Gina and Tim's buffalo wedding and 2 week disneymoon 6/15 day 5 and 6

I voted for the pinny poo, I love it's cute little face.

Great pics!

I picked the dachsund/poodle. My experience with min pins and chihuahuas are they are hyper. Poodles can be, but they don't shed! (of course that means you have to trim their hair). Dachsunds have always been fairly calm for little dogs! And they're pretty brave.

Gina, as for advice about telling whom ever you decided not to buy the puppy from, I would just say that you did some research and decided that another breed would be the best match for you!

Another Paco the Chihuahua story.....,
We really tried to socialize him well when he was a puppy, I had a little purse that I carried him to T-ball and softball games almost every evening in the summer. He was friendly and seemed to like everyone then...
Winter came and well, we just didn't get him out much, but as Baylor started to have friends come over he became aggressive towards strangers. Well I can't even say strangers, he goes after anyone that wasn't a core member of the family when he was a puppy. He has known the neighbor kids for years and hates them. We even have to muzzle him when our granddaughter is over. She has been a regular visitor since she was tiny. I thought as she grew he would get used to her but I caught him sneaking over to nip her the other day....

Beautiful Pics!!
Of course I'm a Bills fan!! I have a secret crush on T.O. now too!

I am currently in Tonwanda but I grew up in Williamsville.

Your pics at the Gallery are so stunning! Really beautiful!

I just wanted to thank everyone for their votes in my puppy poll. I had decided to go with the pinny poo chihuahua because the owner emailed me such details about her family and everything else that I felt like it was right. I never told the other lady that I did not want the doxie poo just in case, and had planned on emailing her this week with my decision. However I have since stopped hearing back from either of them. So I guess it is back to square one for us and the puppy. I really don't want to go through the hunting online again especially because there is always that chance the dog won't like us. There was that chance with these 2 also, but I felt like the people I was dealing with were different.

Beautiful Pics!!

We LOVE the bills... and since we no longer live in Buffalo.. my husband gets excited for the schedule to come out just so he can see what games are close enough for us to go to. We were looking at TN, ATL, and KC this year. TN sold out but we will probably get tickets on stubhub. KC we went to last year and it was a blast! (It helps that was one of the games we won!!) The hotel was walking distance to the stadium and was full of bills fans!!

Thank you all for the picture compliments. Tim has told me that he is halfway through the reception pictures (on top of packing our stuff up while I am at work). We are supposed to close on Friday. If all goes well we will be moved in mostly this weekend.

I know I am a bit late for your puppy poll but I would have to got with the min pin mix....as you can see by my avatar that is my boy Ziggy! He is a min pin and is very sweet albeit to a few kids who are a bit aggressive towards him. He is seven years old and I drop him off at my parents every day for day care while I am work. He doesn't mind being left alone there but if I leave my house he goes crazy if I don't take him. I guess you could say that makes him a bit high maintenance! He is a very animated dog and loves to cuddle. The daschund mix would be good too but a few people I know have had problems with their backs? The most important thing with any small dog is no people food so they do not become overweight....it is easy for a small dog to pack on the pounds!!
Phew!! That being said... your pictures are stunning! I love the colors, the backgrounds and you had a beautiful bouquet
Looking forward to more of your report AND more pictures!!!

Aw look at your cute little dog!! I have always wanted a maltese or a maltese mix and am just having the hardest time finding one. And that little pinnypoo chihuahua was just too cute... but like I said, the lady hasnt responded to my phone calls or emails in a week.
Thank you for the compliments! I am really happy with our pictures. I want so bad to just get on with this report but the dumb pictures aren't on the computer yet and I am so busy with work I can't even think that I have patience for it all. After we move I will have Tim finish those up so I can get this thing goin.

Oy the new home! We are closing tomorrow!! And hopefully getting mostly moved in this weekend. I am not really sure how it will all work since I need to be able to go to work Monday morning. I wish I could just take a day off, but the 2nd week of school I would NEVER do that to my kids or a substitute! I will keep you posted!

 

[snowwhite325]

I've been enjoying your TR!
I'm from Buffalo too and of course love the Bills...wearing my new Bills shirt as I type this

 

[tinkabella627]

Hey everyone!! We are all moved in!! I am not sure how I am on the internet though because we don't have internet so I am just typing to say that I will be back in a week or two to finish the updates. We got our photopass cd. And we got a puppy! It is a shih tzu and his name is Roscoe (named after Roscoe Parrish from the Buffalo bills...even though he may be traded ) I am off to go finish some plans for the week and try to teach Roscoe NOT to use the bathroom in the house!!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Awesome news about your move! I'm sure you've been super busy. Good luck on the potty training, are you using a crate?
Can't wait to see pics of Roscoe, I used to have a Great Dane named Roscoe.

 

[tinkabella627]

ok I finally have time to do this so I am officially back!! I am going to write about our reception, day 1, and then do a house/puppy update!!

So we left off with the photo session... after these were finished, we went to the reception. I needed to get my train bustled and unfortunately my best friend from TN was unable to make it to the wedding and she was the one who was doing my bustle... it was a hard bustle. Well after 20 minutes and 4 adult women trying to bustle my dress (it kept falling), Tim's aunt got some pins and we pinned it up. It turned out fantastic!! I wish I woulda known... coulda saved a couple hundred dollars!!

The reception was amazing!! I hated my dj lol but we still had a good time! When it was time for our introductions, everyone besides us came in to You've Got a Friend in Me...from Toy Story... because it makes me think of Pizza Planet in DHS lol... WE of course came in to the Buffalo Bills shout song. People from buffalo know how everyone claps at a bills game during this.... EVERYONE at our reception did the clap AND the repeating parts of the song. It was by far the best entrance ever (ok...I am a little biased lol) Here is the head table having a good time during the shout song..

Oh... I also want to show off my home made card box...

(We got engaged in Disney and displayed our cards on the table)

After our entrance were the speeches... we had 4 of them.. my dad welcomed everyone, the best man called me Tina, instead of Gina (it's because people mix Tim and Gina all the time... tim never dated a tina lol), the moh was the sweetest ever, and my brother gave a speech and got all choked up. He really does love me haha

After dinner, we went to cut the cake. Before we did, my godmother gave us a gift she got us while she was in Disney. One was the Mickey/Minnie bride/groom salt/pepper shakers...those broke on our move to our new house it took all of me not to cry. The other was this...

We decided that we were not going to smash the cake. So we nicely fed the cake (the ONLY bite of my cake that I got ) and then did the nice kiss.

Well tim's cousin and jr gm wanted him to smash it so tim pretended to hold me back. The photographer wanted him to do it again so she could take a picture. I gave Harry (the cousin) a tiny piece of cake and told him to PRETEND to smash it in my face... I am sure you know where this is going...

Here I am ducking away... he ended up getting me...

Here I am wiping it off. What we dont have on film is the cake hitting me and that I went back and got it on him. I wasn't mad don't worry!

After all this hooplah we went to do our first dance, the bridal party dance, father daughter, and mother son... I am only posting our dance.

We danced a bit.. took some fun pics with friends.. like this (We played softball together.. she played 1st I played 2nd.. our team was awful and the 2 of us pretty much made all the plays so we did superstar a lot... so here it is)

Then more dancing and the bouquet/garter...

Before this my dad snuck up on him and told him not to go too far..it was pretty entertaining...

We danced some more and then left. The next day we relaxed and left Monday for our two week Disneymoon!!!!

Up next... Day 1 in disney FINALLY

 

[tinkabella627]

Monday June 29...

It was FINALLY the day of our two week disneymoon. I am NOT a morning person at all and we had to leave I think at around 4am. But I was so excited to be married and on my way to Disney I was raring to go!

I have no airport/plane pictures and my details may be sparse... I'm sorry. It's been a while!

We got to Disney and in line for the Magical Express. We got right on!! Our first week we stayed at Pop Century. We did this so that we could afford the 2nd week and stay where we wanted..

After we got our room (which I think was maybe 2 or 3 hours after we got there... we hung out at Everything Pop because we were so tired) we got ready and headed to the boardwalk. I don't recall ever being here. And if I had been... not in the past 5 years. So I took a couple pictures...

And off we went to ESPN zone. Tim had been wanting to eat here since we went in 07 so we made sure to do it. I LOVED it and we ended up going back later in the trip. Don't ask me what foods we got because I didn't write a thing down and didn't take pics, but it was declicious. I know mine was loaded nachos (or whatever they are called). I am not sure what Tim got. But it was a TON of food.

Here we are before the food came...

And the napkin. I thought they were cute!

After we ate we walked around and looked for anything from any buffalo sports team.
We took a seat on the big comfy chairs...

And then found this...

Jim Kelly's jersey. I LOVE what he wrote. He is such a good guy in Buffalo.

On the way out we found this...

And then I bought a t-shirt that says (front)

(Back)

Haha I thought it was cute. Speaking of... idk where that shirt is I hate moving lol

I took a couple pics of the boardwalk

and then THOUGHT we were walking back to where we needed to be to get on the boat or whatever it was we were trying to find... needless to say... I led the way and walked us all the way back to DHS

I guess it was good to work off all the calories we just ate haha

We got back to the hotel and took a couple pictures.

Up next... a break from the trip report to show you my house and introduce you to Roscoe!!

 

[tinkabella627]

As you know, we finally moved into our brand new house. It was a long process and quite a headache...but I LOVE our house... here are some pics..

The outside (this was taken before moving in, we have grass and landscaping now.)

The front hallway

The office (it is not finished yet... all that sports stuff needs to be hung up and it needs to be organized a little better)

The guest room

(We have a guest bathroom but Tim took pics and didn't take good ones of it. We have 3 disney postcards hanging in there in frames... I will post those)

The living room

The kitchen

The dining area

Our master bedroom

Our master bathroom

Our outdoor patio with fireplace

Our bonus room upstairs that we are currently using as a catch all lol

 

[tinkabella627]

And finally... my last update for the day... we got our puppy the day after we moved into our house... his name is Roscoe and he is a shih tzu...

Up next...day 2 at MK/Epcot.... did I FINALLY get someone to go on the teacups with me?!

 

[Raecheal]

Great update hun, I love the photos of Roscoe... he's absolutely adorable!!! How's the potty training going? The house looks beautiful... oohhh... disneyyyyy part of your TR..

 

[micandminforever]

Great pictures from Boardwalk.

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Gina, what a great update!
First I'll comment on the wedding, everything turned out so beautifully. I'm glad you got the problem taken care of with the train.
Your new home is gorgeous! Are you having fun decorating? I can't wait to see pictures of your new lawn and landscaping! How cool to have that patio and outdoor fireplace!
Roscoe is such a cutie! How is life with a puppy? It looks like he enjoys a good chew!
It looks like you guys got a great start on your Disneymoon at ESPN club, isn't the Boardwalk a fun area?

 

[tinkabella627]

Thanks! Roscoe is so cute but potty training OYYY it is killing me!! How long did it take you and what did you guys do? He hates to be locked up when we leave and he won't stop crying if we lock him up at night! I hope the disney part of the tr is good... I didn't write a thing down and am doing things by memory from the pictures lol if nothing else there will be some good pictures haha

Great pictures from Boardwalk.

thanks! we took a few more.

Thank you! That train was such an ordeal. We had no idea why it wouldn't stay up! The girl at davids bridal did it so easily!

We haven't decorated too too much in the house yet. We have a ton of frames and no pictures in them. We are waiting to get our wedding pictures but we keep changing our minds on what to order and I have a ton of questions to ask my photographer but haven't gotten ahold of him yet.

The patio and fireplace were an upgrade that we paid for but we figure it will help with resale when that time comes.

Roscoe is a handfull! He has barely learned his name still haha. He is cutting teeth so he does chew, but luckily he doesn't chew things he isn't supposed to. The only thing he chews, that he probably shouldn't, is Tim's shoe, but it is an old one so Tim doesn't care, and he doesn't think he is allowed to chew other shoes so we let it go.

The boardwalk area is so nice! What hotels are over there?
