April showers bring...

...Jamaican flowers! Hee he...time is really flying by, in a matter of weeks we will be seaside. I need a vacation so bad. And a husband. Ha!

Yesterday marked the end of a really huge project at work--the culmination of months of planning with our third and final family workshop. Three workshops over the course of three days, a beautiful experience but a monster event planning feat. Makes me glad I didn't try to plan a big ol' wedding at the same time.

It probably won't surprise you that Sean still doesn't have an outfit to wear for the wedding, and we can't go shopping today since he has an extension on a paper that was due for class last week. Oh, isn't it comforting to know that he's still the same Sean after all these years? But the earrings Kate and I picked out arrived this week and they are beautiful, like a Balinese princess. And Cindy and I found the perfect material for the veil. And mom is helping us find the perfect new camera to invest in so we can capture the wedding in all its lovely simplicity to share with you all when we get back. And dad...well he's dad...he makes me feel like I'm the most special girl to ever get married. And the best news of late is that Sean's mom Yukiko is going to fly into minnesota for our send-off party at el meson the night before we leave. We really are so lucky to have the families we do--even though the wedding will be an "intimate" affair, we look forward to sharing a rainfall of new memories with our families as we move into that chapter of life where we start adding our own contributions to the Sand/Suzuki/ Jahnke/Sadowski/Madsen brood.
