This year for Christmas, Santa gave me....

.... a husband! A real live one!! He smells nice & is cuddly & lets me monopolize the Wii and watches Golden Girls with me despite despising the show (and even bought me the DVD gift set of all the seasons!!), and put up with the Bridezilla I turned into an... the list goes on. It's a very nice Christmas present, I must say... I rather like it. And marriage is something I'd definately recommend to everyone. HEre's the only semi-decent pic of us taken by our friends & fam - the professional shots come back in a couple of months... & no, I won't LJ-cut it ;)




The wedding was small, immensley stressful & not something I plan on repeating - not even in India... We're only going to have a reception there. The wedding & the surrounding days were full of small miracles... Mom & Dad's flight from Chicago to here on the 23rd was cancelled due to weather & we were told they couldn't come to FL until the 25th night, but by the Grace of God we were able to fine inexpensive tix to get them to us on the 24th morn & I had my parents for Christmas. The dress that was made to my measurements, but that I hadn't tried on until 3 days before the wedding fir perfectly. Publix cancelled our cake the day before our wedding, but we were able to fix it (though we missed our rehearsal dinner to do so) & they threw in an extra tier for free to make up for it. This is what it looked like. I got the Indian cake toppers online.



I was given some lovely gifts & I had family & friends there that I didn't dare hope to have...  And best of all, I have Jer. It's been a good Christmas...
