Wedding Ceremony

I stole these pictures from someone's facebook.

Getting Ready, Day of Wedding

I didn't bring my camera to the salon, so here are the hair shots I have right now.

Stacie's hair:

Here's my makeup... a bunch of us had our makeup done at the counter at Nordstrom after our hair was done. I had mine done at the Lancome counter and the lady who did it was so nice!

Here we are right before the wedding, getting ready for the ceremony:

Here are our beautiful bouquets, Stacie's is the one in the back.

The Night Before

The night before the wedding, Stacie, Jane, Michelle and I all stayed at her parents' home. We had to practice putting the dress on Stacie and learning how to bustle it. It was quite the process.

Bachelorette Party

For Stacie's bachelorette party we went to Duke's Country Bar, which although very scary by its website and the fact that it is a country bar, turned out to be a fun place to be with everyone.

These pictures are a little out of order, but whatever. Here's Stacie and Erica dancin'.
Here's the outside of Duke's, note the lovely corral.
Here's some of us learning to line dance at the beginning of the night. (free line dance lessons at 8 PM on thursday nights)
Here are 4 of us. Bridesmaids in red. Bride in white. All with rhinestones. I did not bring that cowboy hat, someone placed it on my head for this photo. They served our beer in mason jars.
Here I am with Amber when we first got on the mechanical bull. I was a little scared. Shortly after this photo, Amber fell off and I scooted up and ended up lasting the longest out of our whole group, hoooray

Rehearsal Dinner

Last night, Stacie & George's rehearsal dinner was at the Portland City Grill which is located on the 30th floor of this building:
Here's a view to the east from the top:
Here's the view looking northwesterly:

Stacie & George!
Night view looking south, don't mind the lens.
Some of the bridesmaids (Erica & Amber, both from Oregon) post-dinner after we'd received our bridesmaids' gifts, necklaces from Tiffany where Stacie works.
Here's a close up of the necklace Stacie gave each of us. I think it's just lovely.

New Glasses

I found these glasses at the Parsonage. I don't know who they belong to. I tested them out a little bit though, as you'll see below. I also tried to put them on Mickey, but he was not interested.

Updates on Stuff

Peter's boat! I couldn't figure out how to turn the lights on in the barn, so I had to use my flash here. Then, I decided to open the barn doors for a different perspective.

Here's the stop sign garden, which is nice and green and beginning to get more colorful.

And finally, we have had some very high tides lately...as you can see by this picture and by the debris on the dock from a previous tide.
