Our Wedding Day is Getting so Close!

Cakes, Flowers, Dresses, Tuxes, Music......All of it is coming together!  We are so excited about our wedding day.  We went to get our marriage license today in the pouring rain!  It was an entertaining experience.  As we were sitting there waiting our turn, we learned several interesting facts by listening to the clerk counsel the couple before us. 
We just have to share a few........
* In the state of Tennessee, it is legal to marry your first cousin.  This is for "those mountain people." 
* Mississippi will consider you a "common law" marriage after seven years, but your common law spouse cannot add you to his/her insurance.  The couple in front of us seemed very upset about this, but decided to go ahead and get married.  They have been dating since 1990.....and insurance is what brings them to the Justice of the Peace to say "I do"......
* The sweetest moment was when an elderly man came up to us and said, "I hope yours will be as wonderful as mine!"  Precious!

Well four more days to go until the big day!  The next four days will be very busy and exciting!
