wedding photo overload
Yay wedding photos! You can click on photos within the slideshow to get slightly larger images. If you want any higher-resolution images, let us know =) We're also planning on sending copies of the disc Marielle sent us to Lane's parents and my mom. We really loved working with our photographer, Marielle Hayes, and can't recommend her enough.

apple fest 2011!
Lane and I woke up this morning to a cold DARK dreary day. At first we thought it was just too early to get up... but it was 7am, and pitch black outside. FOG. Lots of FOG. Can't see 20 feet in front of you fog. We resigned ourselves to staying inside all day, but then we realized it was Apple Fest.
What is Apple Fest, you ask? Ah, you poor ignorant non-upstate New Yorkers, it is just one of the most glorious Fall activities ever to grace the face of Ithaca Commons. This, however, is coming from the view of someone who has been stuck in the house or reading in the car day in and day out for the past month or so. Apple Fest has lots of apples (which, funnily, we got no actual pictures of)... and apple-related deliciousness... as well as just general deliciousness (these, thankfully, we did get pictures of)
apple related deliciousness:
general deliciousness... Lane and I were very happy about lunch
we didn't want to stay too late, but if we had, we would have tried to go see this:
That, my friends, is what we call bitter cold. It was pretty much drizzling the whole time.
We tried to convince a sheep goat thing to lend me its sweater...
We noticed it eyeing the bag of baked goods in my hand... Lane and I backed away.
There's no way we would ever give these up:
So, like I said, pretty much one of the best Fall activities ever... Even if we count the applicious-baked-good-coveting-never-learned-how-to-share (only knows how to be sheared) sheep goat thing.

| we couldn't figure out if the sign on the left meant "Apple Cider & Donuts" OR the mindblowing option of actual "Apple Cider Donuts". THAT would be incredible. |

| yum yum |
 |
| yummy Italian sausages one with peppers, the other without, with DELICIOUS sauce. *drool* |
we didn't want to stay too late, but if we had, we would have tried to go see this:
Even though the fog had lifted, it was still pretty cold. We were able to nobly fight the chill off for a while with hot apple cider and funnel cake, but really there is only so much you can do. Look how cold people were!

house sweet house
We've been living out here for about a month and a half now, so I guess it's time we post pictures of our house. Not the most entertaining thing, but I know there will be at least a few people who have been waiting to see pictures of our first home together. I was brushing my teeth last night, and realized that I was actually living with Lane. It was a weird experience. Anyway, moving on...
So this is where we live... and I deep cleaned everything again today, after I suffered a bout of allergies. That's the thing about having more space than we actually need - there's so much more to clean!
