Chit Chat

We decided to go ahead and get married this weekend.......

---and have a "thank you for your support" party on the date we were originally going to be married.  We were talking last night and decided that since we were having such a tiny wedding and it was not either of our first time around.... WHY wait around?  We know we love each other and our kids are even saying "Why are y'all waiting?"  

One of the main reasons we were having a "ceremony" was because our kids wanted something.... WELL, we are going to include them in a small thing with an officiant this weekend and let them dress up and have the nice party later to thank everyone. We will still go on the honeymoon we had planned after that party, as well.  

 I KNOW, I am sort of insane, but it comes with the territory as an impulsive artist.  I had told my friends that I wouldn't be surprised if I were them if I pulled something like this.  Let me be really clear about one thing, though.  EVERYONE at the reception/thank you party WILL know we are already married, there will be NO attempt to try and pretend.  

I know it is crazy, but liberating too....  We have both been through so much, I am 40 and he is 45 and we are ready to begin some serious happiness!

  • 1. Yay! So exciting
    2. No way are you 40. I would have guessed 30 or so from your pic.

    You'll never be subject to a cash bar, gap, potluck wedding, or b-list if you marry a Muppet Overlord.
