Cam & Howard's Vow Renewal PJ -1/12/09 - WP&WH--p.98: TRIP REPORT BEGINS

[Honeibee]

OMG Cam! they are GORGEOUS! Love love love the quote on the cover!

Yay! Vegetarian Cheddar Cheese soup! Thank you sooo much!

Ohhh what a sweet gift from your ILs!

 

[MegKate]

Cam, everything looks beautiful! What a wonderful gift from your IL's. Wicked thoughtful!

I know your day will be everything you wanted and more and I can't wait to see pictures when you get back!

An Irish Wedding (err.. Vow Renewal!) Blessing for you and Howard:

May joy and peace surround you both, contentment latch your door, and happiness be with you now, and God bless you evermore.

 

[jeanneg]

Wow, Cam, I can't believe your VR is here already. Everything looks so wonderful. I know you will be having a very busy weekend and I am not sure I will get the opportunity to talk to you personally, but I wanted to take this moment to WISH you and Howard a most magical special day. This year I am running (OK, walking) the full and working the half, so keep your eyes out for me at water stops #1 and 11. Hope to see you on the course!

 

[keenercam]

Judy -- I am glad you like them.

Meg -- Thank you for the blessing. That is beautiful!

Jeanne -- I am volunteering at Red waterstop #2. If you are on that start of the marathon, I will look for you! Have an awesome race, in case I don't see you to WISH that for you in person. Go ROCK that course, my dear WISH friend! And I will definitely be looking for your smiling face during the half at waterstop 1/11. Don't be offended if I don't take any water, though -- Dasani makes me very ill. But I'll be looking for you!

We were able to pull together a lot of the packing last night, which is good.
But we both "lost" a couple of hours because of a car accident. I was stopped at a red light and the guy in front of me decided he was too far forward and put his car in reverse and hit the gas. Said he never saw me. I cannot believe how much damage there is to my car, probably not driveable at this point and I have no time to deal with it. I'm fine, though, and that is really all that matters. Since it was in the city at about 8:20pm, my immediate thought was that it was a "crime" attempt, since I've heard of fake accidents caused in order to rob the driver of the hit vehicle. It was so surreal to see that SUV coming at me so fast in reverse. It came up onto the hood of my car a bit just because it was so much higher than mine, but we still thought the car was okay until I drove it about 7 miles home and it was smoking and smelled bad -- so, in fact, maybe my radiator is damaged. I just have to figure out when and where I can get it in to be repaired, possibly while we are away, though I just can't imagine adding that to my to-do list.

Oh Cam - so sorry to hear about your car accident. That is such a shame about your car but glad to hear you are feeling ok. Please take care of yourself.

Omigosh!!!!!!! I am so glad you are okay! Did you get a police report, I hope - what a numbskull (thats my nice assessment of the SUV driver, lol). Sorry about the unwelcome addition to your list too!!!

 

[accountingbabe08]

I'm glad your ok. Maybe they can repair while your in WDW for your vow renewal.

 

[keenercam]

Thanks, everyone. Turns out his insurance company made a mistake last night confirming coverage and his insurance had lapsed in December. Lovely. Makes it easier for me now that I am only dealing with my insurance company's uninsured motorist coverage and I don't have to deal with another insurer. My car will go in the shop today or tomorrow and hopefully be repaired or well on the way by the time I get back from WDW.

I really appreciate everyone's concern. I am just so relieved that I wasn't hurt and that I saw him backing up, so that I didn't hit my face on the steering wheel. Wouldn't Ana and Lili really have their work cut out for them then?

I think Numbskull is a kind term I could think of a few others, but well I would have the asterisks up here! What an idiot. (The other driver!!)

I'm very glad to hear you're ok. And I agree with the bubble wrap suggestion! I've got some right here by my desk that I'm willing to contribute!!

Thank you, Kathy! I can't wait to share all this wonderful experience with so many people who mean the world to us!

Meg -- Thank you for offering up your bubble wrap. I am more sore from my personal training session yesterday and my workout Monday than from the accident. LOL!

The menu cards and programs are really cute!!! love the pink paper

Thank you, Carolina! I still can't believe I was able to get so much of that gorgeous paper for all of my projects! It is called rosebud shimmer or rosebud metallic and it is made in Italy. I found it at Michael's and at JoAnn Fabrics.

Hi, Cam!
I just wanted to let you know that I just finished reading the entire PJ. I am so super excited for you. If anyone deserves a fairytale, it's you. I can't tell you how many times I was in tears while reading the sweet things that you and Howard had to say about each other.
I can't wait to see pictures! I know it's going to be so magical!!! It seems like everything that you've planned for your VR is a lot like what I have envisioned for my DH and I!
Congrats again, and thanks for taking the time to share your Fairytale with us!

 

[keenercam]

Thank you so much, Missy! I hope you and DH will have a DFTW VR someday that fulfills all of your dreams!

 

[Goldeelox9]

cam - I am so excited for you. I have told you before, but I will say it again. Your relationship with Howard is truly an inspiration! I hope and Pray Pete and I are as happy you the two of you in 25 years! XOXOX!

 

[29apr00]
