Thanks for your patience.

I’d like to thank all the people who sent me email or left comments on my wedding. I really really appreciate it.

For those who are interested, the entire day was wonderful. Not fairy-tale perfect – which isn’t really my thing anyway – but perfect enough for me. I am surprised at how quickly it all went. If you ask me, the ceremony lasted about 4 minutes and the reception no more than an hour. If you ask anyone else, the ceremony was 25 and the reception was 4 hours. I wish I remembered more! Now I just have to sit here and wait patiently for my photo proofs to see everything that went on.

I finished the thank you cards tonight. Besides the photos, I think that was the last wedding related thing I had to do. Awww. I am a little sad. Is it a little premature to be looking forward to when I might have a daughter who is getting married so I can help with the wedding? Yeah, I though so.

But honestly, the best part of the whole thing was having a week off work. We went up to Lake Geneva WI for five days and enjoyed the sun, water, and unhealthy food. It was nice and relaxing - a good use of every single vacation hour I had saved up!

We found a yarn store somewhat nearby (Needles 'n Pins Yarn Shoppe in Delevan, WI) and stopped by one afternoon. (heh. Wonder who’s idea that was…) I only purchased a few things: a skein of Cascade 220 for a felted bunny, the somewhat difficult to find Regia Jubilee in India, and my first ever Koigu KPPPM. It was a great shop - I could have spend a fortune and a few more hours there.





I have a ton more photos I want to post, but don't want to bore people with them. Sometime in the future I am going to set up and online album and just post the link.

OK – thanks everyone for indulging me. This is very shortly going to return to a proper knitting blog. Tomorrow, actually, if I can get my act together!

I'm sure you will forgive me for not posting

...when you hear that my wedding is in two days (June 26th).


Here are a few shots of a few things that have kept me busy these last weeks. The guestbook is a little different. "Scrapbook-style" is the best way to describe it I think. Each couple/group/family has a designated page to sign and the photographer has a matching list of groups to photograph, so the pictures can be added in later. I am pleased at the final result, and hope it works well.





One of the favors I have are these little heart tins with pink and silver M&Ms. I don't think you can read them here, but half read "Sarah and Steve" and the other half reads "June 26, 2005". Pretty snazzy, eh?






Oh yeah, I finished my Opal socks last week. See, I do still knit. I received this skein as a drawing prize from the Opal Chatters yahoo group. Yay me!






(OK, so there are still needles in the toe of one. It needs grafting and I do not have the patience for it now!)
