The Wedding 7-22-09

As soon as Terry got here, we went to the County building to apply for our marriage license. It only took 10 minutes. We then went to the store to find table coverings for the reception and napkins. Pastor's daughter was making us a cake. I asked Terry what he thought about having some flowers, a bouquet for me and a boutineer for himself. We found a flower shop near the post office and the lady there agreed to make a bouquet for me in one day.

Wednesday rolls around and we finally headed to the church. I lead worship and Pastor Gallegos and Bishop Hutchinson shared in the wedding service. I lasted over an hour and a half. It included a ceremonial foot washing along with his wife Lois and communion. When we do the reception at the end of August we'll just have the vows redone. I don't think we'll have the communion and Bishop won't be here either.

Although the service was long, several people were shedding tears for us. I was happy and relieved that Terry had arrived safely and that we would be sharing the rest of our lives together here in New Mexico. He doesn't want to think about moving for a long time.

To date, Terry hasn't found work yet but has done some side jobs with the company he worked with out of Albuquerque, doing reports on possible repos and foreclosures. Most of them now are vehicles. He has been irritated and frustrated but he's doing the best he can under the circumstances.

Pictures will follow.
