Are you all ready?

J and I had a fabulous wedding on April 17th, 2004. I was concerned about having an April wedding because the weather in Wisconsin is so "iffy". But the day turned out absolutely beautiful- mid 70's and sunny all day.

We had purchased our house up north exactly 1 year prior and in buying the house and having wedding expenses we did not have the funds to go on a honeymoon. For a wedding present my parents gave us a 3 night stay in a hot tub suite at a casino/resort in the Upper Peninsula, so we were able to have a little get away time.

In the almost 5 years that we have been married we still have not been able to go on a real "honeymoon", mostly because from 2005 to 2007 I was saving to go on the hunting trip of a lifetime with my dad.

Now that the hunting trip is long done and over with, the house in Dunbar is sold and the majority of our debt is paid off we are ready to save and go on a vacation together.

HERE WE COME!

Just a long weekend- 4 days. But here is the really cool part- we are going April 15-18, 2010 with the 17th- our 6 year anniversary- being on Saturday. We have decided to renew our vows and J wants to have the ceremony performed by.....

We both feel that after nearly 5 years of marriage (and 8 years of being together) our relationship grows stronger every day and what better way to mark that than to get married all over again!


We also know that we always have a great time with friends and family and Vegas is the perfect place for that- SO HERE IS YOUR FORMAL INVITATION. Start saving your pennies because the more the merrier! Come and celebrate with us!



More details will follow at a later date!

Thank goodness this trip is taking place in 2010...by then I should be able to convince my mom to watch the kids so that Jason and I can go along with you. I think it's only appropriate that your bestman be there to witness you two renew your vows:)
