Our second wedding!!

I'm Catholic.  Some would say that I'm 'very Catholic', enough where I'll go to church while on vacation even if it's in another country and will follow the Lenten rules, fasting & all that (apparently some people don't).

While I'm still very Catholic, I didn't want to make Alex's family feel awkward or out of place during our wedding and we opted for a retired Catholic priest to perform our ceremony but kept the actual ceremony non-religious.  I was 100% happy with our decision then and I still am.

Now, being Catholic, I'm obligated to have our marriage blessed by the Catholic church and being Catholic, I was excited to have our marriage blessed by the church.  So Alex & I started the process last December, met with the priest at my parish and had our marriage prep classes and the FOCCUS survey etc.

Today, I get to re-marry the love of my life and renew our vows under the blessing of God.  YAY!!!!
