Her name is Thumbelina

And she arrived today! Kippy, you had me in stitches!! "It's old and doesn't work great, but maybe Jurgis can do something with it."  We both packed up laughing! The package came untouched. They didn't even look! After all that blood, sweat and tears! And Jeremy, I can't wait to tuck into the books : )  Scenes from a Kayak was greedily devoured. I was so excited to finally see it! Absolutely fabulous!! Reviews to follow.



And... we got Jurgis' translations back. Next step is to start the application process *boom chaga chaga*

Now if you'll all excuse me, I have a teensy weensy toy to play with.....

The wedding of the year

The wedding of the year took on a distinctly international flair today with celebrations all over the globe. Well, almost all over the globe : )

Our wishes for you, our dear friends... This and soo much more!


Our day was quiet. I was, as anticipated, spending most of the day checking periodically for any news of the happy couple... both happy couples, really... the two in Nevada and the two in London.

While I was waiting, Dani came online. We chatted about this and that and I saw her lovely cake (how does she get it that big?). It was good. Sadly, webcams aren't the greatest for spectacular photos, but at least you can see it was a happy occasion...


Later, once supper was done, Jurgis and I toasted to the happy couple with words to the effect of "May they have many, many years of happiness together!"


And that is our sincere wish, Kippy and Jeremy... that happiness follows the two of you wherever you go : )

Then Katey came online... then Tat... both burnt to a crisp. It seems a good time was had by all. My little heart is happy... except for the fish 'n chips 'n Spur part. That part is jealous *drools* I hear tales of lizards and towers and palaces and soldiers (kinda) and bonds of friendships forged... while distant friendships were celebrated.

Kippy and Jeremy, we may not have been with you in person, but we all held you close in our hearts and thoughts today.
