The wedding of the year! :-)

I'm so proud of my lil sis, Ashley, and am truly happy that she has found a best friend and life companion with Scott Doody. The wedding was beautiful and I was honored to be co-maid of, uh, honor with my baby sis Sarah. Check out pics below!

Florida!! (I'll do a separate special blog for the wedding day :)

Well we've been back in Alaska for a few days and this cold is making it impossible for us to get over how much we LOVED the beautiful weather in Florida the entire time we were there. I was glad to spend some real quality time with my family, and we even got to visit with Jay's extended family too. Thanks for a great vacation! Miss you all!!

 yay vacation! When my parents got into town I tricked them into being delivered to the bar where we all met up and shared food and fun memories

 Like I said in the title, I'll do another blog fo the wedding day. So this pic starts the day after the wedding. My cousins Caryn and Sheryl joined my sister, Dad, Mom, Jay and I for a delicious experience at the Cheesecake Factory in West Palm. Our waitress was a "special" person and later found out that my phone was missing because when she cleared the table she tossed my phone in the buss bucket with the dirty dishes. Thanks moran! and Thanks Sheryl for helping me find it!

 My cousin Sheryl :-) It was her birthday!! Happy Birthday!

 We had a ton of fun going to Deerfield Beach with Jay's cousin Heidi and her little guy, Dylan. He was such a ham at the beach!

While Amanda spent some time in Boston and Portsmouth, NH.  Jay spent some quality time in his home town.  Spending the days in the woods with Jonas and the evenings at the VFW with Mitch, April, Matt and Brad.  Had great weather, saw some deer, shot at some turkeys and found a deer antler shed.

Back in Mass - Sunday

Leaving NH we headed to Hubbardston, MA to visit Matt and Lisa at their new home with new baby Brody (who came 2 weeks early since he knew we were coming).  

We then met up with our friends Travis and Terese...blindfolded them, and took them to our favorite speak easy the Two Dog Saloon.  The Patriots game was about the start, the spirits were flowing and we had a great showing of the Wuoti Family and Auntie made sure no one went home hungry.
