The Highlands Revisited

My mom came up for a visit on a Friday in October (yeah I've been really bad at posting). My MOH, my mom and I headed up to the site since neither of them had seen it yet. I'm really glad my mom liked it, because it was a little too late - we already put in the contract and deposit!

Warning: Apparently I stink a little at taking clear pictures.
I think this is still good example of the size of the place though.

Entrance Hall - stairs leading down from the bridal and groomal (as Nick says) dressing rooms.
That large doorway leads into the dancing room.
Hi Mom! This is the first room to the left as you walk in.
Hi Mom! Don't kill me for these pictures! This is the first room to the right as you walk in. To the right of my mother is another doorway that leads to a bathroom, the third room and the outside.
This is not the last time Mom! Here is the third room. It is further on the right from the room you just saw.
Jill has sneaked into this one as well! I'm standing close to the back of the dancing room. That rug will be moved and weather permitting, the windows can be thrown open along with the door!
The garden outside where we will have the ceremony.
My mom and I standing in front of where Nick and I will be officially married!

The Kids of the Wedding Party

Nick has several adorable nieces and nephew (only one of these!) We've mentioned it to the parents but I guess haven't officially asked all of them yet. They were in Nick's brother's wedding in the same positions and we'd be honored to have them in ours as well!

Molly Bailot (Head Flower Girl Extraordinaire)
Here is Molly taking her duties very seriously at Nick's brother's wedding.
She is going to be the ripe old age of 9 at our wedding and she has been a big sister
for a bit over a year now so she can handle the other rascal flower girls.

Kacy Murphy (Flower Girl)1st rascal flowergirl on her 1st day of school this year - adorable!

Annika Murphy (Flower Girl)
This is Ani all the way - playing dress up and having a grand ole' time.

Toby Murphy (Kick butt and take names Ring Bearer)I'm serious about this. He is at least a purple belt. I'm putting him on guard duty for the rest of the night.
If you don't have enough fun, he'll kick you in the shin.
