Our First Full Day as Husband and Wife!I'll be honest. When I woke up that Sunday after our wedding, I thought, "I don't want to throw another party today...." Thankfully, Barb and my mom had done a lot of clean-up after the wedding, so it only took another hour or so to get the place into shape. And once our friends and family started showing up for the brunch, around 11:00, I was happy to have everyone back again. It ended up being a really fun day. We got food from TST Catering again--muffins, scones, rolls, bagels, fresh fruit, coffee, and juice, and they even threw in a couple hot dishes (french toast and a tasty egg dish). Delicious!

Sunday ended up being a really nice, relaxed day. I was happy to be back in regular clothes again, and I felt like I got more of a chance to really visit with people.

Carrie Sandwich!By around 3:00 most people had left, and Tomkin went over and picked up Scout and Chloe from the dog-sitters (our neighbors Tracy and Laura). My mom, my aunt Carol, and our friend Scotty all stuck around to chat and nosh on leftovers. We ate and talked until almost 9:00 that night! It was a nice way to wind down an incredible weekend.

I sure hope there was no significance that you and Tomkin were both wearing black the day after the wedding!
What a nice, relaxing day. You both look so happy!
