Self Portrait Tuesday - Take II
This one's not as gross as the sore throat. I took this last week, but decided to post the madonna painting instead.
This is a reflection in my wedding photo. My beautiful niece C and her sweet brother M, fatherless now. I was thrilled that they came to my wedding. At this time in my life, at this age, I decided I no longer wanted the pomp and circumstance of a big to-do, and decided to run off to Vegas for a quick and quiet ceremony (which is the absolute last thing I'd ever have wanted to do, at any other time in my life). Only a handful of people attended, but those who did were my closest friends and family, and it couldn't have been a better celebration.

Wonderful!
I'm with you on the quiet ceremony thing. My husband and I tied the knot a year and a half ago among very close friends and family. A decade ago, I'd have wanted a huge party...
I got married in Vegas too! We ran away and had just the two of us on Christmas Eve last year. I am so glad we did it 'our' way - it was so personal
