Day 244 - September 2, 2012 - Welcome to PR!

So two days worth of postings for this photo blog are probably reversed now because apparently today is the day that I'm in full retard mode. We finally made it to PR to relax and enjoy our honeymoon!

Day 245 - September 3, 2012 - PR has lots of chandeliers

This chandelier in the El San Juan hotel was one of the few chandelier sightings I had during our trip to PR for our honeymoon. I guess every place has chandeliers lol, myself and the phantom phans are the only lunatics who get excited to see them, maybe their are chandelier buffs out there too!

Day 243 - September 1, 2012 - Eating action shot

So despite the fact that today was my own wedding, I still managed to bust out my camera and snap a couple of shots. Not as many as I would have liked but a couple. This photo is a cheesy action shot of my new official brother - in - law enjoying the wedding feast. Next to him is his new squeeze Kelly who happens to be pretty awesome! This would make a great ad for the fun you could have at Westbury Manor.

Day 242 - August 31, 2012 - Nail Party!

We had manis and pedis done before the wedding. Shown here are mostly everyone's toe nails who participated in the nail party. Franca, Terry, Nonny, Anabel, Sue, Janell, Janellyn and myself all had our nails done at the same place. Of course me being me, this little relaxation attempt turned into a panic. I left my wallet at home when I was cleaning out my purse, I couldn't find it to pay for my nails and thought the day before the wedding and before the PR trip that I might have lost it. Turns out thankfully it just fell on the couch and Shawn found it.

Day 241 - August 30, 2012 - A quasi glimpse of the future for Shawn

We had our rehearsal for the wedding and dinner tonight. My dad fell asleep during the dinner on the couch, something that he commonly does. Among the few photos I took of the rehearsal dinner this was one of them. I'm like my father more then I'm like my mother (although as much as I hate to admit it, I'm a little bit like her as well :( ) and I did end up falling asleep in the car just like my dad does when we were in PR on the honeymoon. Wondering if poor Shawn is going to have to wake me up at family functions in the future.

Day 240 - August 29, 2012 - Welcome to NY and to America Franca!

Shawn's mom Terry became pen pals with this lovely lady Franca, shown here in the photo with Shawn's mom. A very long time ago when Terry was a teenager she went to Holland to visit Franca and stay with her family. These two ladies kept in touch with each other for years, sending photos back and forth. After almost 50 years Terry returned the favor to Franca by opening up our house for Franca to stay in for her first visit to America. This is a photo taken after we had picked up Franca from JFK and then did some last minute business with the Westbury Manor.

Day 239 - August 28, 2012 - Zoot suit riot!

Among the wedding errands I had to do, I ended up going with my brother to pick up his tux for the wedding. This is my brother in his zoot suit, with a borrowed fedora for a prop.

As you can tell I'm officially back from work vacation and from blogging vacation.
