Who do you want at your wedding?

With our “big day” just 72 hours away, the level of excitement and anticipation is rapidly building.  Family, friends, colleagues, and acquaintances keep asking me how things are going, to which I reply… “Just a lot of “T” crossing and “I” dotting.”  One nagging question that seems to be on the back of a few […]

Still Frames of a Spring Cruise

We went back into the archives and pulled out a whole bunch of great photos from our Spring 2004 Caribbean cruise.  Browsing through these photos brings back some fantastic memories… but also reminds us of a sad reality.  Some of these characters (Donny, Sobe, etc.) will forever remain best friends of ours.  They are true friends, […]

A Day Late for Downtown Orlando

Angel and I are getting married next March.  We have been diligently saving money with the best intention of purchasing a home of our own.  The overlying goal is to relocate in or around the Downtown Orlando area.  We’re in our mid twenties with no children, so we think it would be nice to set […]

Irony of Choice

Regardless of whether or not you’re satisfied with your daily routine, you always have the choice to adjust it.  Sometimes it’s almost impossible to decipher the right choice from the wrong one.  Good could be cloaked behind bad, or bad behind good.  Once the decision has been made, the moment is gone.  That decision will […]

Oil and Water

Could it be considered as truth to assume that all intimate relationships are based around a foundation of friendship?  Could you assume that in order for such a relationship to uphold the trials of time, both sides must stand firm against the instinct of separation?   Thus, the establishment of a union between the important peers to […]
