Not yet

Still getting ready for the big day. Stopped working a few days back.
A pleasant surprise for Rebekka, her two cousins(Freyja and Sunneva) who live in New Zealand are in Iceland, visiting. So she invited them and Sunneva's long-time boyfriend(who is Japanese) to our wedding. They are living at theire grandfathers house. He's over 70 so we volunteered to drive them around the "golden circle", that is Gullfoss, Geysir and Þingvellir. It was great fun. Most memorably was probably when the muffler came off the car we were driving.

Le Suisse update :
I think we have an appartment ready now. Havent seen it, nor any pictures from it. but its supposed to be around 65 sq/m with 2.5 rooms(they say biig living room and a sleepingroom). Well, if we dont like it, we only need to stay there a year before we can change ( ... )

We also did some hiking(check picasa albums for pics.)
We went truck-driving up some mountains, need to get those pictures still. that was great fun :P

Thats it kids!

Come on already!!!!

i want to go NOW!!!
ok, i want to get married. but other then that, i just want to be in le suisse NOW

Not that im tired of Iceland or anything, but its just hell to be stuck in Limbo, like standing on a cliff with a bungee cord stuck to your feet, you've already decided to jump, your ready, not scared, but you CANT, not just yet atleast. Limbo-hell imho.


On the marriage. ive bought clothes. Becka has her clothes also set and ready(except shoes)
Getting food ideas(were just gonna have finger-foods). So everything is Set, again with the waiting!

Oh well. ill post pictures on my picasaweb as soon as i have something worth putting up there :)

Cya all

Never before!

Never before has summer in Iceland been so good for so many days in a row, its crazy.

Well, date is set, Clothes are bought(atleast most of them), Rings are ordered etc.

We decided so far :
No Alcohol, we dont like Champagne, so why should we have it in the party
We will also get married at the judge, so we decided that everyone goes to the party-place BEFORE us. and then we come rolling in the "Just Married" car, as we exit the car rice-throwing, clapping, dancing and singing etc etc. Then just a standing mingle-thingy with finger-foods(no sitting-and-eating).

So all in all, the whole thing should be a realy laid-back kinda thing, not too long.

Any more suggestions?

Sommertime!

Hi all, im just chilling these days, waiting to get to work, while also working out all paper-formalia thats needed when moving between countries and getting married.

On that - Marriage, there are SOOO many ways of doing it. should we have tables? should we do a ceremony at the party(since were getting married at a judge/government official, there is no real "ceremony". should we have music, wine, alcohol, 3 course dinner, or just smorgosboard of cold/semi-cold slices. should Becka have a white weddingdress or not, should i....

you get the point. im kinda lost atm, trying to figure those things out
(oh and btw, my sister is getting married too, on 070707, and she is having a GRAND wedding in every sense of the word(huuuuuge guest list, famour perfomer singing songs, etc etc.)

Oh well, back to planning my own wedding

Cya all :)
