And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, you make me sing.
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.
You're every song, and I sing along.
'Cause you're my everything ...

As several of you know, we talked of a Vegas wedding. The logistics made sense as it's cheaper to fly my adult children there and I didn't want anymore stress in our lives....this whole process was stress enough. Then Jeff suggested Disneyland (LA) as he and his kids love it there. We toyed with that. Now that the dust has settled and we've enjoyed our 18 days of bliss together, it looks like we may be doing a small wedding afterall (and his mom's comment about wishing everyone could be together for it...gotta love guilt lol). We own a beautiful home in Washington with a perfect courtyard for a wedding. It looks like he's going home to freshen some paint, possibly build a gazebo and let the planning begin! lol We're looking at an October wedding (trying to coordinate 4 adult children is not an easy task) and possibly themed. As of this hour, we haven't chosen the them yet, but costumes are abundant that time of year...I may see the bride of Frankenstein in my future hehe.

All I know for sure is the calm in my soul now. We've been 'married in heart' since the day we met and this is a mere formality... so we're going to have some fun with it :)

What a lovely post, bride of Frankenstein too funny.....I can't wait for the calm in our spirits and souls to arrive, been a long haul indeed, and more to come yet. I wish I knew our wedding plans, I think a civil service in the State Capital will be topping on the cake, seeing we had to endure this process, and it would be so official to have the nuptials there...quess we will both need to plan something once we are finally together, I just pray we dont' get so enraptured finally being together we forget to get married...YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He is finally home with me! :)

We crossed yesterday at the Ambassador bridge in Detroit. It was kind of busy so we had to wait for about an hour but otherwise everything went smoothly. The only thing he was asked is if he was considering that to be his official move and when we were getting married. So glad this is over even though it feels like the stress is just beginning. :blink:

How Nice!!! I will POE at Peace Bride on Sept 6, and praying all goes well and the movers will take care that all my household effects will arrive sound and safe soon after my arrival. I do worry though, that we don't have an actual date for our marriage yet, I am hoping it will happen the same day he proposed: Sept 26. I hope this will work for the Immigration officials should they ask...keep our fingers crossed.
