Such a wonderful day!!
Today was the day Michael and I were getting our marriage license and wedding rings. YAY! I took a vacation day from work so we wouldn’t have to rush around on lunch breaks, and I am so glad I did! We didn’t start off too early - slept in, took our time getting ready, and yes, I did get my breakfast this morning.
We finally were off to Kay Jewelers in hopes of finding something in our budget. Michael and I decided that we weren’t going to spend a whole lot on rings. We don’t need anything fancy, and we definitely have better things to spend money on right now! After the usual “If you apply for Kays credit…!” and the annoying lady showing me nothing but rings that were WAY above budget, she finally pulled out a very simple ring that will get the job done! (I couldn’t get any clear pictures to come out, so as soon as I get one, I will post it!). Then we were off to the court house - that was fun. We got there, and was told they don’t take debit or checks, so we get the application and head to the bank. We finally made it back, and, they were closed for lunch! Of course the lovely gentleman for the County Clerk forgot to mention they close for lunch from 12-1… I guess we’ll come back later! After a quick trip home, and a couple of minutes of laying down, we headed back to the court house. So, at 11:30 a.m., February 13th, Michael and I will become man and wife!
After we were done at the court house, we hit Taco Bell for a quick lunch (which was… wonderful…), then off to Hood River we went! Michael had seen a ring at Wal Mart that he liked, and would do him just fine for the time being. We didn’t spend much more then 10 minutes in the store, and we were off again. It was such a beautiful day today - chilly, probably no more then 50 degrees with a brisk breeze - but there wasn’t a cloud in the sky. So nice! We decided to bring Torro down to the river to run around a little, and boy did he love it! Spending some time in the fresh air did us both good, and soaking in the beatiful weather was the perfect ending to a wonderful day!
