C&C's Lake Como Wedding

The day we first flew over to Basel in 2010 I was seriously bummed.

My heart is always hanging out on my sleeve and I kept switching from tears to puppy dog eyes.

  I'm absolutely terrible with changes, I want to hold onto every stage in life and need someone to gently tell me that what is ahead could be even better.  

 Everyone remembers how sad I was.  JB and I laugh about that a lot now.  We were eating with my in-laws at the airport just before we took off, and my mother in law kept reassuring me that we're going on a great adventure, that I was going to love it ... But at that moment I wasn't buying it.

I remember her telling me vividly 

"you're going to make great friends ... ones you will have all of your life"

i probably looked at her as if she had three eyes. 

{sorry diane!}

But she was right!

I was in a state of perpetual happy tears this weekend as I watched our two friends pledge forever to one another.

We both feel incredibly blessed that we were able to get to know them well while over here.

 { annnnd chris and crissy - we're friends for life.  you can't get rid of us. we willlll find youuuu. (:   }

anyway, the wedding!

holy smokes folks.

the beautiful bride, handsome groom, that dress, lake como, the toasts, italian food -

 it was absolutely LOVELY.

 and so much fun.  of course, because everything with them is fun!

{they exited the ceremony to the glee version of "don't stop believing"}

{cocktail hour included so many delicious treats... my fave - an entire wheel of parm}

{the tables had grapes, wild flowers, baguettes, butterflies, and a bottle of limoncello for the guests}

{cuban cigars & an olive tree with butterfly wishes from the guests}

Do you see why I want to pinch myself?

too good to be true, right?

Congrats C&C - we love y'all!
