MoH's great adventure

As much as I enjoy our lakeside photos, it's about time for some fresh fodder--preferably from LindsMoH, whose new locale is a bit more interesting than Reston. Surely some digit-all photos could make their way back stateside? Melissa and I promise that we won't make any rude resizing comments.

Rehearsal for their first dance



In case any of you were afraid Melissa and Pete wouldn't be prepared for their first dance, here's proof that they have what it takes.

AMAZING!


After a couple years of practice, the newlyweds-to-be seem to have perfected one of their water tricks.

GTB in NH



As you can see, they are a perfect match!

Good News!

Two bits of important good news:

1. BTB Kellye, GTBBT, and assorted friends and relatives survived a rollicking Bachelor/ette weekend in DC. A good time was had by all. Too good of a time was had by some. I hope that photos will soon be posted to commemorate the momentous occasion. Perhaps we can find one of BTBK in her ravishing veil.

2. Congrats to Liz and Emmett on their engagement!

BTB in NH


The BTB and I are here in Lake Sunapee, NH for two weeks. We have yet to check out local bridal shops, but I am sure the BTB has that on my agenda at some point. In the mean time we have been having some quality swim time in the lake. Please note the brand new pink and green goggles purchased by the BTB herself. I felt that such a stellar purchase couldn't possibly go without proper photographic documentation.

Found another one


Mark loves MBW. Come to think of it, I think I have documentation of just about any friend of mine enjoying this fine magazine.

Now what?

It appears that the dress purchase--done outside the realm of the "Running of the Brides," much to my dismay--has stymied conversation on the NupLog. I knew it was a milestone.

Friday, August 05, 2005

The dress has been ordered.

A request has been made that I blog this milestone, but I do so with reservation. Please do not post any identifying details about the dress or mention any specifics. Like, don't say, "Did you order the one with the gigantic embroidered hearts and poufy sleeves?"

Very bad things will happen to anyone who reveals any information to Pete about the dress.

Thank you.

And YAY

But everybody's doing it

That's right. All of my friends read Modern Bride: Washington edition. Here are some ringing endorsements: BT 'n' Anne!
Steve!

Busted!




sorry the pic's kinda blurry. But thank you GTB for aiding in my blog picture difficulties.

Oh well...

Guess I can take one country off the honeymoon list.

Bellies, camera phones and brides-to-be

Headgear rules.I felt this image would make a good substitute for one Kim "accidentally" deleted from her camera phone Saturday. I was minding my own business at Pat Troy's (sp), an Old Town Irish bar, watching Pat Troy himself prance about in a furry unicorn hat--much like the one he wears in a picture with R. Reagan, much to Scott's pleasure--when I was approached by a young woman, herself on the verge of marriage. As part of her bachelorette ritual (which also included a smallish blowup doll strapped to her back), she asked if I'd show her my chest. I believe I was targeted not because of my particular manishness, but rather because I was unaccompanied at the table. What followed was a debacle for everyone involved. It had been several years since I'd removed any clothing in public, so I had to take advice from Mark as to how to appropriately flash the young woman. Eventually, I was only able to show her my gut. Meanwhile, Kim, in her haste to take a photo of the aforementioned gut, managed to take a picture of her own face. (This may have been intentional--she was better off for it.) The young woman, thoroughly disturbed, returned to her table while Kim swiftly deleted the evidence of her own actions--though I briefly saw her frozen, concentrating face captured on the screen.
