May Merriment!

"The night you gave me my birthday party...
you were a young Lieutenant and I was a fragrant phantom,
wasn't I? And it was a radiant night, a night of soft conspiracy
and the trees agreed that it was all going to be for the best."
— Zelda Fitzgerald

 I am really excited about our celebration in May.

Our wedding was perfect, unique and very much just about us...that was the focus and the whole point of it. 

It wasnt clouded over with expectations or some grand carried-away plan. 

It was completely us...so sacred and dear to me.

[that story - the preparations and details - soon to come]

Our May celebration is setting up to be just as unique and lovely...except the focus

this time is on family and friends and an opportunity for us to celebrate our union with them. 

I can't wait to see the dance floor set up in this very field.

Husband and I drove out to the country on Saturday to finish prepping the invitations with my parents. 

We decided to design and do them ourselves  -

I have never stamped so much in my life and I am actually quite proud of our hard work.

They are in the mail today!
