Happy Valentine's Day

Taking a break from my therapy sessions, it's time to celebrate Valentine's Day. As was suggested by Elphaba and Marie, I'm going share a photo of Hubby and me, on our wedding day. Coincidentally, I've been working on my wedding album since we were married in May 2008, and I just finished retouching all the photos. I'm almost ready to upload the files to Blurb, and finally get it printed, which has been my goal before each of the two anniversaries we've had so far. Looks like this year I might make it if I can get through a few technical difficulties, and a whole lot of RGB to CMYK color conversions I'm just realizing are necessary. Oh well!

In any case you are getting the glowing and airbrushed versions of us. And because my photoshop skills are not that good, you are also getting a more recent picture taken on a trip to New Hampshire this past summer. We're both down a few pounds since the wedding, and yes, I nicked named myself Purple Principessa for a reason. I am vain. (I did just spend months photoshoping away my extra chins and under eye circles after all.)

Hope you are all having a wonderful Valentine's celebration. We're keeping it simple this year, heading to a favorite Mexican place for a Margarita. We're saving the big celebration for next month, the five year anniversary of our first date! I'm planning to tell you a bit more about my wonderful Hubby then.

Elphaba is keeping a list of all who are participating in the photo sharing. Check it out here.

    I just got caught up after missing your posts the past few days. Your mom sound so amazing for caring for you and your brother in such a selfeless way - I too wish she'd sued your father. My mom sued my father for years of back child support, but we were already estranged so that worked out I guess. Is there a statute of limitations on this? Now that you and your father are estranged I wonder if your mother can still sue him?

    Stunning photos! You were absolutely breathtaking. :)

    The wedding album is a daunting project, isn't it? I do digiscrapping and have been "meaning" to finish scrapping our wedding album for a long while now. We're coming up on our 5th wedding anniversary. Hmmm...maybe I can have it done for that.
