I don't know why, I don't know how, but I was one of "those girls". You know... the ones that knew everything there was to know about Wills and Kate, obsessed over their out of this world adorable engagement pictures, watched the Lifetime movie on premiere night, and made a countdown on my computer for April 29, 2011.
It's true.
The thing is, I just love weddings! I love the joy, I love the beautiful flowers, the gorgeous gowns...but most of all, I love love. I never get tired of seeing love in action. The way a groom looks at his bride as he sees her walking down the aisle. Her shaking hands being steadied by his tender touch. The way they act like the only ones in the room as they kiss each other.
Told you.
I love it. I can't wait to experience it myself, but for now, I love just seeing it.
Needless to say, the fact that the Royal Wedding aired at 3 am California time was not going to stop me. I invited some friends over to my dorm room, decorated as much as you can in a dorm, and soaked in every moment. We laughed, drank lots of Diet Coke, tried to get on CNN via Twitter, and watched, eyes peeled (at least mine were), as history was made.
{The crafting begins}
{We started out with CNN on the TV and the E! online feed}
{The essential window shrine ... that I still need to take down}
{Stand in Wills and Kate}
{The moment we stayed up an extra two hours for ... the double kiss}
{Just in time to get up 2 1/2 hours later for work}
Definitely a night/morning I will look back on and smile about.
William and Catherine ... can't wait to see you in LA in July ;)
