Today I followed the crowed of millions and watched the royal wedding… starting at 3AM!!! I think I’m crazy. But why not celebrate a wedding?
The morning started off with a startle since 3 am is pretty deep sleep time. My dog was not amused either. She kept giving me the look. Then a trek to the living room where my brother set up our little tv. Yes, we have to set up the tv whenever we want to watch anything live. Our larger tv is only hooked up to dvd player, so if we want to see a sporting event or anything on the networks we have to drag out our little 15 inch screen and try to get the channel to come in! Isn’t it interesting what different people find important? We love our computers and cameras in this house, but music and television. eh.
Then out came the apricot scones we made last night … and English Breakfast Tea of course!! Can’t have an English party without tea.
It was actually really fun to watch the pom and splendor. And I loved learning a little bit more about weddings in England. Bridesmaids are all children under the age of 10! And they walk behind the bride. Who knew.
I loved Kate’s dress and understated flowers. Very eligent. She reminded me a lot of Maria in Sound of Music. Simple yet gorgeous walking slowly down the isle. Westminster Abby was splendid and magical with the trees inside! It softened the whole place into a beautiful garden! Whoever filmed the ceremony got lots of props from me for the amazing videography, the shots were so pleasing on the eyes. Wow.
I think you get the idea … I enjoyed the whole event!

What a joyous day. It may seem silly to make so much out of a couple, but I think the world just wants to have a day off from bad news!
I know I enjoyed it. How about you?

The only light is from the morning sun. No fancy flashes or reflectors. I enhanced the contrast a bit in photoshop just to make the steam stand out from the background a little bit more.
For Easter Sunday we had quite the house full with my brother and his wife, aunt, uncle, cousins. One of my favorite things to eat on Easter is this:
My breakfasts have been especially delicious lately. Dad brought home some REAL Dutch cheese when he came back from Kenya (he spent 3 days with family in Holland). There is no better way to start the day!
10:32Check Facebook – I do a LOT of networking here. There are several photography groups where we help each other with problems, crazy client situations, or give heads up on some online workshops to check out. So this is not just play time folks. Serious work goes on in Facebook!
12:00 I watch a few minutes of an online live show put on by my web hosting company and software – SHOWIT. Don’t have a lot of time to watch though … gota get myself put together for a networking meeting.
12:20 swing by the bank. Too bad Elssaisn’t with me. They always give doggie treats so she LOVES the drive through. It’s like the Dairy Queen for dogs. ; )
12:30 drive 20 miles out of town to go to the Venue that I’m networking with. The fields are finally free of most of the snow!!
12:52 A Friends House venue on HWY 75 north of Moorhead. (I took this photo at a wedding last fall)
After talking with Bobbi for an hour about our businesses and giving her some images to use on her website I drove back to town and stopped by the library to drop of some due items and look at the business book section. I’m reading The Purple Cow right now and am almost done with it, so I need another great read on business and marketing. ; )
Run a few more errands and get home at 3:20ish. My phone rings as I walk in the door. A client would like to pick up their disk of images. So I need to burn and package them!
4:20 time to check the email and Facebook again.
6:10 I’m learning Adobe Illustrator so whenever I can I’m going through a tutorial program on youtube. I love youtube!
And finally at 7:17 my sister is back from her ballet lessons and we can EAT! Quiche and jasmine rice. MMMMM.
