Jackie thanks for the detailed review of Juan. I also hired him and its nice to see that even though, yes he is expensive, he is worth every penny. Like you Adam and I have saved to have gorgeous wedding photos to look back on and now you have confirmed that everything is going to be worth it!! THANKS!!!

Amy you and I must be on the same page today...packing!! I did the same thing but not as good as yours!! WOW...thanks for this.

I am trying to start my packing and its completly overwhelming!! I printed a couple packing list off of here to help but I wanted to see for those of you who already have gotten married if there was 1. Something you wish you would have packed 2. Stuff to not waste my time packing. Thanks!!!

I don't think the pictures are all that clear. The options are awsome and I love the size! I still havn't figured out how to do the color swap though. I guess I need to break down and read the book..lol My friend that went to Jamaica with us took her Kodak. Her pictures are sooo much clearer. I have actually replaced some of her pics with some of mine. The problem might have been the camera though. The day after we got home from Jamaica the camera quit working. My SIL (the one who bought it) just happened to be at the house when it did and she took it back to Best Buy. I have not gotten any of the pics off the replaced camera developed yet so maybe there was a problem with it I just got my first set of pictures developed from it and they are perfectly clear..maybe like you said something is wrong it your camera. I know when I take pictures it even does the face recognition to make sure its clear. Read the manual too because there is a ton of stuff I had no idea was available on it too..plus its fun to play around with all the color swapping!!

I just bought the Powershot SD870 IS and its FABULOUS!! It has a ton of different feature..beach setting, night setting, indoor, color switching. etc. I paid $399 at Best buy for it and its so nice!!

I got it on ebay acutally...hopefully it arrives before I leave!! Here is the link to the website... eBay Store - charmeuse silk pillowcase pillow case: swarovski crystal bracelet, spa robe, loofah slipper

Ohh...how fun You are a natural born leader, even if those leadership talents haven't been developed yet. You have the power and self confidence to succeed in life, and your power grows daily. Besides power, you also have a great deal of creativity that enables you to innovate instead of fail. You are a visionary, seeing the big picture instead of all of the trivial little details. This is pretty accurate for me Your strength: Your supreme genius Not quite sure about this one !! Your weakness: Your inappropriate sensitivity What exactly does this mean? Your power color: Gold Never been much of a gold person. Your power symbol: Star Your power month: January

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

wow....I am so jealous of all of you. 1. Mexico 2. Cayman Islands 3. US 4. Canada
