Well, I bought a dress for my courthouse wedding (in July)...if anyone has ever met me in person, I hardly ever wear skirts or dresses, so the fact that I bought a dress signifies a special occasion...

Four weeks from today, Darren comes home...I need to start scrubbing the apartment from top to bottom; I want it to be sparkling when he gets here!!!

Well the fun starts tomorrow! His family gets in to town tomorrow night, then my Grandma gets in Wednesday, and the rest of my family on Friday!!

I so want to try my dress on again but I can't... it's in the cardboard that makes it keep the right form and it's all pressed and ready to go. Only bummer is... that it's supposed to rain all week...

OH WELL!! 5 more days and we are married!!!

WOW!!! 5 more days!!! Getting very excited I bet.

You guys will be getting married soon. you will all be MRS. before we get there. I am very happy for all of you....

Right now, I am busy organizing my half sister's 18th birthday.. i will be scouting for wedding dress design after my sister's birthday.. I still have 3 months to have a custom made dress anyways so I hope I could really find the design that will be perfect soon.

[Alex & Rachel 78]

I've found some gorgeous designs on ebay...all for women whose body shapes and sizes in no way resemble mine! I'm probably going to end up with a jacket/skirt combo.

[dbears 1]

You are not alone there.. future step daughter actualy offered to accompany me to go dress hunting when i get to NC but i declined coz I am sure it will cost more to have alterations done for the dress. That is the main reason why I am opting to have the dress sewn for me at least it will really fit me not some stick figure they call a model.

Okies Im gonna claim winning the Jackpot if my scan is clear on Friday, lol.

It will be here before you know it Dawn. I'm still looking for a dress for our civil ceremony. We aren't doing it at the courthouse, the minister who is doing our family wedding in September, is also doing our civil one -- we just have to decide here at the house, or some park, or on the lake, etc.

Hope the time passes quickly so you can be together!!!

I'm sure everything will turn out fine.

On a side note for us ... we went to the Social Security Administration today (11 business days, 16 days) since Stephen arrived. We got there before they opened, we got ticket #207 (#8 in line). So we waited 20 minutes outside the building, then got the number, then waited another 15-20 minutes, got up to the window, hand over the application, and his passport with visa & I-94 in it. We sit there quietly for a few minutes and she then looks up and says, sorry, he's not in the system, we'll have to file paperwork with DHS/INS to find his file. "How long will that take?" --- 4-6 weeks .... Umm, NOT! North Carolina requires a SSN# to get married (he can sign a waiver as a last resort)... but he prefers to have the SSN#, because without it, the license will take longer. So instead, we took the SSN# application back, and she gave us a phone number to INS, to find out where his file is, and perhaps we can go back in a week to apply.

Every state is different ... even all the SSA offices are different .... let the waiting continue
