Hello World.: The Day After Thanksgiving Tradition

The Day After Thanksgiving Tradition

>> Friday, November 26, 2010

With only a few exceptions - our wedding in '07 and our South American cruise last year in '09 we've gone on the hunt for the perfect tree the day after Thanksgiving.

This year we visited an new (to us) tree farm in Maple Valley. It was a cute setup with lots of great trees to choose from, well groomed fields to walk in, SUPER friendly little helpers (a brother and sister team under ten), hot coffee and cookies in the gift shop AND Santa!

I'm so glad we snapped a few photos on Santa's lap before we went on the great tree hunt of '10. I'm not sure we would have gotten the same smiles from our little buckaroo if we would have waited.

What a day, I felt like the luckiest kid in the world! We feel so blessed that we were able to share our day with friends and loved ones. It truly was one of the happiest days of both our lives and we loved each and every minute of it!

Our planning process was a whirl wind. Who says you can’t plan the perfect day in three months, and have a blast doin’ it?! I realized during our planning how truly lucky I am to have Jack to stand beside. Our happy day was truly a testimony of team work, love, compromise and countless episodes sittin’ side by side watching WE tv wedding shows.

Small and intimate was our goal...no maid of honor, no best man, no big wedding party, just Jack’s adorable nieces as the flower girls. Our original guest count was not to exceed 50, a comfortable 100 graced us with their presence. It was intimate, warm, exciting…it was the best day we’ve shared together.
