3 years today, I'll be getting married

Big thing eh? It kind of scares me in a good way. I mean, we have pleanty of time to plan and save, but still. 3 years isn't long. But then, I'll be 28 then, I'll be old. I feel old already. Although I seem to be bypassing the glamorous part of being in your late 20s. I need to find a look. I've had the same look for years and I feel it's high time I have a new look. A new style. I have no idea what, but that is what's mainly on my mind today.

To elope or not to elope...

... that is indeed the question. I'm excited about having a big day. Yet one more objection about our choice of date and I'm seriously considering buggering off to Vegas and getting married there with no one to tell us that the chosen date isn't practical because so and so will be away/somebody's birthday is in the same month/the hamster has to go to have a haircut etc etc. Why did no one warn me about this stressful side of the wedding? It's our bloody day and I don't really mind if it's autumn and there won't be any leaves coming out on the trees, we want to get married then, and that's when we're getting married.

Please, someone tell me it gets better? Please?

Raspberry Pavlova ice cream? Don't mind if I do!

Edd's parents are back from Sweden. This means Emilia is back, yay! This also means that the clashing of opinions has started and in the past 4 days there have been plenty of raised voices, boo. It's just getting used to all 5 of us living under the same roof again, but still, the stress levels are high at the moment. Hence the ice cream.

In other news, we have pretty much booked the wedding reception venue! Yay! It's all suddenly getting really real now. Oddly enough, all I can think about is having a little baby boy to be a page boy in a cute little suit.... got to stop being broody!

Emilia has now decided that when she is an adult, she's going to be a doctor. I was her first patient...
