People who have read the blog over the past year have come to know the face of Libby Bugbee pretty well. She's as close to a second sister as I will ever get and I've been privileged to have her in my life for the past 15 years. Even though I've known this day was coming for a little over a year, it's amazing to me that we have officially reached her wedding weekend. Last night was the beginning of the festivities as her girlfriends took her out for a night of penis paraphernalia, wine and debauchery at the Red Bird Wine Bar in Missoula. I was feeling rather gross yesterday but I made sure to take a power nap so I could make my guest appearance at the restaurant and blog it all for you! The video comes complete with pictures from the past that make me cringe! And there is a special dance half way through by my sister and a surprise guest. I'll be blogging the rest of the events this weekend! Stay tuned.
Awww, how cute! She kind of reminds me of Wendy Whelan, no? And that's so cool - -how did you make the video look so professional, at the end with the homing in on the photos and the little captions and all -- I'm so jealous! Well, congratulations to the happy couple :)

An awwwwww from me too. They look so happy. Long-time friends are so special, right? (Yes Tonya, I can see the Wendy Whalen similarity.) Look forward to the next installment. Well I'm off to do more prep for our gigantic Labor Day party, which we fondly call Finkstock (our last name). Can you tell what era we're from?

Thanks ladies! I can see the Wendy resemblance for sure. As for the video, it is actually just made in the rinky dink editing studio known as iMovie. It gets so annoying because it's really clunky software to work with but I did what I could with it. Thanks for the compliments! I was worried that no one would care about it at all, but I thought it was pretty entertaining. It's hard when no one really knows the people. Off to the actual wedding now! AHHHH!
