The heart ACHED without you. I miss you. I can't believe I haven't seen you since the wedding. What kind of DIL are you?? :) Awesome post. It's good to get the vomiting out early. And I can attest - he does love you and your vomit. Well, maybe not exactly LOVE your vomit, but he loves the woman behind the vomit. I think I should say vomit again. Vomit vomit vomit.

SO SO thrilled to have you in the family!! I can't believe how LUCKY LUCKY LUCKY we are! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

My heart is definitely fonder after your absence. It sounds like you had an awesome wedding and honeymoon. Sorry I missed the reception. I hope you post pictures on here soon!! Miss you!

Awesome! Congratulations on your job. I had a similar experience on my honeymoon. I was pretty tense the week before our wedding- let's just say I knew Gary really loved me after I drank a whole bottle of lemon laxative!

Congratulations on the wedding! I wish I could have come to your reception, but I was out of town. I'm sure everything was beautiful and perfect. I'd love to see pictures. Glad everything is going great for you!

Oh Anna! I have always loved your sense of humor! ;o) You were super busy!...I thought it was just the 'love bug' keeping you away & hello wedding plans!, but you had SO much going on girl!
Congrats on Graduating & getting married to your fantastic dream guy! Isn't being married the best. You can still look your worst-and you still love each other! A-mazing feeling isn't it! So sorry for the downer parts, but it wouldn't be real life I guess without them?
Looking forward to seeing where you and Dave's journey of life takes you...love you girl! :O)
