1997 October 25th

13 years ago today I married my man in our back yard.  The weather was perfect for our Halloween Costume party.  The yard was filled with hay bales, grave yards, tents, decorations, sounds of music and laughter from all of our friends.  We came as the Bride and Groom to the surprise of the guests we actually were married.  They didn’t believe it at first…they thought it was staged but the minister quickly let them know that it was for REAL…..A few of them knew….all of my Bridesmaids dressed in old prom dresses, The best man who was the grim reaper, of course my lovely daughter Scarlett O’Hara….It was a fantastic wedding filled with ghouls, goblins, clowns, Queen of the Fleet, referees, singing nuns, cherub angels, old men and women…..our friends still tell us that it was the most fun they have ever had at a wedding.  Chris and I would not have changed a thing….except for the part where he dropped the ring in all the hay and confetti.  We had to stop the ceremony, get a flash light to find it…..just when he was about to put the ring on my finger to our surprise the neighborhood kid Dare program was doing a march down the street chanting “JUST SAY NO, JUST SAY NO”…..PRICELESS
