The Marter's!

We are officially married and are in wedding bliss! I could not have pictured a more perfect weekend!! The weather, the people, the ceremony, the party...it was all amazing! We are so blessed to have been able to celebrate and be surrounded by all our family and friends!!

The best wedding party ever!

This picture cracks me up! It was bike night in Chagrin and my brother and Kara befriended the bikers and started taking pictures on their bikes. Of course they insisted we jump on for a quick photo shoot. Travis and I made sure to get a picture with the bike owner. Notice the starbucks coffee in one hand and his cigarette in the other...cheers!

Happy 1st Birthday Rudy!!

I can't believe Rudy is a year today!! And it just so happens her birthday is 3 days before our wedding! The end of November will always be a great time to celebrate!

What a year its been! Rudy came into our lives at a crazy time and though some people (who will remain nameless) thought it wasn't the best idea that we got her while we were trying to plan our wedding and sell our house...there was no doubt she was meant to be part of our family! Those sleepless nights and chewed up pillows seem like so long ago...can't say they're too missed! She is our little spoiled pup and her favorite thing to do is hunt bury under the blankets snuggled in between Travis and I...sometimes I think she forgets she's a dog! Happy Birthday Rudy!!

It's the final countdown!

We're less then a week away from the Big Day!! Travis and I enjoyed our "last" date night before the big day (Thanks Natalie!) We spent the day running errands for last minute wedding stuff and enjoyed a nice dinner together! See ya at the Wedding!

Our humanimal

Apparently the dog bed is just not good enough for her! She needs to watch Dissing your Dog: How to Train Your Puppy with Mockery and Verbal Humiliation.
Notice Rudy has 3 pillows surrounding her...somehow she figured out how to do that on her own!

This is what it's all about

Getting Close...

I had to capture a picture from our busy weekend! Travis and I headed to Cleveland to finalize wedding stuff including getting our marriage license! It was a successful weekend and we are getting very excited for the big day! Everyone keeps asking me if I'm getting nervous...should I be?! because I really am more happy then anything! We can't wait to celebrate with all our family and friends in just a few short weeks!

Here we are in my parents foyer putting together our tables for the wedding. My aunt gave us the idea which she saw them do on the Kardashians (the only good idea that came out of that wedding ha!) We took paper plates (as the tables) and post its (represented the guests) to layout tables and table numbers. It was a great idea and really made the process a lot easier. I'm back to Cleveland next weekend for the final final wrap up of wedding planning!

Happy Halloween!!

We celebrated our (hopefully) last Halloween in Clintonville! I must admit that if we move to a house in the country I will miss having trick-or-treaters! We had some friends over, dressed up the dog, and passed out candy! It was a good time!

Me, Rudy, and Spider Man!
