New Air Hockey Table

Wicked photo, Octavio…taken with his iPhone.
Take a minute and breathe.
August 19th, 2007 RachelThis is the big week - all of a sudden, the wedding is here, and though that’s meant that my activity here dwindled down to nothing, sometimes other things need to take precedence…and the last four weeks have been full of “things”.
I’m at LAX, with my big, poofy white bag - Wedding store name emblazoned on the top just to make sure that anyone and everyone notices that I’m getting married and this is my dress. Congratuations all around and one of the guys running the security check asked for me to “bring photos! we want to see how it goes!” - creepy, yes. But what else is there to do but smile and nod when they’re holding the key to getting on that plane?
Reflecting on the last sixteen months of planning (okay. I really didn’t start planning anything until 12 months out - and then I didn’t really really start nailing the details down until February of this year.), there’s a lot I learned and many of those little “if I knew then what I know now” kinds of things. But it’s all come together - and I’ve only had one semi-meltdown about a table that went from 9 people to 7.
But it doesn’t matter. None of the silly little things like the wedding programs being the wrong color (they did) or not having a wedding band until a week before (again…true) are going to get in the way of this…because then I’ll miss it. And this is it.
So, I’ll try to get a couple more entries in while the last details are checked of the list and family and friends start to trickle in.
Life is good, and this week is going to be amazing.
