September 5th

It's officially set folks! Nate and I are getting married September 5th! All I have to say to that is halle-freakin-luia! It's about time we can set a date! Now, I'm sure you all have one question on your mind...


Did we get an answer from the First Presidency? Not yet. Let me explain. We found out a couple weeks ago that the First Presidency requested a letter from Nate's bishop to add to the paperwork we have already sent. They said they have looked at everything else we have sent them and are pretty much ready with a decision, but we had to get that letter sent off from Nate's bishop before they'd send us our response. So basically we expect an answer either way here in the next few days, so we felt it safe to set a date because we will be able to get married either way. It's everyone's theory that the First Presidency will be granting the cancellation of the sealing and that we will be able to get sealed the day we get married. I hope so. So we are going ahead like that is what is going to happen, but if for whatever reason they say no or that they want us to wait a year before we get sealed, that's fine. We have plan B still lined up if we need to get married civilly.


At this point, I'm just elated that we have an actual date! It almost felt like we were going to be engaged forever! It's just a big sigh of relief that we have finally can say to each other "just a few more weeks......................."
