Since we've shown off our houses it's now time to move onto something new. Kellyis starting out having us show off our wedding dress. Here's the only scanned photo I have of Michael and I where you can see my entire dress.
I bought it from this small bridal shop in Renton...it's closed now. I think it was the second time I had been in to try on dresses and I was having the hardest time finding anything I like. I remembered reading this article in a bride magazine where this girls dad actually picked out her dress. Well that happened to me...I had tried on so many dresses that day and I was getting tired. My dad showed me this dress and I kid you not it look so awful on the hanger. I was not going to try it on. But after a little coaxing I decided I would and then take it off really fast. I remember the moment I turned around and looked in the mirror...that was THE dress. It was a brand new spring style for 1999. In fact they had just put it out on the rack that day so needless to say we didn't get it for a steal.
Hi my name is Lyndsay...I was name after the actress Lindsay Wagner. My brothers name is Ryan so my mom thought it would be fun to spell my name with an Ly to match his. I didn't meet another person who spelled their name like me until I was in high school. Speaking of high school that's where I met my husband. We were both 16 years old. We got engaged at 17 and were married on May 8th, 1999 when we were 18 years. We struggled for 6 years with infertility, but then on January 15th, 2007 God blessed us with Owen. After that the kids started popping out..Jack was next, Ella our only girl and finally we finished at the end of the alphabet with Zeke. I'm a stay at home mom and I volunteer at church and school. Life is crazy, but life is good!
