After the Wedding

So the rest of the summer will be done in a bit of a disorganized fashion but wanted to get some of the fun memories up! We spent part of my birthday with friends at a local Thai restaurant. Mom gave me this bracelet set and I loved it!

This is me "cooking" in the cute apron a friend made for one of our wedding showers!

These are photos of us in our Bangladesh clothing with some of the treats that my parents friends set to us - yummy sugar!

What summer would be complete without jet skiing and skiing with the Millers?! Fun times on the water!

For my Birthday Adam's parents gave us tickets to see Beauty and the Beast a Starlight theater. We had great weather and a good show!

We went out with friends Jon and Katie to thank them for taking care of the sounds and with the Millers for reading and helping out with the wedding. It really did take an army to pull it off.

Also for my birthday Adam took me to a bed and breakfast nearby! We spent the night at a wonderful restaurant - http://www.drugstorerestaurant.com/justus.php?id=1. Yummy! We spent the day at the lake nearby and forgot to put on sunscreen - we were fried!

Fun drinks with egg whites! It was a fun Birthday!

This was a photo from our one month anniversary. I got a special cupcake to celebrate!

We went to test drive a mustang one day just for fun. It would be Adam's dream to own one - Maybe one day!

Our first night out on the town in KC - we saw Despicable Me - highly recommended by us.

Lastly is one of Adam's favorite wedding presents - something edible of course! The whole summer was a great start to our married life together!

Anguilla

I won't include too many photos from the Honeymoon of course, but I had to include a few as it was one of the most beautiful places I have ever been! Adam agrees and it was just a wonderful, gorgeous place to start our married life together! Adam even went horseback riding for the first time!

Ruth and Adam's Wedding

The wedding day was finally here. I of course forgot to pick up the flowers so below you can see that Hannah was nice enough to pick them up the morning of and take them to our house. Becky did my hair and Jacob and Leah, Emily Ann and many others helped to set up so it really took an army!

Below are a few pictures from day from our photographer and then some random. My good friend Erica and many others traveled down to celebrate with us so we were really blessed!

Videos from the day can be found at http://www.intvid.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=56&Itemid=58/ under Ruth and Adam Sidor. It was a fun day thanks to all those who made it a special day! Hope you enjoy!

Rehearsing for Wedded Bliss

We had the Wedding Rehearsal at the studio where we were getting married the next day and then he dinner at a local restaurant called Brio. It was delicious and a really meaningful time to get to spend with family. Don' have many pictures but here is what we have!

The Whole Sha-bang

The week before the wedding included water balloon fights out back and lots of wedding projects like these beautiful banners that my sister in law Susie made. We stayed up late plenty of nights just enjoying being together as a family!

The girls threw an awesome lingerie shower/bachelorette party for me complete with a huge Mexican hat and tiara afterwards. The guys were out playing lazer tag and golf so we all had a fun time before the wedding!

We also had a picnic for all the out of town wedding party and family so we could all just relax and have fun by the lake! The guys played whiffle ball and I forgot my camera so mostly these are pictures that my niece Abigail took! You might be able to tell by the vantage point!

Fun times in the water and then of course Adam the pitcher!

Wedding Preparations

For those of you who still periodically check the blog I am trying to update to the present! I think this will be done through short photo blurbs so you can see what has been going on in life! Above was at the great wedding shower the the women of Oak Hills had for me. Molly ran it and Hannah hosted in her beautiful new house! Adam and I did a lot of biking during the Spring:-)

I was not the only one with new things happening in life. My friend from work Julie just had a new baby. There were three friends from the lab at KU - Julie, Amanda, Jamie and now Natalie who all are expecting or have had beautiful babies over the past few months. I have been so happy to be a part of this time in their lives!

The above photos were taken at the baby shower we went to on the way to pick up my family from the airport the week of the wedding! We were so happy to be in one place! I love the photo of the two guys working on their computers together. I made Adam laugh in this photo but Dad was holding out!

And here is the whole crew at church - A nice, sunny day in Kansas!
