Marriage

Last Saturday Candy and Tony had a ceremony to renew their vows. Before the big day Angelique helped Candy and me prepare for a party that would follow the ceremony. She helped clean, shop and cook. She was really excited for the party, but we hadn't really talked much about the fact that the ceremony had to do with their marriage. The ceremony took place in Tony's church and it was great. The priest talked about how Christ's first miracle happened at a wedding, which I hadn't really realized.
Of course, Candy and Tony cried. It was really sweet to see how much they still love each other.
After the ceremony there was a big party outside, complete with tents and tons of ribs and yes David was in heaven!!! They even had a cake made with a picture of them cutting their cake at their wedding:) The whole thing was lovely. I forgot my camera however and so I have no pictures from the event. Hopefully Candy will post some on her blog soon :) (hint, hint)
On the way home Gigi piped up- Mommy and Daddy are married. I turned around and she had a gigantic grin on her face. It was adorable to see her so happy about the fact that David and I are married :)
Well, later that night Angelique got to the clean clothes basket (which was full of sheets and blankets because Gigi had thrown up so much we had to wash a lot of them). Gigi found one of her fitted sheets. It was white and she put it on her head. She then asked for flowers. I really had no clue what she was doing until I gave her the flowers. Then she explained that she was getting married. It was really cute to see her walk around really seriously talking about getting married. We joked that she could marry Bjorn (my friend's little boy, whom she hasn't seen for over a year) and she got really excited about the idea. The whole next day she kept reciting, Bjorn, Bjorn, Bjorn. It was fun to see her so excited about getting married :)
