Welcome!

What was once a wedding blog for my mother and I to share ideas is slowly (VERY slowly -- like, we're 10 years down the road from our first post to one another!) becoming a blog for my life. I've rediscovered it in the Middle-Of-The-Night as I work and search for something to keep myself busy and awake (I am no night owl)! 
***********************************
In keeping with the spirit of origin, you'll find links to our wedding prep, wedding day and then our first married year! (Terribly interesting, I know) As for the rest of the blog.. We'll just see where it goes! I dabble in many different areas, because I get bored easily (I do NOT sit still well!) so there is no telling what I might end up sharing! Thanks for hanging in there with me!

Birdies & Guitars Explained

When I was planning our wedding, I wanted to find a way to equally represent not only myself but my husband as well in the "theme" of the wedding. I have been an avid bird watcher (and bird knick-knack collector) since I was a child and my husband is a bit of a music officianado and guitar collector. I created a custom motif for our wedding displaying a bird and a guitar, so out of that "Birds and Guitars" was born. After his birth, I added a music note to symbolize our son, because together birds and guitars make music, after all. (Cheesy, I know, but it works and we're sentimental, cheesy people! Haha)
