Just Call Me Mrs. and Playing Catch-Up

After taking some time off from the blogging world, I am ready to make a come back! So what have I been up to since we last talked?

Let's see I believe I alluded to a big announcement? Yes, yes...

On May 20th my honey and I got engaged...

And on June 2nd we became husband and wife!!!

So many people were surprised to hear we were getting married so soon after getting engaged, but in reality we had been planning on the wedding date since the beginning of May! I know that isn't necessarily a long time, but it was perfect for what we had planned.

Tuesday, June 2nd marked the 6th anniversary of our very first date, which also happened to be on a Tuesday, so we thought it was perfectly romantic to get married on that day. We planned our ceremony for City Hall. We grabbed our witnesses and had the perfect day ever!

We were surprised with a gift of a professional photographer and let me tell you, all I could think about was how the rainy, humid weather had destroyed my hair. Our photographer must have some mad magical photography skills because amazingly I love almost every single picture he took.

I am so excited to print them and get them into a wedding album!

The past two months have really been about enjoying being married, becoming Godparents and just focusing on things that make me happy. I've been scrapbooking like a crazy fool, managed to complete a knit and even took a mini trip to visit my family.

I've also been contemplating changing the name of my blog, as I am not Deborah K anymore, and starting a new blog solely dedicated to my scrapbooking and leaving this blog as my lifestyle/knitting blog.

I know blogs should be focused on one thing and I started this blog many years ago as a knitting/craft blog. Then over time it evolved more into my "Let's Get Healthy" blog as I put so much focus into losing weight and living a healthier lifestyle. Now it's become more of a mish mosh of what is happening in my life at that particular moment in time.

I don't think I can juggle three blogs in total 1) scrapbooking, 2) knitting and 3) healthy living while working a full-time job. So my thoughts are to start a new scrapbooking blog and use this blog to focus on my knitting while interjecting posts on my life from time to time.

I truly have missed blogging on regular basis and the reasons as to why I haven't been doing that regularly, I am hoping to fix in the near future, so blogging will be a much easier process for me.

I have lots of ideas running around my head at the moment. Just need to get my plan of action in place. In the meantime, I leave you with a few of my favorite professional wedding photographs:

I am so happy we went up the Brooklyn Bridge, despite the rain. It made the best pictures and I will never forget walking up the bridge in my 4 inch high heels!

To Have and To Hold

On Friday, DB and I attended the wedding of my dear friend AJ. I still remember the day AJ called me over to his desk at work to show me a picture of the ring he was going to buy for Marissa. I was so excited and touched he shared that moment with me. I was only 1 of 2 people who got to see it before he proposed.

Eleven months later the big day was here. The day went from one where rain was predicted to being one of total beauty! The sun shined down on them in celebration.

A beautiful couple!

This kiss went on and on and on.....

The wedding party.

The ultra-happy bestman. His smile was one you couldn't miss.

Here they come. Love AJ's face!

First dance!

I got caught enjoying the dessert a little too much.

I love this picture.

This was about an hour before we left the reception, and after a few glasses of wine, we tried unsuccessfully to get a picture we both liked. DB was a good sport though. He let me try for at least 5 or 6 photos before he looked at me and said "We'll try again later!". Little did I realize at the time that "later" was a ploy to get me to forget to take a picture. LOL I adore him!
