Stumbled to...

A new obsession. Gypsy Vanner horses are amazing. I want one now. I especially want the one named Rivendell Evenstar. She is a thing of beauty. Go here and see them. The photos were done by Mark Barrett, and the story behind these horses is AMAZING. They are hoses bred to be the perfect caravan horse for gypsies. I've always loved the feathered feet and curly mane of the fresians and this horse combines that with a really interesting coloring. I stumbled upon these so that's my first stumble post! Check this guy out.

New Feature

I stumble, a lot, Thanks Char... I'm going to share some of the awesomeness that I find. Be on the lookout!

2 big projects for spring/summer

I am planting a vegetable garden this spring. I hope to grow enough veggies for us to not have to buy any this summer. Unfortunately, right now, out backyard looks like this:




we had a tree come down, can you tell? So, I want to plant vegetables where that tree is. Any suggestions on what to plant? Anyone had experience in planting?

More Pictures

I think most of these were taken by my new Father in Law. See why we picked this church??





That's it on wedding pictures for now. I'll try to post more fun stuff.

I'm shameless

Check out the new page feature. I'm shamelessly asking for your donations to help me (us now) pay off my scary student loans. So, if you're paying yours off too and you feel my pain, donate a little (I know you can't afford it). If you're out from under and feeling generous, donate a lot. I'd really love that. If a bunch of people only donate a little, it would REALLY help. Now, back to your regularly scheduled programming.

SM MFERS

I really hate Sallie Mae. They are going to try to screw me for the rest of my life. I am about to cry right now. It seems like I'll never get ahead with them. ALL of the money I have paid them has gone on interest. NONE has gone to the principal. How does that work? It's like they want to ruin my life. I have no idea how to fix this. I think I really may have to get a second job.

EDIT

I don't want this to get all down in the dumps. I'm really upset about all of this, but there's not much I can do about it now. I'll try to be more up-beat.

The wedding was wonderful, but

Okay. The things I DIDN'T like about the wedding in order.


5. The Organist

You all heard about the organist saga, in previous posts. He didn't know the music I wanted, and wasn't too helpful until the very end.

4. The pillows
I lost 2 nice bed pillows in all of this ruckus. I think they got left at the church and though we have tried to get them back, we have failed. Those were nice pillows. Not cheap. And I liked those pillows. I haven't been able to get the pillows we still have to work right.

3. The time warp
Let's do it again, no seriously, it all went so fast! I'd like it to have all been slower and easier to remember.

2. Being late
That really sucked. I was so mad. I was really afraid to hurt Jason's feelings too. I didn't want him to think I had stood him up. Plus I didn't want all of that anger in me on the day.

1. The minister
Was a jerk. Didn't say one word to us after the ceremony. Yelled at our wonderful photographer. Was a general jerk the whole time. Yeah. Not a fan.

Those were the things I didn't like. My favorite thing, by far, is being married to the most wonderful man in the universe.
