Rehearsal........




OK I know Im going backwards but I wont have any wedding pictures for a couple of weeks, so until then, I will post a few pictures of the festivities leading up to the wedding, which were a blast.........these pics are the rehearsel, and after that we had a big party at the Old Spaghetti Factory, which was one of the funnest times I have ever had. So many of Alex's family and friends flew in form all over the country and world. I was really happy to see his fathers good friend who came in from Norway!!!!! I dont think my smile left my face the whole evening.......especailly touching was when Alex's grandfather who is in a wheelcar, stood up and danced a bit to celebrate, there was not a dry eye in the house. It was an evening my husband and I will not forget!!!!!
There have been many parties up to and after the ceremony, Alex's dad Fred hosted a party at a Persian Restaurant Sunday night and it was even more fun than the other one....we danced into the night......
My houseguests Glenni and her daughter Lindsey left yesterday evening.....the kids arrived in Jamaica this morning, and my house is empty and quiet for the first time in a week........and I am left with the remnents of a very good time!
I did not take any pictures of the day of the wedding and all the girls having thier make up done, but I know there are some and I will share as soon as a get them, I wanted to relax........and spend some time with my oldest Tracey who flew in from CT. and surprised her sister, it was a touching moment. There were lots of touching moments over the days, not the least being poor dad of the bride sobbing as he walked her down the aisle......and hes a man who never crys!!!! OHHHHH I have pics of that too people took, I will share those too! He says it was his feet hurting from the shoes he rented............ok.......fine......lolololol.....
So now I am here alone in my house, wondering what to do with the rest of my life, any suggestions????????

I have enjoyed your story and pictures leading up to the wedding. I can't wait to see the wedding pictures. It sounds like you had a wonderful time. Now that it is all over I think that you Southern CA girls should have a girls day out!!
