Happy One Month Anniversary



Well, Vegas was everything Vegas should be. Bright, loud, over-the-top, plastic, hot, brown, grey, and best of all, fun!

We had a blast. The wedding was what weddings should be. Relaxing, sweet, romantic, fun, officiated by Elvis.....wait! WHAT? That's right. The best part, was that through the power of technology, our friends and family were able to watch us in real time! Very very cool.

3 cheers for elopements. And a happy one month anniversary to my fantabulous husband. I am so happy you uttered these words to me last month, "What would you say if I told you we are going to Vegas next weekend to get married?". Honey, you rock!

Calm

I don't stop much. Not enough.
But tonight, I am sitting on my front porch, with a warm humid breeze blowing my hair out of its ridiculously tiny ponytail, drinking a nice glass of wine, watching the neighbors water their flowers and shrubs, watching the dogs enjoy the respite from the hot day, admiring the purply hue peaking through the clouds as the sun goes down, and playing online scrabble with some dear friends.
And I feel. calm.

I feel rested. And well. And blessed to live in such a beautiful neighborhood.
