I'm Mrs. Als!

Well, I hope I still have some faithful readers out there because my blog has been completely neglected for a few weeks now. Kind of like my running and working out. But have to get back on the horse so to speak!  But the wedding... so worth all the time away from normal things :)

The wedding was hands down the best, ever, period. OMG! Loved every second of it, we were world's luckiest, most loved couple. Recapping the day/night with friends and family has been almost nonstop since, we're all going through a little wedding post partum.

I'm in the process of putting up pictures on the site, will let you know when they're all up. Right now I only have the engagement and rehearsal dinner pictures up. Our pictures turned out BEAUTIFUL thanks to my grandpa, uncle Paul and Amy Graybill.  We're (I'm) pretty much obsessed!

There are lots more things to explain about the wedding but I'm saving it for the wedding blog as part of my virtual scrapbook!

Christian left on Friday and it was definitely hard to say goodbye to my handsome hubby. He was so sick, poor thing.  Well, we both were!

I wanted to share a story with you all that restored my faith in the world a little bit. Christian realized once he got to Paris for his connecting flight that he was missing his wallet (a rubberband around a wad of cash and cards). Other than on the first plane the only other place it could be was in the Zipcar we took to the airport.

I woke up to Chr's message and called Zipcar but no one had reported it and the car was already rented for the whole day.  But low and behold technology prevails and Christian gets a Facebook message from a kid who found his "things". By the nature of Zipcars there could have been 20 different people in and out of it before this guy.  I was pretty sure the money had gone missing and only the cards were left.

Anyway I met what turned out to be a mere high school kid in front of Trader Joes and he handed me the wad, cash and all! I was so shocked and so happy. I handed him $50 for being such a great samaritan. Love Brookline, a real stand-up community!

This post feels like I'm rambling but that's only because I have so much to tell you, or my computer rather. Ahhhh.

More to come!

By the way - sending in my change of name to Social Security this week.  Should I keep my middle name as Michelle or change it to Curley?  Either way I'll go by Jill/Jillian Als.  Just wondering if I should honor Curley in my middle name, just sounds awful - Jillian Curley Als bahhh. Thoughts?
