Yesterday Jason and I decided to celebrate my birthday, which is the 18th. He starts school again on Tuesday so it just seemed like a good idea to celebrate on the weekend. He took me out for brunch… Then we went to see The Phantom of the Opera and had dinner afterwards… It was a nice day. 
Phantom was really good. I have seen it on stage twice and totally love it… I wasn’t sure what to expect from the movie but overall it was great. There is something about the music in that show that just gets to me…. I always get the chills when I see it performed… The phantom in the movie wasn’t the best I have seen but he definitly didn’t ruin the music or anything….
Frank the turkey that is.
Jason and I spent the Wednesday, Thursday and Friday visiting our parents and family up in Wisconsin. It was a fun weekend. Wednesday I spent the day helping my sister set up her new laptop (which means I got my old one back) and having dinner with my parents while Jason caught up with old high school friends at a party…
Thursday was the main event… We spent the morning watching Harry Potter III and convincing Frank (Jason’s family’s turkey) to finally reach 180 degrees… Around 1 he warmed up a little and we enjoyed a great Thanksgiving meal #1… Then it was of to my house for Thanksgiving meal #2… the turkey there was unnamed… but we almost had a crisis when Sassy (my parents dog) didn’t have a chair at the table… But never fear I was offered cranberry goo… Just as I am every single year since birth… and just as I have, every single year since birth, I told my parents I don’t like it… Ahhhh traditions… Then it was back to Jason’s parent’s house for some good old reliable cut throat competition with a dose of fun thrown in… We played spades and hearts and had a good time winning and losing….
Friday we had lunch with an old high school friend and then hit the road for the six hour drive home to two kitties who hadn’t been loved in three days… Friday also marks an anniversary for Jason and I… If we were still dating (instead of being married) it would have been our seven year anniversary… What better way to share it than with family and friends in the morning and two needy kitties at night… Now if only we could have skipped that drive in between…
And last but not least… I don’t think I have said this here… but all the wedding pictures are now available for your viewing pleasure here.
Jason has finally posted some pictures… there are links in his sidebar… but I will post the links here also… These are some wedding pictures… and here are the New York pictures.
Jason and I didn’t think we would have time for a honeymoon immediatly after the wedding… We were married on the 14th and his school stuff started on the 18th… Little did I know Jason was looking at making plans for labor day weekend… So, this weekend Jason and I are off to New York City!!!! We will get to see a performance of Chicago… tickets courtesy of my wonderful in-laws… We are seeing it shortly after Paige Davis left the cast and just before Wayne Brady joins the cast… but I am excited and thrilled to get to see it anyway…
Since no one seems to be too quick to get any pics posted I will finally post one that I have in digital format… I promise more will come once I find the CD of pics someone gave me… and maybe once others upload a few…
Before I get into all the fun stories of mine and Jason’s wedding day I would like to start with saying the day was perfect. It was beautiful and perfect… I wouldn’t have had it any other way. I am now extremely happily married to the love of my life!
