We went down to the courthouse and paid for the marriage license and I also picked up new tags for my car. The marriage license was more expensive, not sure what that says about the state of Texas’ fees.
Also picked out a nice new jacket, shirt, tie and pants to wear on our wedding day.
Robin and I went over the list of things left to do and now it is all about the details. We have a few outstanding tasks, but I think we have almost covered most of the big details. Going to the courthouse tomorrow to get the marriage license and have a meeting scheduled with the minister tomorrow as well.
My parents came down and picked up some big items that Robin and I don’t need so now I am in my apartment with no kitchen table, no couch and the boys bunkbeds are gone. Little by little I am packing up my life to get ready to move it to Robin’s
The date is just around the corner, I picked up the rings today and they look very nice. Briana asked why I didn’t have any diamonds on my ring and I just looked at her and said that is just how it is….the women get the sparkly stuff and the guys are stuck with a round piece of metal (just kidding)
Robin and I finally found our wedding bands. Of course with her small fingers, we have to get hers sized and with my large fingers they almost have to do my ring custom. Hopefully mine will turn out ok. That is one more thing off the list. The rings should be ready by the end of the week.
After an exhaustive coast to coast search, Robin finally found her dress but she had to go to San Antonio to get it. Guess I will see what all the fuss is about on the wedding day.
I think it has dawned on us both we have lots left to do. A little bit of stress is creeping in. Robin now says we should just go to Vegas. Should we let Elvis marry us?
Although I have until April 30 to move out of my apartment, I started boxing things up and decided to take a few things over to Robin’s house so I don’t have to deal with it all at once.
Robin confirmed the date with minister to perform the ceremony. We have a place, we have a time and we have someone to make it official.
