The BIG day

Today is the day.  THE day.  In less than 8 hours from now we will be married.  Phones have been going off since 7:30 this morning.  Granted, the first was work, but after that they just kept ringing, beeping and buzzing with calls and text messages.  You people do know we’re hours behind you, right?  😛

It’s good, though.  No worries.  It was difficult getting to sleep as well as staying asleep.  Do you remember, as a kid, that feeling you got the night before Christmas?  It was so hard to go to sleep because of the anticipation of what the next day brought.  That’s how I felt last night.  I think Maria felt like that too.  After the buffet (p-a-r-t-y), we came up to the room and crashed on the bed while watching TV.  We were in fits of laughter for most of the evening.  Even things that weren’t that funny in all reality we found hilarious.  I can’t really remember a time when I was this happy.

    Thank you so much. And please don’t worry about the phones. We received calls and text messages from other people first. Besides, since we couldn’t be together today it’s nice to know everyone has us in their thoughts. You are certainly in ours.

    Well, just a few hours to go now and you will be Mr and Mrs Dotson. The vows you will make to each other take only a few seconds to say but we are all sure they will last for ever.
    That’s enough slush, go for it and really enjoy your big day.
