Our faux St. Patrick's Day surprise with JackBeck and Miss_Strawberry!
We celebrated St. Patrick's Day with JackBeck and Miss_Strawberry at Poor Herbies in Madison, NJ. They had the extreme honor of being the first to see the beautiful rings we bought one another to celebrate our new found Bridezilla-ness. Those are real faux gems, by the way. Straight from the Dollar Store. Miss_Strawberry had to take the picture, because JackBeck was too drunk...er...dazzled by the sheer brilliance of the real faux gems to focus the camera.



Then, we went back and had a lovely night at The Madison Hotel, which was a tres elegant place. We plan on staying there after our wedding.

4. There was a wedding party at the hotel when we got back
All of the men in full dress kilts and the ladies dressed to the nines, all in this very elegant lobby... drunk off their asses around a huge cooler of beer.

Our real faux gem rings are tres nice. I don't even mind the rash it's given me.

7. My rash went away. I must be getting used to it.
There's nothing like a group of drunken men in kilts.

I'm surprised Miss_Strawberry could see. She must be used to my blingness.

Zucchini sticks and plastic cups of beer. Classic.

But really, I think you were far too extravagant.

20. Just lovely!!!
I see one or the other of you is a pillow hog. MrG is a pillow hog and we've been happily married for 11 years this July 19th. Many happy years of hoggery to two of my most favorite people.

22. I guess I would be the pillow hog one, but all the pillows are on LostinVA's side.
I just moved them around for the sake of the picture. They were very comfy pillows, though. I wish I could have stolen them and not just little jars of jelly that said "The Madison Hotel."

Then again, I stole the mending kit. Like I'll ever use that.
