Our Ring Bearers...

Ryan, Jason, Jimmy and Amar will be the "ring bearers" at the wedding in July... I use the quotes because clearly, there will only be 2 rings to be carried-- so, we'll see what job we are able to come up with for the rest of them!!

Ryan, age 10, is Kristen's nephew and Godson. He is a fourth grader and an avid hockey player as exemplified by his HUGE muscles!


Jason, age 8 (almost 9), is Kristen's youngest nephew and Ryan's brother. Jason, a third-grader, is a goalie for his hockey team and is clearly in need of a little dental work-- hopefully that will be taken care of before the wedding or it should make for some interesting photos!





Jimmy, age 8 (almost 9), is another of Kristen's nephews. This "cool dude" loves jumping, dancing, singing, riding his bike, hanging out with his friends at school, swimming... and of course, doors!!


Our fourth and final ring bearer is Amar (age 9), Kristen's "little brother." Amar, an awesome 3rd grader, loves football, knitting, hanging out with his awesome "big sister," and playing his PS2.


Stay tuned for bios of the rest of the bridal party!!

July in Buffalo!

Hello again... Well, as you can tell it is about 1:30am-- I made the mistake of falling asleep on the couch for 3 hours and now I cannot fall asleep in my bed... so, I figured I'd give you the update!

Lots of progress has been made. The date and location are 100% set so, get ready to book your trip to Buffalo in July!! We will get more details about hotels, etc ASAP so you can book that soon-- you know, Buffalo is a major summer destination!

We also have a honeymoon booked-- we are headed to Victoria, British Columbia and are so excited!! We'll arrive there on 8/9/09 which leaves us time to possibly take the train through the Canadian Rockies to get there-- but, that is all TBD-- and it is Kenny's job!

Also, a big THANK YOU goes out to Allison today! She, my matron of honor, and I went wedding dress shopping today with great success. After only two shops and 3 hours (with a Starbucks coffee break in between the shops to re-fuel) I had my dream dress picked out and purchased! So very exciting! (Here is a sneak preview.)

So, we are on our way... with less than 6 months to go!
