Time flies! One year ago, David and I married in one of our favorite neighborhood spots. It has been an honor to experience life with someone who is profoundly inspiring. It’s been very exciting watch one another progress into nursing and photography, and to co-exist within our rapidly evolving downtown home.

David is an extraordinary person, a loving husband, and an understanding friend. I absolutely love him and look forward to our numerous endeavors =]

We are both taking the day off and will walk over to a local restaurant of choice for dinner that we are crazy about. A hike to Griffith Park Observatory and some fierce scrabbling at the top are also on the agenda (we somehow become addicted to Scrabble during our honeymoon).

Mrs. Bullock has a few words...yes, the most wonderful wedding and reception happened. Everything was perfect...no downpours, no runaway brides/grooms, no strippers jumping out of the cake. Everything seemed to fall into place, as many had predicted.

We got the weather as we had "ordered," a gorgeous summer afternoon with some gentle breezes. Dave looked absolutely amazing in his tux, and I'll never forget how proud he looked when I first approached him. The reception was very touching and was carried off (literally) by the hubbie to take some photos and enjoy what would be the ideal reception. The presence of family members and friends made our celebration unforgettable. We had so many people go out of their way to make things fly, and that was the magic.

We had a wonderful stay at the hotel on our wedding night and left for Fiji the following evening. As far as Fiji is concerned, we couldn't have chosen a better place to honeymoon. Fiji is a very magical place and I am eager to return and blog more in detail about our adventures-so much to say and so many pictures to upload. It was very a romantic honeymoon and treasured every waking moment with Dave. Although it was sad to end our vacation, I returned with a man that I adore, to continue our own paradise with our two kitties.

Here is a site that my dear friend, Wakako, mustered up, and has some terrific photos of the rehearsal as well as the wedding.

I can hardly believe we've finished all 120 of them! Yes, we decided to go with homemade invitations because wedding invitations are terribly overpriced and often unimaginative. They have also been haunting me for the last 3 weeks.

It was going well until we found a subtle grammatical error once finished (heh heh...so typical of me), and felt compelled to start over again. There was also a glitch in the design, so that had to be changed as well.
