Our Wedding Day ...

Wedding Rings

Photo-A-Day #218 11/12/05

Our Wedding Day! I took today’s Photo-A-Day this morning at 6:35am. That is the last picture I am allowed to take today. The photographer will now become the subject. Well, it is here, the big day. Many thoughts and emotions are running through my mind. I know a couple of things; I am making the best decision of my life to marry Allison, I am surrounded by friends and family that love us, and I had better take a moment to really see the day.

In the foreground are some antique cufflinks that belonged to my Great Uncle Richard Belanger. I am wearing them today and my Dad is going to wear a matching pair. I am glad that my mother gave them to me because I can feel that a part of Great Uncle Richard is with us today. Great Uncle Richard loved parties and loved to take pictures rather than be the subject himself. Kinda like someone else I know…

And since today is the wedding day I can now reveal the wedding rings. These were a gift from my Uncle Rich. He has been so generous to us and has helped me pick some very beautiful jewelry for Allison over the years.

So wish us luck as we take the next step in our lives.

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo.
