-- Dreams --

Now that we are married of course the question changes from "When are you getting Married?" to "When are you going to have a baby?"   I'd like to thank my mom for giving me to permission to wait as long as I like...  But when I do, I hope that maybe I can do something creative like Adele Enerson, the woman on this blog I came across. 

She tries to come up with things that her little girl might be dreaming about while she's taking her nap.  It's too cute. 

Here's a couple of examples:

-- New Beginnings --

I'm trying to figure out where to take the blog from here.

I think it will basically be like starting over. My other blog, The Kellermeyer Chronicles, will be more about life after marriage and what comes next...mostly the funnies that we experience. So if you are bored, I'm hoping to get some good stories going on there. It's still new though.
For the next few weeks, I'll give wedding recaps. Like the breakdown of the day with pictures, stories, etc. And all the homemade items we ended up doing.

Then, I'm going to take it back to my loves... decorating, crafting, etc. This should be what Little Miss Martha is anyways!

I'd also like to give my blog a new life... Does anyone know a really good blog designer? I'd like to get something a little more unique and inviting going on here... I have added one new thing that you'll see below! I'm slowly but surely getting Little Miss Martha where I want it.
Until next time...

Day 10

We came home Sunday to a yard full of crabgrass, all my potted plants and hanging baskets DEAD, and a crazy messy house.  The first 2 were out of our control!  You should have seen the crabgrass...I always said that our house was one of the best looking on the block, but not this week.  I said "MIKE!!! Call TrueGreen IMMEDIATELY!!!  We can't have our yard look like this." 

So last night we mowed and weedwacked and watered EVERYTHING!  It looks much better cut, but we all know it will grow right back.  So we also put some major chemicals down... 

Hopefully it works. 

Here's to happily married day 10!

Pictures by Amanda Wilcher Photography

Ok...so this will be quick. 

We had some pictures taken before the wedding... 

Here they are!  We love Amanda and Kyle and can't wait to see what the wedding pictures look like!!! 

Thanks to Amanda Wilcher Photographers!  We heart these pictures... and the sneaks we saw at the wedding!

Mr & Mrs

Well, it's official.  We are married. 




And now we are on the beach in Aruba...It's lovely.  Our hotel really is GREAT! 



We also enjoyed a couples massage today...oooohhh la la. 



It's been nice.  2 days down, 3 to go.

-- It's been a while --

Well well well...so much for the 30 days in a row.  I've completely blown that goal...but only by 5 days this time! 

Anyways, today is the big day.  Rehearsal went well...I'm still super embarrassed to be in front of all those people so we'll see how tomorrow goes... 

I thought I'd stop in and say hello to all those who read me.  After today, I'll be Mrs. K instead of Miss H.  Everything is set, I think.  Hair and makeup in the morning, pictures before ceremony, ceremony, more pictures, and party! 

Hopefully it's not too hot in there...ugh...the no air conditioning in the middle of the summer is not a good thing.  But we'll survive. 

Now to get some sleep before the big event! 

I know Mike is super excited! 

Today I'll be married....weird.

- 8 Days Remaining of Unwedded Bliss -

8 days left before the big day
  1. I'm getting my hair colored in a day.  I'm not sure how that's going to turn out.  I think I'm cutting that pretty close. 
  2. My mom is throwing me a Margaritas to Marriage party...mostly because she wanted to have it be Mexican themed...I think she just wanted to make Margaritas!  But I'm OK with that. 
  3. We are doing our Pre-Cana on Sunday.
  4. I still need to make the boutonnieres and mothers bracelets.
  5. I need to figure out something for the favors because my plan fell through...thanks etsy.  This is the one time you have failed me! :(  Don't worry I'll still shop on you. 
  6. I need to cut out all the programs I brought home with me to cut out so my mom and sister won't be disappointed in me. 
  7. Still need to get Mike a ring...OOPS!  Might just be going to a quarter candy machine last minute! 
  8. Still need pictures from Mike's family...been asking for them since like April or May.  Why do thing seem to take longer when planning a wedding? 
In 9 days I'll be laying on a beach in Aruba...In 9 days I'll be laying on a beach in Aruba...In 9 days I'll be laying on a beach in Aruba...In 9 days I'll be laying on a beach in Aruba...In 9 days I'll be laying on a beach in Aruba...In 9 days I'll be laying on a beach in Aruba...In 9 days I'll be laying on a beach in Aruba...In 9 days I'll be laying on a beach in Aruba...In 9 days I'll be laying on a beach in Aruba...In 9 days I'll be laying on a beach in Aruba...

-- Can't Sleep --

Not me, I'm exhausted! 

Mike...

He woke up at like 4am and didn't go to bed until like 11:15 last night at least.  That's not a lot of sleep.  I asked him if he thought he couldn't sleep because he was nervous?  He said "HA, No!"

Ok...well, we'll see how tonight goes.

-- It Can Be Official Now --


This is Mike and I (bad pic - don't judge).


This is Noblesville.


This is Mike and our Marriage License and a pamphlet they gave us on STDs...Nice, I know.


This is where I go for coffee in downtown Noblesville.  Love it! 


And they have this bumper sticker you can buy there.


Then I went home to find this...I heart my dogs.  Thanks Louie!


The end.

-- Bad Dreams --

Did any other Bride-to-Be's out there have bad dreams before the big day? 

On Saturday I had a quite humorous nightmare...it was actually quite comical.  My photographer - Amanda Wilcher - was making me laugh with all the outrageous things she was making us do, it was raining and we were wearing rain boots, but my bridesmaids were not wearing the dresses that I had picked out for them instead they were wearing dresses that apparently they had picked out for themselves which had holes all in them.  Mike and the boys were in Jeans and I'm not quite sure what else...actually at one point, I think he was shirtless.  My dress was no where to be seen in this dream...I think my dress quite resembled the one that Amy wears in the "Diary of a Mad Bride."  Priceless. 

I'm wondering what dreams are to come... 

Any dreams that you can remember from before your big day?  I'd love to hear them!  I'm sure there are some good ones out there.

-- Dinner with the Pope --

Yes, you read that correctly... 

Lets start from the beginning! 

Whitney asked me what I wanted to do for my "bachelorette" party.  Being my always embarrassed by sexual, silly, (Insert boy part here)-straw self I quickly said... I don't want a bachelorette party.  So we thought maybe it might be nice to do like a nice show that came to town and dinner, but the nice shows like Legally Blonde and Jersey Boys were not only a little bit out of the price range, they also came and went quickly.  So...it was just going to be dinner.  But a dinner that we did not expect. 

We were all set to meet at Buca de Beppos.  Whit had reserved a special room.  I didn't really know they had a special room...the only one I knew of was the one in the kitchen.  Anyways, when we walked back to the table, we were greeted by the pope. 


We sat in the Pope room.  Isn't this guy a little creepy though?  Not only was he sitting in the middle of the massive lazy susan, but he had the craziest eyes that you would catch staring at you every once in a while. 

*Notice the Sybaris Phamplet -- Thank you Stacey and Shanna for the lovely bachelorette bag of goodies...Mike has gone through it multiple times and wondered when we are going to use some of the items (special condoms, pregnancy test 2 pack, k-y massage oils in multiple scents, and a bedroom intensity set -- tie ups and a blindfold)...don't worry...I'm sure they won't get much use!  My face is totally red right now writing this! 

(yes, we put these items behind the Pope's back)

**For those of you who don't know what Sybaris is, look it up.  I will not link to their site because I think it's disgusting and it was a joke, but they do apparently give free tours from 1-4 daily and you get a free gift. 



So that's how I had dinner with the Pope and some great girlfriends!  Thanks to Jennie, Ann, Stephanie, Whitney, Emily, Stacey, and Shanna for coming!  I always have a good time with all of you!  We need to do it again soon...Minus Pope-y!
