Doing A Happy Dance!

...cuz we got us some escort tiles!

Behold the result of a 45 minute drive to Chino pick up parents, another 45 minute drive back to LA because two people forgot their passports (weah!), a 3.5 hour drive to the border (damn you 5 South traffic), a half hour drive down the scenic coast to Rosarito, cruising down the main avenue in Rosarito searching for artisan shops, comparing prices and allowing a stubborn mother the dirty job of bargaining, and a celebratory dance cuz we found what we were lookin' for:

What lesson(s) has wedding planning taught you?
