Another wedding?
As most of our friends and family know, all of whom regret ever asking, this visa thing I came down to the US on is complicated. We had what looked and felt like a wedding in Vancouver except it was not legally binding as my visa is actually a fiancee visa requiring that we marry in the US.
Last week we picked up our marriage licence at the Charlotte-Mecklenburg county registry and this Friday we are getting married in the courthouse. I think the proceding will take all of 10 minutes -- we will show up and wait for the first available appointment between 2 and 4pm. Sean's aunt and uncle, Jenny and Luther Vann have graciously agreed to come down from Winston-Salem and our friends Dan and Debbie Hemmingsen are also going to be able to be there.
My sister Tilly thought I was kidding when I told her we were getting married on Halloween, but we've been trying to organize this for about a month with both Sean's schedule and that of our mandatory witnesses, and waiting another week just seemed sillier than worrying about the date. No, we are not wearing costumes, and yes we are going to celebrate September 14th as our wedding anniversary.
Speaking of costumes last weekend as part of my birthday present from Sean we went to the Renaissance Festival in Concord, NC. You should check out the pictures and Sean's write-up. It was a lot of fun. Sean is still trying to convince me to go in costume next year.
Well that's our news, hope all is well with you and yours. We love to see comments on our guestbook.
