September/22/2005

Well.... Tom and I had desided to renew our vowles... sorry I didn't post this earlyer. The wedding will take place in the time period of 1860....yup you got it, we will be in period clothes. Of course we are gonna have pictures taken plus a video tape.

Where this will take place at is the at the Battle of Honey Springs. It will be Sept/24/2005. It is going to be very hot. Here is what the preacher will read:

You, sir, take the lady you hold by the hand, as your own lawful wife, by the laws of the land; Engaging to love her, and give her your aid, When health shall attend her, or sickness invade; To povide and support her, your covenant, sir; To forsake other lovers and cleave unto her; And do as God's law and the statutes advise, Till God send his message to sever these ties.

And you, lady, take him whom you hold by the hand, To be your own husband, by the laws of the land; Engaging to cherish, to honor and love Him in sickness and health, through what comes from above. His pleasures and sorrows you promise to share, As God's holy law and the statutes declare; Till Death, as a messenger sent from the skies, Shall sunder you from him, and sever these ties.

To assent to these pledges, on you I now call, That they may be known by disjoining your hands. Now I, by authority vested in me, Declare that you husband and wife shall now be, And call on all present, who purposely came, And God, your Creator, to witness the same.
