From Ms to Mrs

Came back from Lisbon to a not so nice surprise: the fridge was broken. Imagine milk, ham, cheese (a few French ones that were already smelly), fruit and vegetables lying in about + 20 celcius for 3 days...
So I spent the weekend listening to my husbands bitching about having a cold and looking for a new fridge and freezer. We finally found one that we both like. I wanted one from Gorenje with 26.000 Swarowski Crystals on it but Mr S, being the resonable person he is decided to gofor a classic steel from Siemens.

Last week we were in Lisbon. Or I was in Lisbon and Mr S was working.We stayed at
The Westin quite far from Lisbon so I took the bus in to town every day. It was really nice and warm, apparently warmer than usual which was nice. I did some shopping and had some really nice food. Mr S was mostly working but we got to spend one night together having dinner.

The actual wedding was really nice.
Friday night I did the last girl stuff (facial, nails and hair). Saturday we had brunch with N (a friend who was staying at our place) and the kids A&M. I left to have my make up done at MAC and afterwards we met up at the hotel to change.
Off to the wedding place where A&M, sis and toast madame C already where waiting for us.
The photographer arrived had we spent about half an hour with him taking pictures. They should be ready in about 2 weeks.
All the guests arrived and had their cosmopolitans and a small snack to eat.
For the ceremony we had chosen (or I chose) Vangelis - Conquest of Paradise so that song played as all the guests entered the museum for the ceremony.
We had chosen the "longer" civil ceremony and that takes about 7 mins :)
A few words, the "I do" and we are husband and wife!

Afterwards we had a group picture taken, we will use that for all the "Thank you"-card we will send out.
Then the dinner started - the food was great and people really enjoyed themselves. The were a few speeches, all my friends who I travel with made a really funny thing about "The Fist of Glory" - it's a long story but it was invented in Budapest ;)

Mr S and me stayed until 1 in the morning and then we went back to the hotel and I fell asleep ;)
My husband wasn't impressed....

The rest of the story will come as the pictures come :)

Take care
Love/E

Song of the day: Home - Depeche Mode
