Update

My grandmother is stable. She is in recovery and will probably still be there through the weekend until she is able to return to the nursing home. I'm going back to see her in the morning. In the meantime, I'm beat...it's time for bed. More later...

License to Wed

Signing the license. Don't know what that shadow was...Putting the ring on my finger. Looking into my eyes...doesn't get any better than that. Well... Making it official...
Posing with the judge. Loved the glasses. :-)
He's lecturing us about being good spouses for one another. To bad he then gave me an out...He said if Antonio ever went back on his word, I could come back with my signed marriage license as proof that he had promised to be nice to me. :-) Just kidding. The guy was a "trip" though, entertaining....

I now pronounce you...

Celebrating after the ceremony.
I now pronounce you...
...husband and wife!
Awwww :-)

Hugs

Mary and I
Julie and the girls, Jessica and Dawn

Wedding Ceremony

Mom talks with the two of us before the ceremony. At this point, I think she's just trying to calm me down. The justice of the peace got the time wrong!! Or "actually", his secretary mistakenly told him a half hour later than the time we were scheduled. Nothing like having the celebrant late for the ceremony. We waited outside in the heat for 10 minutes before I was "sent" to the car. Luckily I sat with Lisa and Julie and they were the voices of reason until the guy showed up. My sisters kept me calm and reasonable until we were ready to go in for the ceremony. My mom was right in thinking I was getting nervous being up in front of everyone while we waited for the justice to come back in the room. So, she just came up and began talking to us about random things. It kept me calm. Soon it was time to begin.

Our first kiss as husband and wife.

LIFE

I know, I know it's been awhile. Life....just happens sometimes. Which is how I now have time to post...My grandmother is having surgery this morning in NY. My mom and I flew into Buffalo, NY yesterday. As I am waiting to hear an update, I needed something to do, so I'm spending some time on the computer, uploading photos, etc. Let's hope I can remotely access everything I need. Nervous energy, I guess. I have to be doing something.
