And I am like..."Ok, yes Sweetheart that's right! Can we please git back to what I was talking about?" :lol::lol::lol: He just blurts out random information that they may ask him at the interview! He is so nervous and he KNOWS all of the info!!

So, I will be going to hold my Man's hand and let him know that NO ONE...(accept G-d Almighty) will keep us apart! Suh jus answer dem dyam foo-foo question dem suh we can guh home han rooks some more before mi haffi leave! ;);):lol:

Congrats on the interview Gill!! So happy for you! Looks like your well on your way......so....what we haven't talked about is your wedding. If its not too personal...have you made plans for a wedding, or are you just doing a civil. Yuh kno we need anodda wedding fi attend afta Toya han Fitz'

Happy Birthday JAE!!

Hey Lita,

Fi tell yuh deh truth gurl...we haven't really thought that hard about it! It will be VERY small (we want to do a bigger one in JA on our 3-5th anniversary). Since he will PROBABLY be here late march...we will have til late june to git married. We have talked about May 23, 2008 (exactly 18 months after we first met)...but we'll see.

I have imagined 15-20 of our closest family in my church's old chapel (it's quaint & much smaller than the current one +

I married 'The A$$hole' (my ex) in the current one.) I am wearing a very simple wedding dress or suit...probably off-white or champange. Ken will be super handsome in his tux. His brother is his best man...my boys & my Dad will give me away! :D Then a wedding brunch afterwards. We are planning a family honeymoon in ATL & FL.(Disney) when the kids git out of school end of June.

I just want to get him here first! Then mi nuh really bizniz if we a git married pon deh Brooklyn Bridge!...WHATEVER...JUST GIT HERE KENNY!! :lol: Gurl, I have learned that the wedding isn't nearly as important as the marriage! :luv: Which is what I am REALLY looking forward to

Bless-Bless,

Gill

Thanks Tam....I worked on it for 20 minutes :lol: !

See what happens once you finally get approved? Now I'm taking the time to learn how to actually navigate the control panel! :lol:

I'm right with ya' Gill....haven't thought much about "the wedding", still trying to accept getting approved for now. I love your idea of a small wedding here and a bigger ceremony later down the line. Either way, the marriage is more important than the ceremony....For Sure!
