back to reality

Whew. In case you've never been there (I hadn't), the Big Island of Hawai'i? Is beautiful. We just got back this last weekend. I took a bunch of pictures that I can't show you yet because they're in old-school slide form yet to be developed. Partly this is because I am somewhat old-school in attitude, and partly this is because I am not-rich and have no digital SLR (used "my" old standby Nikon N70 which technically belongs to my dad, but we share it). I did once have a little pocket-size digicam, but it had a fatal chip attack a few months ago. So. Patience.

The theme, or perhaps mascot, or symbol of our honeymoon trip I have decreed to be TURTLES.

who's a princess? i am i am

okay, i have both a makeup and a hair person now (have had since shortly after that last post, but it's been a bit hectic 'round here). and we are back to the original hair plan which is piles o curls cascading partly down the back. because my dress is rather poofy and so i felt the hair needed some poof to balance. wow, i'm going to be married by this time tomorrow. wow.
