everything turned out better than we've ever dreamed of... the music, the decorations, the delicious lasagna, and watching all the kids have a blast dancing and sliding around the floor!

We are so grateful for our family and friends who helped in so many ways!! A special thank you to the best husband ever who humored me and danced his first polka with me to "If you can't do the polka, don't marry my daughter" and to our children, who we love so very much.. It meant the world to us that you could stand up with us when we pledged our love to each other and became a family.

Here's to the many fun adventures of Scott, Miss, and kids to come...we look forward to all the memories and times we will share together!
