NC Zoo

Distinguished.

We went to the NC Zoo in Asheboro this weekend. It's a really nice zoo, but it's huge. We walked for about 4 hours. We took a LOT of pictures, probably the most I've taken in one day before.

Jen got to try out her wedding present, a new Nikon D70. Actually, I bought a new D70s body and gave her my old one in addition to a new 28-105mm macro lense of her own. There's really not much difference in the two bodies, but the lens is perfect for her style of photography.

and here are Jen's (hers aren't in a set of their own). Jen's Flickr photos

Japanese Invitations

We've talked about including some subtle Japanese themes in the wedding plans. I was thinking that the invitations would be a good place for it, especially considering the history and importance of paper in the culture.

In my search online, I came across this site. It looks interesting and well put together.

We might be buying a house...

Yesterday we signed a contract on a house. It hasn't been approved yet by the builders, but we're keeping our fingers crossed.
