we got hitched...

Yes, on September 10, 2016, I walked down an aisle to meet a teary Erik and we said our vows in front of our closest family members and friends. Afterwards, we hung out for awhile at our local library with our awesome photographer, Ebony Scott, and then had custom made grilled cheese sandwiches with our guests, ate delicious trifle made by my sister, listened to the sweetest speeches, and even played a game...because play is always a good thing.

The day was beautiful. Just wanted to share a few pictures...

The Connell House, our wedding venue...a beautiful house full of history.

Erik made these initialled boxes for our rings.

My beautiful flowers girls waiting to walk down the aisle.



I love him.

We all joked Pappa D.'s sermon would last forever! But then it went by incredibly fast...over before I knew it...and we were bowing our heads to pray.

I love this picture of my mother. She looked particularly stunning that day...and happy.

Daaang...that sexy wedding ring!

I had been told by my friends to take time to cherish moments during my wedding day, because it would go by so fast. It really did...just flew by...but I am so thankful I have moments like these to remember. This is my favourite moment from the ceremony. He was shaking and starting to cry. And we just held each other for a long time.

Sharing a joyful moment with all of my nephews and nieces. I couldn't get over how excited and happy they were for me and Erik - some to the point of tears. I felt so thankful for them all in that moment.

Hugs all around!

I will share more photos soon!

Hyggelig

I first learned about "hygge" here . I was immediately hooked and began to do all kinds of research (i.e. Pinterest ) to learn more about this fascinating concept. Funnily enough, shortly after I learned about this awesome Danish word I found the perfect opportunity to put it into practice. My first ever adult snow day was on Monday. A monster blizzard slammed into New Brunswick, burying us under a mountain of snow. My workplace shut down. I was housesitting for my parents and all alone. I decided that I would spend my time using the elements I had learned about to create an absolutely "hyggelig" day. 1. Comforting and nourishing food: Sauteed kale, peanut butter cookies, sausage patties and pancakes, hot chocolate, tea 2. Time spent with loved ones I invited three of my nieces over (who conveniently live just across the road) to make heart shaped cookies, listen to music, read books, and drink hot chocolate. 3. Time spent in natur...

What I have been Up to:

1. Dishes, dishes, dishes. 2. Avoiding Christmas songs on the radio. 3. Giving people the gift of listening. It's a rarer gift than I thought. 4. Obsessing over this web-site: http://www.shopterrain.com/ 5. Trying to figure out how to prevent my eyebrows from bristling with dry skin. Ew! 6. Reading Tess of the D'Urbervilles for the second time and realizing that everyone should read books twice. 7. Procrastinating Christmas shopping like a boss. 8. Re-organizing the art area at work and adding na ture wherever I can! Nature basket 9. Refusing to be cold and wearing snow pants whenever I'm outside with kiddos. 10. Wearing the same makeup and French braiding my hair every day. 11. Planning a Settlers of Catan game night. Erik is in charge of snacks! 12. Buttoning my shirts to the top button. ~A
