Newlywed Update

I am writing a post-wedding update at last!
Our wedding was such a perfect day and I am loving being a newlywed wife to my amazing husband!

We had an incredible honeymoon in Palm Beach, FL and spent time in Charleston, SC and New Orleans, LA during our trip as well.We had a delightful first Christmas and enjoyed spending the holidays with Stephen's great family. After sorting through hundreds of wedding pictures, I have several blog entries nearly complete and am eager to begin posting more pictures and details from our wedding.

Thank you for all of the kind comments and sweet emails sent over the past three weeks! I look forward to sharing more pictures and details from the wedding soon, but will conclude this entry with several of my very favorites:

I love your pictures, especially the one with you and Stephen profiled looking off to the edge of the picture. And I can't believe you made those cheesecakes. And the picture of him hugging Sheridan with her red coat is stunning. And when he is grabbing your hand and schepping you over the porch to your future. . .I love it! <3 Yay, Meredith and Stephen! Happy Life to you two forever. For. Ever. <3

Wonderful to see some photos. I certainly am not not going to pick oyt a favourite - how could I?! I do, however, LOVE, the sepia coloured photo of yourself and Sheridan. I love the one of yourself and Stephen with his uniform hat on (Who doesn't love a man in uniform?!!); the one showing the reception all lit up...gorgeous! And the wedding cake - fabulous! Oh, I could go on (I normally do!)
Blessings, and much love

Great photos, beautiful gown. And I love the mason jars with votive candles hanging from the trees. Totally stealing that idea for my next party.

Your wedding pictures are just beautiful. I did not realize your husband was in the Army...and airborne as well. My husband is an Army Chaplain and we are stationed at Ft. Bragg. If you all are stationed here, would love to meet you. You have been such an inspiration to my 14 year old daughter in serving at home as you waited for God's choice for a mate. Are you going to be at the Family Economics conference in Raleigh? We are signed up to be there and saw that your family would be attending. We are very excited about going and hope to speak with your dear family there. God's blessings to you, Jackie

Hello Meredith,
I was just telling Marie how behind I am on my blogging..I have thought of you often and prayed that your Honeymoon was a blessing...I am just starting catching up so I look forward to reading more...I love the picuter with you and Sheridan..that is such a lovely photograph..I also didn't realize that Stephen was in the Military...Maybe I just missed that as I was knew to your blog...

I am so excited for you...and happy to hear you had a delightful Christmas together...

Many Blessings to you and your HUSBAND..( don't you just love that) I think for the first month I was newly married I called him Husband instead of using his name.. : )

And..a Happy New Year to you both..
In Christ
