Mr. and Mrs. Minnicks (And I don’t mean us)

What, what!!

SO I just saw Andy and Rachel for the first time since the wedding and I still can’t believe it!

Here’s their photographers website to see a sneak peak of their wonderful pics!!

I can’t wait to see the rest!

Until then we will have to suffice and blog on with my pics! I actually did pretty well the morning of the wedding(especially considering how intoxicated i STILL was from the night before)!

Rachel and I and some of the bridesmaid decided to get our nails and toes done the day of rehearsal….. YES I have nails- some still cal them nubs though… I asked to have them AS SHORT AS POSSIBLE!

Believe it or not I’m actually thinking of getting a “fill in” to make them last longer but I must call Ney Ney first to discuss the ins and outs of how to go about this!

The rehearsal dinner was held at The Nook, one of my favorites partly due to the fact that their famous for their “Totchos”… oh yeah! Tater tot nachos! DSC07376

Margaux and Stephanie some of the funnest bridesmaids ever and Margaux flew in from Italy to make both the bachelorette party and wedding!!DSC07369
