Beth & Hunter's Sewanee Wedding | June 11, 2011

Beth and Hunter had an incredible combination of amazing beauty and epic fun during their wedding. The ceremony was at All Saints Chapel and the reception took place at the Hurst house near the football field. Ken Taylor did the always incredible job coorindating and providing exquisite floral and light displays while Jayne Slagle provided all of the delicious food and libations. Angie White produced another incredible cake that was decorated with all kinds of flowers in great summer colors.

The party really got started when the sunglasses came out - of course it's coolest to wear them after the sun goes down. To everyone's suprise and delight, late-night Krystal burgers were delivered and passed around (since school wasn't in session, I suppose this was the closest thing to some Sewanee midnight breakfast at the Pub). They left in true Sewanee style, speeding away with gravel flying and sirens wailing in a Sewanee Police car.

Beth looked amazing and Hunter looked like he was on cloud 9. All in all a great day! Check out the slideshow below. The full set can be viewed here!

A few more shots of Caroline

We took a few family photos yesterday. Martha's mom helped snap some shots of us. One of them I especially love - she looks at me with these big baby blue eyes and it just melts my heart.

We had a few friends stop by, so I wanted to get some quick shots of them holding her as well.

I also snapped a couple of iPhone photos of the what the house looked like when we came home (thanks to friend and neighbor, Russelle), and another shot of sweet Abbo with his new little sister.

It's a Girl! Caroline Elizabeth Goodyear's first few days

I can now say I'm a father and it feels great! Martha gave birth to our beautiful daughter Caroline on Wednesday morning. I couldn't be more proud. Over the last few days, we've had no sleep, but have had so much fun it shouldn't be legal.

You'd think I would have taken a ton of photos by now, but these are the main ones...I'm holding more dirty diapers and the camera, but once that gets more routine, I'll be sure to take more.

For now, you can see her from an hour after she was born to 4 days later including some happy Grandparents, her first bath at home, and Abbo, our dog, who is in love with her and follows her everywhere we take her, always keeping watch.

I can't say enough thanks to my wife, Martha, for putting up with 10+ weeks of bedrest and all of the hard work, pain, and sleepless nights she has endured to get to this point. She is a trooper!

If you have called or emailed for photos of your family over the last few days, I will return them soon! As you can see, we've been a little occupied, but are loving every second of it!
