Just Married!

Well I am officially married in the Catholic Church!!  Today was our "wedding" it didn't take long.....not like my daughter's hour and half Catholic wedding!  It was more like a blessing than a wedding, but it does not matter it's official.  Now it's onto the next step getting myself confirmed, can't wait till that happens!!!  Then I will finally be a "Complete Catholic"!

The Date Has Been Set!

It is OFFICIAL!!!!! Saturday, October 25, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. I will finally be married in the eyes of the Catholic Church! I am just as excited about this as I was when we first got married in 2003!  It's what I've been working on for the last two years!

It seemed like a very long journey just getting my annulment (and it was!) but things are falling into place as they should be.  I guess the lesson here is patience....something I have very little of, but am learning to accept the fact that I can't have everything when I want it.  I will tell you this.....it's well worth the wait!

It's A Go!

I was a nervous wreck, I woke up at 2:00 a.m. and could not go back to sleep, had a bad headache, and an upset stomach.  All because today was the day we went in to talk to Fr. Mark.

I have to say I was very intimidated by him not sure why because I am hard pressed to think of anyone I have ever been intimidate by.  It was crazy.....he met us at the door and took us in a room to get all the paper work out of the way.  We went over the application for a lack of a better term, I went first it was a breeze! My hubby went next, I was worried he would use "colorful" words (part of the reason I was all nervous), but he was good and didn't.  Thank God!!

Fr. Mark didn't waste anytime getting a "wedding date" he said he was free on Saturday so he penciled us in for 10:00 a.m. October 18th, unfortunately our witness's are not available.  I would rather wait until the 25th or even the 1st  or the 8th of  November.  No rush now that I know things are in place.  This is such a weight off of me.  I thought that he might make us do pre-cana classes, I guess at our age he knows this is a forever thing.

He did bring up the fact that I want to be confirmed he said we could talk about that at a later date.  THAT, is the one thing I really wanted.  Once that happens I guess I will have to change the name of my blog. LOL! Then I will be a COMPLETE CATHOLIC!  I can't wait to say that!
