Took a mini-vacation to NYC this weekend, which was fun. Saw some friends and family (Aunt Ellen and Uncle Mark and their family, also my other cousin Ben and his fiancée), ate bagels and borscht, visited The Cloisters, caught a photography exhibition done by one of my cousins, drank lots of coffee, talked a lot about weddings.

Wedding planning has begun in earnest. There are a lot of logistics to figure out, but even focusing on the big structure of where and when is a lot of work. Everyone's asking me if we've decided on a date, we're pinning that down as quickly as we can.
