We got our professional wedding photos back today!! I’ve uploaded the best ones to Flickr, and here’s a selection of our favourites.
We’re really pleased with how they came out! The photographer is fantastic.
So. kungfupolarbear and I got married on Tuesday! It was a small ceremony, with just my parents, grandma, sister, and her boyfriend. And it was windy! And cold. But still, squee! It’s very odd having a ring on my finger having not ever worn jewellery before.
My dad took a few photos with my camera, and we should have the professional ones back today!
I actually have a wife. And I’m a husband. Woah. I’m wondering when it’s actually going to sink in properly. 🙂
I finally got around to finishing the second Imperial Guard tank I have.
Also…
Holy fuck we’re getting married in about thirteen hours!
!!!!
I’ve finally gotten around to taking some photos using my new light stand and umbrella setup!
I’m really pleased with how they came out!
What with Twitter and Tumblr, I haven’t been updating this much!
– kungfupolarbear and I are getting married in FIVE DAYS! Holy shit. And the weather forecast so far says it’s meant to be fine.
– I actually own a suit now! I’ve only ever worn one once before, that was for my Year 12 Formal and it was a rental. $600 suit reduced to $200, woo! We just need to find a shirt now. We picked up kungfupolarbear‘s corset and skirt last weekend from Gallery Serpentine (the corset is this style but in cream, with black lace) and by god does she look stunning.
– My parents have hired a professional photographer for the wedding, we’re going to a restaurant called Limáni afterwards, then going back to their place for ice cream wedding cake, mmmm! My parents are the bestest.
– Guitar Hero: Metallica is fucking excellent. I’m actually starting to get half-decent on the drums, which will work nicely because all of my friends suck arse at them. 😀 kungfupolarbear has been rocking out on the bass on medium as well.
– Work is being obnoxiously busy today, and I have a horrible feeling I’ve got a cold coming on. 🙁 And I’m working Saturdays this month, boo.
But over all, squee!
Woo! We scored a dining table and four chairs from eBay for $80. 😀 We picked up our coffee table yesterday, now we’re just waiting for the TV stand and side table to arrive, and we still need to find a book case. Once that’s done, the unit is fully furnished!
We went down to Dee Why Beach this morning and we snapped a few photos. kungfupolarbear has a few more that will be uploaded later, these are my ones.
Oh. I probably should mention that we’ve picked the ninth of June for our wedding day! 😀 I have no idea how that slipped my mind. 😛
We’re doing a quick informal thing just to get the legalities out of the way so we can apply for the next visa, and we’re going to be having an actual proper wedding at some point later down the track, once we’ve got time to plan and organise it, and when kungfupolarbear‘s mum and brother can come out.
Squee!
A somewhat delayed entry!
So obviously we’re back in the country now! And I’m back at work. Grumble.
The flight back was fucking horrible. There was this baby, wouldn’t have been even a year old, that was randomly shrieking at the top of its lungs. Not crying, full-on banshee wailing. There was quite a bit of turbulence too, just to add to the fun. Thankfully I’m not motion-sick.
We arrived back in Sydney on Saturday morning, breezed through customs, and ended up getting a lot done in the morning before we passed out! We opened a joint bank account, deposited kungfupolarbear‘s cheque that she brought over plus the one we got as an engagement present from her grandparents, got her a pre-paid SIM with 3, and did a bit of shopping.
Unfortunately whatever it was that kungfupolarbear was sick with in Florida came over with us. Thankfully we were able to pay $60 to go to the doctor, it took all of probably ten minutes, and we came out with a prescription for antibiotics, which themselves cost about $15.
Yesterday we went to Ikea, which was pretty much made of fail. We had Lily, who’s got a cold at the moment and I’m fairly sure she’s teething, so she was extremely grumpy towards the end. We found a few things, but none of them came in the colours we wanted, and kungfupolarbear was coughing and wheezing too.
I’m back at work now too, boo. It’s like I never left. Although I’ve only got today and tomorrow and then it’s the weekend again! kungfupolarbear is off to see the new Wolverine movie with a couple of my friends. She gets along extremely well with all of them, which is excellent.
I’ve uploaded the photos I took to Flickr. I’ve added a handful below.
A very quick update from Denver, Colorado! Our plane to San Francisco boards in about five minutes, and it’s very nice having the flight there broken up like this.
Our flight to Sydney departs at 10:45pm San Francisco time and gets into Sydney at 7am on Saturday. Mmmm, jetlag!
Huzzah, we have arrived safe and sound at kungfupolarbear‘s mum’s place in Florida!
Holy shit driving down through Georgia and Florida is booooooring. Damn. But it’s currently gorgeous outside, we’re sitting around in t-shirt and shorts, and there’s delicious cooking smells coming from the kitchen.
