I think I liked 2 a lot better..

There were parts that I was just really confused. Why were they doing some of the crap they were doing? To me the story would be hard for a 10/12 year old to follow.. or maybe I was just distracted by the hotness that is Johnny Depp.

I also thought the scenes where Jack was :you know: were weird-- why all the extras!? I wasn't sure what they were trying to say. It was YES.. but ?


However.. I think Orlando was at his hottest in that last scene after the credits. Oh MY!

Ahh! I was careful not to say anything that would spoil. Even the things I hinted at (oh-so-cleverly) weren't plot points or anything.

I didn't want to spoil it for you guys!

I know, but its the non illuding information that's tempting me

Whoops.

Did we ever figure out the 'block' thing?

And SERIOUSLY! The Search on these boards stinks.

Were you planning to simply use the Ignore List feature to thwart Princes' advances? It should block the PMs and I think you will not see any of his posts either...

And SERIOUSLY! The Search on these boards stinks.

Tell me about it! There is a specific thread just to complain about DIS board search...

We had a lovely time at Tom's wedding on Saturday, May 19. Sarah wanted to get married on a beach. Her sister owns a beach house on the ocean on a skinny island south of Long Island New York . She said Sarah and Tom could use her beach property for their guests so the list was limited by the number of beds since there is no hotel or motel on the island. There are few cars. Most people walk or ride bikes. There are sidewalks and sand.

They made signs for the doors with a picture of a sand dollar and our names so we knew where to sleep.



We flew to NY City on Friday morning, got a little train from the airport to the train station and took the Long Island Railroad train to the town where the ferry was. We walked a bit less than a mile in COLD DRIZZLE to the ferry terminal, bought our tickets, got some lunch across the street and then took the ferry to the island. Tom-J met us at the ferry dock.

Sarah's sister wrote directional signs in chalk on the sidewalks.

The rehearsal and dinner was that night—hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill. Saturday morning a friend of Sarah's did our makeup, we got dressed, and found the bouquets Sarah had made of the roses she had brought. Sarah carried a packed bunch of maybe two dozen roses, her sister (Maid of Honor) and friend Robin (bridesmaid) carried about a dozen while her Mom and I carried a bouquet of 6 all the same color of rosy pink. The guys had one rose each with rosy red for everyone except white for Tom from some white roses we had taken. When I pinned that on him he was concerned as Sarah had told him it would be pink, but I told him she changed her mind when she saw my white roses. I had asked if she wanted to make her bouquet of white too as I had brought two dozen from the SAM's Club here but she said she wanted pink.

Sarah's gown is strapless, smooth fabric with a smooth overskirt that did not quite meet on the left front so the lacy underskirt was exposed. Lace also hung below the hem of the overskirt. It had a train that was about two feet long. Veil had sparkly beads around the edges. Very elegant.

Saturday was a bit warmer than Friday. Some of the guys carried a tent to the beach

Later we all walked down there. Everyone wore sandals—even Tom-J with his tuxedo!—but Sarah was barefoot. She and her parents walked down after the rest of us.

The drizzle of the morning stopped for the service and later resumed at times.

The service was very nicely done. They had chosen good Bible verses and had a part for each person to read either alone or in little groups. At the end, Tom and Sarah's Dad stood by Tom-J and Sarah with a hand on the shoulders of each and each of them said a blessing. Then the pastor introduced them as Mr and Mrs for the first time and we headed back to the beach house for food and conversation.

Sarah's Mom had made the cake on Friday.

She frosted the bottom chocolate layer with deep blue, the middle vanilla layer with light blue and the top layer which will be saved for their first anniversary was frosted with white. For a little while Friday evening Tom-J and Sarah had disappeared to finish decorating the cake. They had some marzipan sea weed and fish to put around the bottom layer, some granulated brown sugar to put on the top of that layer to be sand on which they laid some small chocolate candy shells that the flower girl and her Mother had made on Friday and some marzipan seagulls were placed in the middle layer. So, the cake represented ocean, sky and clouds. It tasted good too.

After cutting the cake Sarah fed Tom a piece and then licked her fingers.

Then Tom fed Sarah a piece. Neither of them smashed cake on the other.

They tried to sneak out to their honeymoon cabin but we saw them go.

Sunday morning Tom and I walked them to the ferry.

They took this ferry to Long Island (seen in the distance on the horizon), drove to Newark Airport in New Jersey and flew to a resort on the Gulf of Mexico near Cancun for week.

Love, Jan

THANKS TAE JA.

(I am technologically handicapped and have never figured out how to post pictures. Thanks to Tae Ja, who posted my whole wedding report, you can see some candid's from the wedding. There was an unofficial-official photographer so there may be more and better photos eventually, but for now, we have it documented.)

Yes, great pics Jan!

Would you believe we STILL have not seen Pirates? I ended up working this weekend so I think we'll have to wait until NEXT weekend. But it will happen soon!

 

[LCTsMom]

Can't wait to hear what you think of it, Erica!! Let us know when you've seen it.

Logan's going again, for the third time. I want to go to! WAAAAAAAAHHHHHH

 

[JLSE50]

We saw SHREK the THIRD today. May go to PIRATES tomorrow, not sure. The idea of a day with no schedule appeals to both of us.

What did you think of Shrek?

What did you think of Shrek?

We thought it was cute. Some funny "take home" lines. Cute story. Clever tie-ins to other myths and fairy tales. Cute ending.
