What Not to Do on Your Honeymoon

November 18th, 2009 @ 6:20 pm by Mrs. Mouse

Now that my honeymoon recaps are done, I thought I’d share with you guys some of the things we did wrong. Hopefully someone can learn from our mistakes! By the way, I see now why people tend to go to tropical islands on their honeymoons instead of gallivanting through Europe: it’s exhausting! (But totally worth it, in my opinion.) At any rate, here’s our list…

Mice in Europe: Athens

Well, folks, this is it. My final honeymoon recap post. It’s been fun sharing our experiences in Europe with all of you. Be sure and stay tuned for a post on travel tips and, of course, the wedding recaps!

When I left you last, I said that our ferry from Naxos was heading back to Santorini–what was that all about? Well, we had booked our ferry…

Mice in Europe: Naxos

November 9th, 2009 @ 12:00 pm by Mrs. Mouse

Sure, we were sad to leave Santorini. It truly felt like paradise. (Well, paradise where you can’t flush paper down the toilet, but paradise nonetheless.) But we were so excited to hop on our first ferry to Naxos!

We arrived just in time to see the sun setting over the Temple to Apollo. Kind of apropos, since he was the sun god after all.

Mice in Europe: Santorini

November 3rd, 2009 @ 10:33 am by Mrs. Mouse

Our first stop in Greece was Santorini. Santorini is a small, circular archipelago of volcanic islands located in the southern Aegean Sea, about 120 miles southeast from Greece’s mainland. The main island is called Thira, and the most beautiful part of the island, where the main thrust of restaurants and hotels is located, is called Oia. We thought it was really cool that Santorini is…

When I left you guys, we had just seen the Eiffel Tower sparkle in all its Disney-esque glory. We woke up the next morning, had breakfast in our hotel, and took the Metro to the rail station, where we would get on our train to Milan. We were sad to leave Paris but so excited about what was next!

Somehow on the third day in Paris, we managed to take zero photos. So this post is all video. I apologize if you’re reading this from work, and you can’t watch them!

It was our final day in Paris, and we decided to spend the day in Versailles—if you’re not familiar with it, Versailles is a city located just a little outside of Paris. It’s the…

Mice in Europe: Paris Part II

October 16th, 2009 @ 3:40 pm by Mrs. Mouse

For our second day in Paris, I decided to take the Dude to a few of my favorite Parisian locales from when I was there six years ago. Since he didn’t care about museums, I planned a day packed with as many iconic Paris sites as possible. We started off the day with a Metro ride to Champs-Elysees, the gorgeous tree-lined shopping district, at the…

Why hello there, hive. It’s good to be back!

Look, it’s candy mice! Right in between candy swans and candy piglets! I saw these at a chocolate shop in Paris and couldn’t resist taking a picture.

Now that I’ve distracted you with cuteness, my recaps can officially begin! I’m going to start with our European honeymoon. Originally we wanted to go to Greece, but we decided it…

Here Comes the Sun

I don’t do well with expressing sentimental ideas. Nothing I type seems adequate to describe how happy I am that our wedding day is finally here. So I’ll start with this: Today I’m marrying my favorite person in the world, and I feel so lucky.

In the past week, everything that could have gone wrong has. I found out at the last minute that the bust…

About Mrs. Mouse

There are so many projects that I’m in the middle of right now that I can’t wait to share with you guys. For now, I’ll let you in on all of my "somethings" that I’ve gathered for the big day.

Something old: One day a few months ago I was at my mom’s house. She was giving me an old tin to possibly use in my wedding, so I started cleaning out all of the stuff in it. I found a delicate little ring with a row of diamonds across the top. My mom had never seen it before, but she assumed it had belonged to her grandmother---my great-grandma.

A Shower That Rocks

September 1st, 2009 @ 5:28 pm by Mrs. Mouse

OK, I have to ‘fess up. From the moment that I got engaged, I thought I wanted no part of the wedding shower tradition. It just seemed so… traditional. A close friend of ours (who is doing a reading in our ceremony) made an offer to throw me one right after she found out we were engaged, and I refused. “We’re not registering,” I said,…
