    I am trying to focus on work, but wedding planning is taking over my brain. I think I had a wedding related dream each day over the long weekend.

    Am down to 74 days and I still need to figure out what the heck to wear to my own wedding reception. Oops. I have a choice of two dresses. I am in love with one, but I don't like how it makes my mid section look. The other dress is beautiful too and I don't worry about the midsection at all, but I can't get the first dress out of my head.

    I'm going to a tailor/seamstress this weekend to see what we can do, otherwise I'll go with the second dress. Then I can finally buy shoes and jewelry.

    I'm here as well... I'm working on a larger version of our wedding album... a hard cover gift to my inlaws when we visit them again for the first time after our wedding.

    It's through inkubook.com, who gives a free second book, if you finish your album and buy it within 2 weeks of opening an account!!

    It looks spectacular, I have to complete the reception pictures, and pictures of our home...

    We bought about a year ago, but my inlaws live in India, and haven't seen our home yet...

    This view is from the super comfy couch, that once you sit on, no one wants to get up from.  On the left side, is the patio door overlooking our backyard and golf course.

    Continuing Right, (I was playing with settings in my camera, especially color filters)

    And more right, into the kitchen.

    We bought a foreclosed home, and the whole inside was redone... 

    <a href="http://www.kand2k.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.kand2k.com/</a> Click on ~Memories~ and then Our Home... about 50 pictures or so. 

    The pictures above were from just this last weekend.  I was taking some details about my outfits, so that I could incorporate them as backgrounds for other pictures in the photo album...

    And some shoes - that was a blue filter on the fake sparklies, they are normally white, but wanted to see what the filters would do...

    Those are some great shots of your dress!!  Great home, it reminds me of my FSIL place before she moved.

    We moved a week ago and I've been busy settling in and unpacking. We're almost settled in - another few boxes to unpack and some furniture to rearrange, and hopefully in the next couple of weeks I can get the paint opened and stirred and determine which colors we're putting on our (plain white and very boring) walls. After that I have to borrow some friends to help me paint. I don't wanna do it all myself. FI is working more hours lately and understandably doesn't like to do "house stuff" on his day off.

    Thanks everyone :) I was missing some shots, but also figuring out all the features of our dslr camera as well :)


    HisBelovedOne - Yay for moving in!!  It's a lengthy process :)  Putting the last box out to the recyclers definitely is a good feeling!!  Good Luck with painting :):)
