Mandy and Brian Dombach

The wedding was really nice.  Mandy was absolutely stunning.  Meg did a fantastic job with everyone's hair and makeup. It was cold and there was a beautiful light snow shower.  I was not the official photogrhwr. But I still took over 700 pictures!!! Here's a FEW of my favorites... 

Jaylee & Jennibelle got to ride to the wedding in the Limo alone.  The welcomed everyone to the church, had them finger print the tree picture and helped seat them. 

Jaylee and Morgan sang Welcome To The Family by Psalty

They did FANTASTIC!!

Dancing to the bag pipe...

The Dean Center in Wellsboro, PA.

Jennibelle gave a speech...  "M is for Mandylicious..."

"I won't give up on us"

Jimmy was NOT interested in dancing until... We let him take his shirt off, like the Hulk- then he was unstoppable.  Especially when they played the Iron Man Song.  

Jaylee takes the coolest pictures...

I LOVED Jason's new outfit.  LOVE his new look!

Maybe Brian should hang out with him more...  

Jaylee was a little less excited to get out there and dance.  She now enjoys hanging with the adults. So, this is how we fix that...  LOL

The girls and I drove up Friday morning we took our time and had fun. Then we helped decorate, had the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner.  We got a suite which was fun!  

Sunday we Stringhams headed out the the PA Grand Canyon. We did not get to hike because of the cold and snow.  So, we headed to Animaland.  (Scary back-woods "zoo" that STUNK like cat pee.)

Jennibelle's Orthodontic Story

Jennibelle's orthodontist had a contest for the most creative story about orthodontics.  There was a $200 prize for each age group. Unfortunately she did not win.  She loves to write creative stories... Especially about mustaches!?!

    Monsters Have Orthodontists Too

Once upon a time there was a little girl named Suzie who had a friend named Billy. Everyone in Suzie's family thought Billy wasn't real. They thought he was just imaginary. But that was because he was invisible and only Suzie could see him because she was special, she could do things no one else could do! She can travel to Monster World and when she did she could see Billy. Anyway... One day Suzie's mom called Suzie for dinner. They were having delicious chicken noodle soup! While they were  slurping down their soup Suzie's mom said "Suzie your father is going to take you to the orthodontist tomorrow at 10:00 AM!"

Suzie has never gone to the orthodontist! She was worried and confused. Suzie asked her mom "what is an Orthodontist?"  Her mom answered in a sweet voice "well an Orthodontist is kind of like a Dentist. But it's where you would go to get braces or a retainer. It's nothing to be afraid of!" "Oh" Suzie said as she cleared her plate and went up stairs. "BILLY BILLY!!!" She yelled as she got in her room. "WHAT?" Billy yelled. "I have to go to the Orthodontist tomorrow!" She said sadly. "What's so wrong with that?" He asked. "Everything! I'm so scared!" She yelled. 

"Why are you scared?" Billy asked, confused.

"Why wouldn't I be?" She said.

"You don't even have a Dentist in your monster world!" she continued.

"YES WE DO!" Billy yelled!

"Really?"

"Yes"

 "Oh ... were you scared when you went there your first time?" She asked.

"Well yes, but I'm not any more!" Billy said cheerfully. "Why don't I take you to Monster World and show you how I sit and behave at the Orthodontist!" Billy said. 

"Ok" Suzie said!  So they put their hands together and Billy said the magic words "BITTY BITTY BUM BUM"

And off they went to Monster World! When they got to Monster World they headed strait for the Orthodontist! When they got there Billy signed in and saw that he would have his checkup in 6 minutes, so they sat at in the waiting area for 6 minutes. Finally Billy's name was called. They both got up and went to the lady that said "Follow me." Sooo, they followed her to the room.

Billy knew just what to do... He sat down on the BIG chair and let the Orthodontist put that little paper thing around his neck. The Orthodontist was doing losts of things to his teeth, like putting BRACES ON HIS TEETH!!! Suzie asked why they do braces and the Orthodontist said "they are going to make his teeth straight." "Does it Hurt?" Suzie asked. 

"Nope not at all" Billy said. Billy finished and got a sticker and a tooth brush! I think it's time to go home! So they put there hands together and said the magic words... "BITTY BITTY BUM BUM" and off they went! Suzie and Billy went to sleep. The next day it was time  for Suzie to leave to go to the Orthodontist! But before she left Billy said "Don't worry!" "I won't!" Said Suzie! She left for an hour and came running inside and went up to her room te show Billy her NEW BRACES!!!! 

                    THE END!

Mandy's Bachelorette Party

It started as a Pinterest themed evening at Reology Stidio in Lancaster with 5 of Mamdy's closest friends.  Then dinner at Press Room, where we literally squeezed into our table, snacked on burnt rolls and had to yell because of the incredibly loud band playing.  Then us sisters and Jess Shaub went dancing at Atonna.  Mandy busted out the entire "Whip and Nay Nay" dance!!! Jess just found out she has breast cancer, so I'm glad she got to go out and shake her troubles away.  I think Mandy had a nice time!! 

Darn you, Red Bull and Vodkas.  I slept for two days!  I'm old...
