Good for you, children shouldn't be allowed to play with such things. :lol: I believe Laura was also getting married at the same hour of the forenoon, mere coincidence??? :blink::lol: Looking forward to the pictures, especially those from the honeymoon. :devil::devil::devil: Congratulations again. :thumbs::dance:

Congrats to both of you! I hope both of your days were amazing!

"...My hair's mostly wind,

My eyes filled with grit

My skin's white then brown

My lips chapped and split

I've lain on the prairie and heard grasses sigh

I've stared at the vast open bowl of the sky

I've seen all the castles and faces in clouds

My home is the prairie and for that I am proud…

If You're not from the Prairie, you can't know my soul

You don't know our blizzards; you've not fought our cold

You can't know my mind, nor ever my heart

Unless deep within you there's somehow a part…

A part of these things that I've said that I know,

The wind, sky and earth, the storms and the snow.

Best say that you have - and then we'll be one,

For we will have shared that same blazing sun." - David Bouchard

Congrats!!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

Thanks guys!!

Yesterday was great!!! :)

We got married in Central Park at the ladies pavilion at 11am. It was wonderful!!! My best friend Shelby drove down from Canada to stand up with me, I was so happy to have her be there.

There were children and people walking by and this old man came into the gazebo and watched and cheered for us when we kissed.

We took many pictures before and after (I'll upload soon, we are off to the renaissance fair today!!!) Shortly after the ceremony we got a call from a friend who told us to seek shelter...a huge storm had just passed through Jersey and was heading for us, boy was she right!!!

The clouds were rolling in, right behind the Ghost Busters buildings too!!! We just made it to our cars when the downpour came...lol.

We were a little upset because we wanted to go around the park and take more pictures but with the rain, obviously we couldn't.

We'll go back one day and take more :)

Then last night a bunch of our friends threw us an amazing party and we had a great time. It was perfect.

Thank so much for all the well wishes!!!! :) I can't believe I'm married!!! YAY

***Congrats to BH, I thought of you!!!!***

Congratulations Laura and Nick and BH45 and hubby!

Holy shite! Wasn't that quite the storm? My husband and I were driving back from Atlantic City as it started to come down. Every one had to pull over because no one could see for about 5 minutes. Everything flooded around my area, like usual...but it was massive.

It was crazy!!! LOL I have a really funny picture of Shelby and I walking back to the car with the strong wind and the look on my face is priceless!!!

LOL We kept singing the Ghost Busters theme song and saying quotes from the movie cause the sky looked like in the movie and it was just so funny.

I've heard it's good luck to have rain after the ceremony so, we should have lots of it!!!
