So, tomorrow Geoff and I will have been married for 5 months, and now I finally have our pictures in hand.  All 800 or so - holey moley.   Some are candid, some are portraits, some include combinations of people that boggle my mind when I try to imagine what they were talking about.

I put a batch together on Flickr that give a bit of a feel for the ( Read more... )

Amy noted, with some sadness, that her LJ friends page has mostly ceased to exist.  So has mine, for the most part, but in honour of Amy-who-still-posts, I update!  I was saving one of those "state of the union" updates for when we finally got our wedding photos all sorted, but no longer!

First, thanks to everybody here and all over for all the good wishes about my Mum's grad in June.  She was over the moon!

But now . . . . adorableness!  It's a long post, but I won't apologize, because it has Kittens!

Geoff's parents live in North York, in a house with a beautiful garden near one of the ravines.  As long as I've known them, they've ( Read more... )

My mum graduated from the Ontario College of Homeopathic Medicine a couple of weeks ago, and I am beyond proud of her.  Pam, Geoff and I went to her ( Read more... )

Their flesh was in varying degrees of putrefaction; the freshly ( Read more... )
