The Little Big Day

After 23 days in Europe (with a tour group, then staying in hostels and homes) we promised ourselves to have a San Diego 'date day' to celebrate the trip, being back home in the USofA and to celebrate 5-12, a day that's long had more significance to me than my birthday. For those that don't know, 512 is my...uhm, "lucky" number as it shows up very frequently in my life as well as for many who know me. On this particular day, we were also celebrating the official (legal) kick-off of my new business, "Studio 512".



The unsuspecting Kellye Dana Wilborn. Aka: "Tiny".


It was a very normal, low-key Kellye/Eddie day. We checked out some art on Coronado, grabbed some KFC and headed to the park for a bite. What's a day together without me taking a million photos?


We saw several weddings taking place. Kinda funny that way.



The ever-important foot pictures.


Shootin' her own video. I'm (sort of) into that.



The beautiful Hotel Del.



You can sort of see a plaque by my ugly feet. Detail shot to come...



Making our way back to the car.



With Kellye next to me and the city behind us, even I can look presentable. Notice the 'superman blanket' keeping us warm between shots.


What's this? Yet another wedding?


As amazing as Europe was, it's good to be home....safe - thanks to God.


Running around taking several photos to make sure I make good use of this lighting...and this moment. "Poor Honey. Your hearts really going." I didn't feel nervous, truthfully, but I guess Kell and my heart knew better.


With a simple question, she fell to her knees in disbelief and this was the resulting photo. I laughed - she cried - we hugged and gave it two very big thumbs up.


Taking the ferry over to Seaport village. Very much in a daze.


Gettin' the lens up in our grill. (It was self-taken)


The first person we told, Angie, excitedly took this photo of us in the hammock store.


After taking a picture of/for another couple, they took this one.


The hand-rail on the bridge took this one for us.


"He's her lobster." This one's for you Rachael P!


Contrary to popular belief, I did not design the ring. I 'designed' one similar and my guy, Aldo, found this one for me. Turns out, Kellye didn't hate it. And she really enjoyed the diamond. It belonged to her grandmother, whom we recently lost.


Returning on the ferry. Still hadn't eaten. Yep...still in a daze.


The evening wasn't complete w/o the fireworks. (Don't tell Kellye that I didn't plan those just for us.)


"Oh no. I didn't even get to fix my hair."



Our first "Date" was in a Denny's. Totally unplanned, but we found ourselves there this evening. We were stoked about it too!
