Pam & Ryan Tie the Knot ~ May 15, 2010

My good friend Pam married her best friend in May.  Ryan is an amazing guy, and they make an incredible couple, who are 100% there for each other through it all.  I was very blessed to watch them pledge their love for each other, and got to party it up with my best friends & family.  It was a perfectly planned night...courtesy of a very creative Pamela Ann, and etsy! :)  Congrats Mr. & Mrs. Dewald!!

Near the end of April, I had the privledge of being the Matron of honor in my cousin's wedding to her prince charming.  Liz & Luke got married April 24th in Toledo, OH.  It was a very special event, and a great time was had by all.  Tyler even got to be involved, he was the ring bearer and looked so adorable in his little tuxedo.

Spring into 2010 ~ March 2010

March 2010 was full of fun events!  My cousin is getting married in April, and as her MOH, I was responsible for throwing her a bridal shower.  The theme was You've got to Kiss a lot of Frogs to get to your Prince.  My cousin is obsesssed with frogs, so it just worked.  I thought it turned out great!

What an elaborate cake!  You can get the "theme" from this.

My cousin Stephanie married the man of her dreams she had to go to the other side of the world to meet.  Sam & Steph had a beautiful wedding and reception.  It was the perfect time to get the family together.  Congrats guys!

Little did I know this would be my last moments with one of the best women in the world, my amazingly strong, intelligent, lovely Aunt Gretchen

The fam always being the life of the party!

Sam & Mike

Near the end of March, Mike, Ty and I took a trip down to Fort Myers, FL with my parents, for spring break.  It was Ty's first plane ride in his own seat.  It was an exciting time, and he was the best little boy.  I was so proud.  We had a relaxing time and perfect weather on our trip.   A big thanks goes out to my parents for inviting us yet again!  It really makes for a wonderful, memorable vacay!

Our one night walking on the beach to catch the sunset alone.  Thanks Mom & Dad for babysitting.

When we returned home from vacation, it was time to celebrate Easter.  Ty and I got to color eggs, and I got to play easter bunny.  That was so much fun this year.  Ty loved searching for the eggs, his basket and his gift.  I even got creative putting small paw prints around.  Simple pleasures:)
