How are those wedding plans going...

Lots of things we're working on and nOtHiNg is definite yet.

Invitations: almost there...kinda.
Florist: three possibilities. may want to create a "wishes for the couple" centerpiece. (more about that at another time).
DJ: working on getting references and demo cds.
Ties for the groomsmen, but oddly enough not for the groom: done
There's more too that hasn't even made the "we're working on it" list.

AND, we're both nursing a cold. Yay.

But it is the Lady of Laughter's birthday so Happy B-Day Ms. Snyder!

Appropriate Ending to the Summer

On Sunday we spent the morning in line for tickets and then spent the evening at Shakespeare in the Park - A Midsummer Night's Dream (an interesting choice for the end of the summer). A very nice performance, in spite of the slightly awkward chronology of title and season. But what Brooklyn summer would be complete without a trip to Coney Island? Not ours, surely. So this Labor Day weekend, along with our friend Joanna, we headed to the amusement park. We ate at Nathan's, walked the boardwalk, played lots of skee-ball and rode the rides. And while we didn't make it to the Freakshow, we managed to have a great time anyway. The Log Flume was very refreshing on the warm summer day, and it was Amanda's first-ever ride on the world-famous Cyclone (possibly the best wooden roller coaster in existence.)

What's the "proper" attire for the bride and groom?

Maybe we don't need to wear typical wedding clothes. Who needs a ravishing gown or an elegant suit when inflatable ware exists?
Probably should be out looking for a DJ or florist instead of rifling through pictures of the summer, but how could we resist putting up these made for each other pictures?
