Hola, hive! Long time no see! Do you still remember me?
Well, let me refresh your memory. I moved to CA from Chile just a few months before our wedding. Mr. Poodle and I met while I was hitchhiking. We struggled with a very bumpy K1 Visa process while I started blogging to improve my English. We planned most of our wedding long-distance and pulled off a massive amount of DIY projects for our wedding day: I made my dress, my BMs‘ dresses, baked all our desserts and so much more! We even built our own outdoor chapel with the help of our family and friends.
OK, so now that you are all updated, let me tell you why I haven’t blogged in such a long time. You can blame it all on these:
Our thank you cards!
I promised myself I was not going to blog until I got all of those out of the way. I know it has being a very long time, but out of all our DIY projects I have to admit that this has been by far the hardest. I can’t remember the last time I’d handwritten that much in my life, but that might have to do with the fact that I wanted every message to be special and long. Hee hee!
Finally, today they are on their way to our friends and family. 
And just in case you want to see them, here is the design I made for our thank you postcards using one of my favorite wedding pictures:
I am so excited to get the recaps started and share our wedding day with all of you!
Man, I’ve been waiting for recaps, but I understand. I was hoping that you’d come back before my wedding, but oh well. By the way, thanks for the clay flower post. I made all my bouquets entirely from clay, except the dried french lavender.
Welcome back Mrs Poodle! ^_^ I love the post cards, what a cute picture!
Those look great!! I love the postcard idea! We are thinking about making STD postcards but are having trouble finding a good quality printer. Where did you order yours from?
YAY!!! I am soooo excited to hear about your day! I loved all of your DIY projects prior to the wedding, can’t wait to see them all in action!
Yay! You’re back! You were always one of my favorites and I am so glad you are going to start your recaps!!!!
Yay!!! I have been so eagerly anticipating your recaps! I love the DIY projects and can’t wait to see what else you have up your sleeve!
Welcome back! And good for you for getting your thank you cards done and for making them special. Thank you cards/postcards are a lost art! You’re my inspiration to get our’s started! Can’t wait for the recaps!
Welcome back!! I just found your blog the other day and was reading through and wondering when you would be back on the bee! Those postcards are too cute! Now I want to make some for ours!!
Woo Hoo! I’ve been wondering when you’d come back Poodle! Can’t wait for your recaps! 
I am SO EXCITED you’re back! Ever since I realized how epic your crafting skills are, I’ve wanted to see how your event came together. So happy you’ll be recapping it! And those cards are adorable.
So Happy you are back, I have been waiting and waiting for your re-caps!!!
Yay Poodle! U were one of my faves when I started reading the bee! Looking forward to your recaps =)
Hooray! I’m so glad you’re back, Mrs. Poodle! I can’t wait to read about everything!
Yay! Poodle! I’m so happy you’re back - I literally squealed! I was worried you weren’t going to recap - and I loved everything about your plans for your wedding! So excited to see how it all comes together - thank you!

Mrs. Poodle, Santiago, Chile/San Bernardino, CA Age and Occupation: 27, Industrial & Web Designer Fiance's Age and Occupation: 24, Firefighter & Mountain Patrol Engagement Date: February 25, 2009 Wedding Date: January 2010 Venue: Mr. P's Grandparents’ Ranch About Me: I’m a Chilean girl who's crazy about nature and swimming. I enjoy carving, drawing, reading and sewing; I drool over computers, fabric, pretty paper, purple and patterns. To me, chocolate should be one of the seven wonders, right next to lemon pie. I never thought an exchange work experience program was going to change my life forever, but while working in California, I met Mr. Poodle, and ever since my days are better and brighter. We are two goofy souls that, after finding each other, couldn’t help but want to be together forever. It has being a long and sometimes hard road, since we have to deal with such a long distance between us, but we are now facing the last stage of our Fiancé Visa, and soon we will be together. You know the best part? We will be married! So I’ll be blogging from Chile until just a few months before our “green and purple” wedding.
