How is your ceremony with Rev. April going? I still can't stop thinking about how great ours was, and I know you won't be disappointed. I know I sound like I'm adverstising for her, but even my sister said that she completely forgot to fix the train on my dress and take my boquet because she was so amazed by April's words! Hope everything is going well for you.

Re: Marnles
Awww - Nina - thanks so much for thinking of me. And I'm soooo thrilled for you that everything went perfectly!! Well, we really didn't need that much 'tweeking'. We sent the first draft back with our corrections, and literally a day later she was done! She is just amazing like that. It's so beautiful. We really can't wait - still 6 months to go!! We still have to pick a couple of readings (nonbiblical), and still have to pick the people to do them! That will be it. The words themselves are finished. What makes me the happiest is how impressed Chris is with Rev. April. I never thought it would affect him the way it has. We were talking to someone and they said that some aren't as willing to have a woman officiate as man. Of course I started to get a little testy at that comment, but I didn't have to say a word - Chris did that! He said on the contrary, that a woman can say it better than a man. He said he wouldn't have it any other way and would give his right arm to be able to put feelings into words the way Rev. April does!!
Thanks again for thinking of me!! By the way - WHERE ARE THE PICTURES FROM YOUR WEDDING!! I'm dying to see you!!

Re: Marnles
That is so cool that he said that! He's absolutely right! A few people also commented to me about a woman performing our ceremony, and it actually didn't even occur to me how uncommon it is until they said something. So horray for April and the female spirit!!!
Well, I pick up my proofs this Wednesday, and I also have disposables that I have to drop off this weekend. I was just telling Peter that we have to get access to a scanner so that I can post pics here. But, we don't want to spend the money on one right now (now that the wedding is over, saving for a house). I've only been at my job for a few months and it's a really big office, so I don't know where I can find one here either. Hopefully, someone will help me out.
