jajajaja

Oops- meant to say cute dress Celina. I love Newport News!

Davids bridal were assholes to us too. And then they sold all my info so I got calls not only from them all the time, but from other random bridal companies. JERKS! I can't say I would ever recommend them- not that I bought a dress from them or anything. LOL

I think Rosemary filled that family void for David. He was completely shut out from Norah and consequently his relationship with Paul was adversly affected. He didn't really have a loving relationship with either and both were so judgemental of him. Rosemary seemed to understand David (and she even knew the dark secret).

I wonder if they always meet the people at the marina then? Kelly didn't meet us until we were walking onto the boat so we kinda had to find our way around the marina. I know they didn't meet our guests either. I wonder if it has to do with party size. We only had 20 people.

Jessica- we just had weather in the 80-90s for the past 3 days. Now it's pouring out. GO figure.

15.....15.....15.....15 I fell for it too!

I orginally liked your dress, but I agree that it does look better in white. It's much more understated. Very pretty.

Wow. I guess I wasn't expecting that. I know they are preggo and all, but a wedding too! Crazy

Ok it nearly hit a 100 here a few days ago and I thought I would pass out. We aren't used to that heat here in Oregon. Although, it seems as if its getting warmer and warmer every summer. Some new houses aren't even built with a/c. Thank goodness we have it!

White Gold ArtCarved WOODBRIDGE Hammered 6mm Milgrain Wedding Ring - Jewelry & Watches - BizRate - Compare prices & buy - Discount - Price You can get a VERY similar ring here for $645 in white gold. I couldn't justify spending thousands more for platinum. I meant to add: we got my hubby's ring here: black wedding rings The site was confusing to order from, but we got it super quick and he LOVES it. It took forever to pick out his ring. He was so so picky. He wanted something unique so just in case your man wanted an unique ring, this was some of the most unique we found.

Oh you def need to! It's super sad and WAY not the typical house episode. Definitely see a development in his character.

I think this is one aspect where the movie differed from the book. Paul eventually understood his father and seemed to have a little more compassion in the movie. Norah acts a bit self righteous if you ask me. Sure her husband messed up- BIG TIME. However, she didn't know that til after the fact. She cheated on him all the time and she really didn't have justification for it until after his death. (Not that I think cheating is ever okay). At some point, I think Norah really needed to be slapped silly. She lost a child which is probably never easy to deal with. But hello- she had another baby that needed to be cared for. You would think that she would mourn the loss of her baby and then get it together for her other one.

Yes I totally noticed that. I thought it looked good with her dress. Blah- give it to me then! LOL I like her, but I really liked Jenny too. I'm so glad she was on the episode and I thought it was really funny (and odd) that they are good friends now. Good for her though- I'm glad she found a good man. I agree that Deanna did come across as a little cocky. However, in the clips that they showed I think she just isn't messing around. I think she REALLY wants to find her husband and she is going in super serious from the start. I think most bachelor/ettes go in with an open mind, but not completely 100% vested thinking this will be the way they find the ONE. I think she's a little different in this aspect. I nearly teared up at the scene where she is yelling at them to get it together because she is there for love and if they can't handle the process then just go home. It was a sad little speech but I was a little over-emotional last night since I also watched Bones and House and cried my eyes out at both!

I think David never confronted Nora about her affair because he felt so guilty about his own wrong doing. I agree that there was a lack of closure with his sudden death. I can somewhat understand why he lied- he did it for his love for Nora and he didn't want her to face the same sadness his family did with his sick sister. At the time, I don't think he ever realized it would be worse to have her believe she lost the baby. It's hard to remember that this was in the '50s and they probably didn't know how capable children of down syndrome are. As David said, he believed the child would live a short, painful life. He later realized how wrong he was, but I believe he was in too big of a hole at that point. The book doesn't offer much sympathy for David. Obviously, I can kind of empathize with him although I clearly think he was wrong. At the same time, it's hard to not feel for the guy when he did what he did for love. He loved his wife and didn't want to see her hurt.

Tru dat! Steve hooked up the barbie yesterday. But go figure, our weather turns to shit and it's pouring out! *Sigh* Sounds like the Pacific NW to me!

I can never get snapfish pics to load on the forum. I could be doing something wrong but it never works for me. I use shutterfly instead for that reason.

On a different note, the oyster farmers necklace was pretty and I want one. haha

I wouldn't feel bad Monica. It sounds like their business is definitely hit and miss. After all, it's only a $1 for most of the products so we can't whine too much. I cancelled mine though. I don't have OOT bags to fill up. haha

My biggest thing- I hate asking him to do something. He won't clean it on his own, so if I ask for help he gets annoyed like I'm mom-ing him. Please. And then when he does do it, I feel like I need to say thank you. Why?! It's not like it's all my dishes he just put away. He freakin eats on them too! But no, he gets all huffy if I'm not appreciative. LOL I shouldn't complain though. He doesn't create huge messes. He's just not helpful at doing the deep cleaning stuff.

uh ya. It looks like she keeps him around for awhile. I'm sorry, but I thought he was incredibly weird. Almost like he came in already obsessed about her.

haha my dogs always do this. THey eat too fast and then try to play to hard to fast. Careful with puppies too- mine would always go into to deep of a sleep and pee on me. It's happened twice!

I love the lace. It's sexy and very classy.

Girls- I cancelled my order and they did so, no questions asked. I don't think it's too horrible. Their site looks legit so I doubt it's fraudulent. I could see it more being the link in the emails as fraudulent rather than the site. I may reorder a few items, but I just ordered a few too many! LOL Lesson learned.
