Wedding Day and Honeymoon!
Hey guys we are back and I'm happy to share all our adventures on our big day and honeymoon lol!
Well the big day was as nerve wrecking as I imagined it. I was seperated from Xeno for what felt like forever, trying to keep the faith that my step dad, the best man and groosmen aka my step dad, my sister (matrion of honor)'s husband, my first brother, and second brother, would take care of him and help him get ready while my sisters, niece and mother helped me get ready!
My wedding dress was a nightmare to get into but i had stuck to my diet so well it was actually semi loose? lol but it still fit so no worries there. My baby sister, who's pregnant (WAT?? LOL) did my hair, she curled it and parted it and clipped beautiful red rose clips in it. My 2nd eldest sister did my makeup. As expected with any wedding never going exactly to plan, she was sick poor thing but sucked it up for my big day. We were short on makeup and hair supplies but lord and behold both sisters worked together to make this black queen look persentable. LOL no in all honesty I cried when I saw myself, they really did an amazing job with my hair and makeup. Once I stood up in my bridey best, the photographer took sevearl pictures (which I aim to post here with blanked out faces soon as I get them), and then... my step father came in, saying they are ready... *gulps*
Meanwhile, as Xeno would tell me later, he on the stage/alter with all the maids and groomsmen, Xeno was standing in center with Justice of the Peace...his palms sweating, his heart beating, waiting for me to come out. The bridal march played (thanks to my step brother) and me and my step dad stepped out... our friends and family all standed and waited with big smiles, going "ooh and ahh!" at me omg *blushes big*. My step dad would tell me in my excitment and nervousness to get it all over with, would say "Take your time hone... its your big day, you only get it once... no rush " which helped me alot... we got to the stage/alter...and the ceremony began. During a prayer break, Xeno's choice of song played, which was this:

He and I laughed so hard at the irony of the song, and then his best man and the groosmen began to dance LOL, then my sister and maids also started dancing, then he and I actually started dancing LOL the crowd cheered! Then the Peace officer continued with the ceremony... we placed our rings on, said our vows... and boy did we KISSY!!! lol! After that all I could hear was "GITTER'DONE" and it was party time! The whole time the ceremony and party went on, his family was watching live on skype from a laptop camera curtiousy of my step dad once again. Yes his family still got to see the wedding to our relief despite not being there in person. It was a great day!
Honeymoon:
So we drove to San Antonio, and of course I got lost trying to find our suite, which was the Raun Haus mansion, Bed & Breakfast, near the Riverwalk. But luckily with us working together and a tiny family phone call, we got there safetly. The next day we went to Sea World, and of COURSE we got lost in the middle of the dang city trying to find it! But Xeno kept this old blacky calm while he looked at the map, and as if by true test of patience and loyalty in this marriage, we both found our way to the park and had a great time. We got to see dolphines up close, a funny pet show (educational too because all their pet stars were adopted from the ASPCA), got some pizza, and cool trinkets such as for xeno, a new tshirt, I got a shamoo coffee mug lol! Then we went to see the Shamoo Show, but to our surprise, shock and amazement, there was NO show! Instead we got to see something more amazing, a mircale of life! A new baby orca whale, that was not more then 8 days old! A female, and the 29th baby cafe born in captivity. Mama and baby were doing well and we learned some amazing facts. Like a mama whale putting on 500lbs throughout a 17month pregnancy! WAAAAAAAAAAAH. We got back to our hotel soon after, and then he and I both recieved a surprised text from my mother.. My second elder sister... is pregnant AGAIN!!! *faints* so we got another little bundle of joy on the way. NO not from me and Xeno, not any time soon lol.
The next day, we went to the San Antonio Riverwalk, and buy god was it a walk! We spent the day getting lost following the river itself, going into gardens, shops, malls, eating ice cream and dining out. I got Red Velvet Cake Ice Cream. i mean OMG!! We stayed till about 7pm, by then it was dark and the whole place was lit up in Christmas Bliss, it was quite an amazing site.
Now we are back home, safe and sound, and had LOADS of wedding gifts to open up WAAAH. We got (another) deep fryer, a can opener, some cups, bed sheets, money and more money lol! Phew...
So I guess at this point fillies and gentlecolts I guess the question is, "what are you two gonna do next"? Sleep... LOL! In all honesty, I gotta change my last time on my driver's liscenes, social security, bank account etc etc, on all my active accounts to be honest. Get Xeno onto my bankaccount, get him a phone, go through stage 3 immigration to make hmm an offical working citizen, blah blah blah. At this point though we're just happy the worst is over, the wedding is done, we are happily Husband and Wife and couldn't be more thrilled.
