I am home and the wedding and everything all weekend was perfect, my pictures aren’t but the celebration was. I promise to blog and put up pictures but right now I don’t have time. You see Bear and I talked my late best friends daughter into coming home with us, we promised to take her to Amsterdam. So tomorrow Bear is driving the two of us to the Keukenhof Garden and then we are going to Amsterdam until late Monday night. w00t, I am finally going to see the Van Gogh museum and the Rijksmuseum and more. I’m so excited!
I accidently put this on allison’s photo blog first. rofl, oh well it was her wedding!
All of our pictures at the actual wedding site were either blurry or shadowed or someone had red eye……not one came out worth a damn.
Brian’s uncle is going to share his pictures and he has a much better camera so I’m hoping that his came out better than mine. I guess i’ll know in a few weeks.
This was taken a day or so after the wedding.left to right…
my Emily
the bride, Allison is in the middle
On the right Cassie’s daughter Katrina. The only one of our friends able to come over for the wedding. We were waiting at Dublin airport for Emily, Trey and Katrina to arrive and it was so funny because me and Em didn’t cry but when Katrina saw me she cried, so of course I did. I think I’m the closest thing to a mom she has left.
I’m really glad that we are getting to take her to Amsterdam.
Edit update for Angi.
My new hat. I got this instead of an Aran Island sweater.

That is so wonderful! I am glad everything went well.
I am jealous! I want to go! Take me! lol
Did you get a sweater?
I can’t wait to hear more about EVERYTHING!
Be safe, have fun!
@angi1972 - I didn’t get a sweater but I did get a divine handknit wool hat. I’ve been looking for the perfect hat to go with my cashmere coat and voila, there it was in Galway. I’ll try to find a picture for you.
I love the wedding dress! Can’t wait to see more pictures, blurry or not. Love to you and yours!!
I think those three smiles say it all…that’s too bad about the pictures, but it’s the people that count. You’ll be telling these “Pearls” for generations to come, with or without photos.
I can only imagine how much you and Katrina needed that hug… Have a wonderful time in Amsterdam. Take plenty of good or bad photos… hahaha
Awww..the lovely bride! It looks like the strapless bra worked! Everything looks in place up there!!
I’m glad you were able to post a couple of pics at least. It’s nice to see all the lovely and smiling faces…and the handsome ones as well! Nice to see you too!!
I love the color of Allie’s bouquet and sash. Is it a dusty rose? Looks lovely from here. I hope you’re able to get plenty of pics up soon. I absolutely love looking in on my friends!!
Is that your husband? Handsome man, whomever he is. I think Brian looks REALLY Irish. I had some good friends years ago from Dublin. Brian Dunning..flute player..what a hoot he was.
Amsterdam. I was there and loved it. I snuck and took pics. in the Rijksmuseum…haha…Yeah..I’m sneaky that way. I remember some girl, sitting on the grass, smoking some. Stay out of the pot shops while you’re there. heeheeeee…
I’m glad everything went well. I’m envious of you for getting to go to the Van Gogh museum. Have a blast!
OH! I love the hat! Very nice!
I am so glad the wedding went well…
Get that new camera soon!
Safe journey!
Yay, yay, yay … I’ve been waiting! Allison looks beautiful. I can see why the pink was hard to match. It’s a gorgeous color. It’s great that Katrina was able to join all of you. I’m looking forward to more pictures. We aren’t going to get to see the infamous shoes, are we?
The hat is perfect with your new haircut … so chic!
Have fun in Amsterdam!
@zhenai - I completely forgot to take a picture of her feet. I will have her put them on and take a picture, they really are a cute pair of shoes. We actually ended up with two pair, one a little higher heal than the other, then when her feet started hurting at the reception she changed into the lower heal. Smart girl!
Thanks for putting the pics up mom! I hope you guys have a great time in Amsterdam! Love to you all! xoxo
