| Us before the wedding... |
 |
| Take 2 |
The wedding was amazing! Well, actually the reception was amazing. The ceremony was just for immediate family and Bridal party. There was a fantastic DJ and a great band. The Bride was incredibly beautiful, but I don't want to post any pictures just yet. She had two beautiful white dresses and her hair was incredible! It was sort of twisted and to the side. So pretty. I want to get permission before I post any pics or extra info. So, you are stuck with pics of just us for now.
They had a sit down "buffet style" dinner including grilled chicken, ribs, baked potatoes, salad and garlic pita bread. I was good and avoided the carbs with the food. However, I did NOT avoid them with the alcohol. I had some wine, some more wine, a little pale ale, more wine, and then "shots shots shots", followed by...more red wine. I ended up drinking about 4 shots and at least a bottle or two of red wine. I vaguely remember a few conversations with people that I sort of know. I remember hugging one person and telling her I love her (sorry Katie!). Then, I remember twisting my ankle and falling. Yikes! I am still limping around now and had to use a crutch all day yesterday. My foot is now a nice purple and slightly larger than normal. The knee too. Hopefully the cameras did not catch any of that. They seemed to be pretty focused on the Bride, so I should be safe. I also still have a bit of a headache and hangover, so excuse any typos please! : )
What kind of blogger would I be if I didn't share a drunk pic?

Anyways, now that you all think I am a crazy drunk, I talked to my Doc today. I DO have gallstones. I am going to meet with the surgeon tomorrow to set up an operation and have my gallbladder removed. In a way, it is a blessing. I am really sick of being nauseous, having stomach pain, being bloated, having hot flashes, etc. Now I FINALLY know what has been causing so many problems for me. At the same time, I am not looking forward to another operation. I hoped that my first two operations would be my last two. However, I am told that it is a pretty easy operation. I also was told I would experience some yucky side effects, but I would lose a lot of weight. I just hope it solves my problems. Sigh. 27 and falling apart....

Hi Crystal,
I don't want to gross you out, but I had a lot of problems after the surgery. I had my gall bladder removed last year, and I haven't been the same since.
Food will go right through you, and you will need to be near bathrooms often. I also hope that if you want to loose weight (which you don't need too!!) then you will be able to. I have not lost any sense the surgery and I have tried and tried.
I had four incisions made and two of them still bother me a little.
I really, really hope for your sake that you do not have any problems from this surgery.
Best of luck!!
Sarah
I've been thinking about you and your surgery... I'm not sure when you were able to schedule it, but I hope everything goes/went well. And that you have a speedy recovery.
Good luck and know your readers care about you!
I mean, who is going to host such awesome giveaways! (just kidding)!!
