Gather ’round the digital glow of your computers, my dear friends, for I’m about to weave a yarn (that’s authentic frontier gibberish for ‘tell a story’) about a couple of old and dear friends to the Otis & James FunCenter, none other than the always wonderful and beautiful Alison & Jason!
It seems just like yesterday, and yet it seems like a lifetime ago that they first entered into our lives. Â We were at our old location, and I’m pretty sure that Jamie was still in High School. Â Anyway, they strolled on into our lives, we took some snaps, and they told us that they were going to be getting married in a few years, and wanted us to be a part of the day!
Now, at first, Otis was excited, because he thought that he might be asked to be the flowergirl, but after he calmed down Jamie helped him realize that we would be the photog’s. Â That’s professional speak for ‘photographer’, or ‘pictosnapper’, in case you were wondering. Â At the time, it seemed wild to book us for something that was so far in the distance. Â I remember way back when they booked us, everyone thought that by 2008 there would be flying cars, and we would all have food replicators in our kitchens, and robot’s named Rosie would clean our houses for us. Â Alright, so apparently I thought the future was going to be an episode of The Jetson’s, but I’m not a scientist, alright. Â Cut me some slack here.
Well, the days led to weeks, and those led to months, and before we knew it, we were staring down this momentous and once oh so far away day right in the face! Â And I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Â All of the anticipation, all of the hype leading up to this day – it was all worth it; because the day was totally and completely wonderful!
This was made possible not via a grant from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, this was made possible neither from viewers like you, it was made possible by none other than Alison, Jason the Wedding Party and their families! Â They were all wonderful, and we truly thank them for making the day so great!
Well, I’ve sauntered down this avenue of words a little bit too long, and it’s now time for us to give MuchLove & ManyThanks to this lovely couple for letting us be a part of their day, and to all the good people of blogville enjoying an evening so wonderful – Enjoy!
