Well we leave Thursday in the AM. We had to change some plans like for instance going to see the Lion King but we will have so much fun.
I can't wait we just packed and I couldn't be more excited. I'm also nervous but that is completely understandable. So so so excited. Check back for updates. I may be posting while we are gone or I may post several updates when we get back.
Later ya'll.

WE DID IT!!!!
We saved up enough to go to New York City. Our friend has agreed for us to crash with her and we have made many plans. We booked our flights and couldn't be more excited.
First things we plan to do on the day we arrive is go see the 9-11 Memorial as well as Times Square. We might eat at Bubba Gump Shrimp in Times Square too.
On Friday we are planning to go see The Statue of Liberty as well as Ellis Island and get our marriage license. Our friend also got us tickets to Ska/Reggae Booze Cruise. We may also go shopping to get Addie a costume for our event Saturday.
Saturday our plan is to participate in the Mermaid Parade and party with our friend. Our night plans are to see one of 2 Broadway musicals. We haven't decided which one yet but either Wicked or The Lion King.
Sunday we will be attending NYC Pride Parade and Event. That is all we have planned for Sunday at this time.
Monday we will be GETTING LEGALLY MARRIED!!!! Then that night we will be attending the 2nd Broadway Musical and hopefully seeing our other friend Jess. Sadly this will be our last day.
Tuesday EARLY AM we will be heading back to our home state. In hand we will have souvenirs, photos, videos and large tired smiles. We will be legally wed in 8 states and be awaiting our paperwork that shows this to the world.
Then we will sleep and get back to our lives as a happily married couple :D.

What's New
So we are still planning our trip to NYC to get legally married, (at least in the states that recognize it). We have put our first bit of money into savings.
Checking airfares and looks like for the 2 of us to fly to NY and back will be between 900-1100. So that is our first money saving goal.
I have also been looking at cost for us to do some things while we are there, such as visiting the statue of liberty, Ellis island, 911 memorial, and Broadway. I would also like to see Central Park, Grand Central, and Times Square. As a movie buff/ future filmmaker these are rated high on places to see. In addition we have to have money to eat and get around.
Also on our to-do list......NYC Pride, with Grand Marshal Cyndi Lauper!!!! This will be such a cool thing to do. Wish us luck on raising the money.
Check back for further updates. :D :D

Pictures
Here are just a few pictures from our time in Cozumel.
I have opened our cruise photos on my facebook so that you may see them.
I also opened our wedding photos so that you could see them as well.
Please enjoy and thank you for following us as we made our commitment to the world.
I am going to try to update as we plan our trip to NYC so that you can all see us through as we legalize our marriage.
The Wedding
Well I guess that last month of wedding prep took over my life and then I entered the honeymoon phase and never thought about my wedding blog for that I am so sorry.
Our wedding went off without a hitch really. Addie's sisters were sadly not able to be apart of the wedding nor did her biological mom show up or her adoptive parents or grandparents or aunts or uncles. But the family and friends that did show up made it a memorable event. I have posted the wedding video on my YouTube but will have to repost it as it did not post exactly right. We had a beautiful ceremony and reception.
We are still happily married as we move closer to our first anniversary. The exciting news is that we are planning a trip to NYC for us to get our marriage legalized. That means we will have a small ceremony with the JP or county clerk in NY. There I will change my last name and we will begin our life legally together. We aren't doing a big ceremony. We will have our friend Sarah there to be our witness and are going to go semi-casual for our dress wear.
I have decided to wear my corset top from our first ceremony, a pair of jeans, a simple veil (maybe) and have my hair the desired length that I wanted it last year. Addie hasn't told me what she plans to wear but I'm sure she'll be beautiful.
This trip is going to be amazing. We will get to see some sights that we have been wanting to for awhile as well as possibly see two Broadway shows and hang out with our friend Sarah. We are looking forward to this trip so much.
We had what we considered our honeymoon last September. We went on a cruise to Montego Bay, Jamaica, Grand Cayman, and Cozumel, Mexico. We went with our friend Jess and her mother to cut the cost of the trip. We went snorkeling in Jamaica, as well as Grand Cayman and Cozumel. In Grand Cayman we snorkeled at a shipwreck and at the reef which was so close you could touch it. We didn't because you aren't supposed to do that. In Jamaica we also visited Margaritaville and this time managed to have some food there. In Cozumel we also did rock wall climbing and zip lines. I have posted video of our time at Cozumel on my YouTube as well. We did Karaoke on the ship and watched a teaching of the thriller dance in addition to just enjoying our vacation.
We have had a great year and couldn't be happier. I invite you all to check out my YouTube to see videos of our time on our cruise as well as our wedding. My YouTube is augusthoney10. I will post pictures from the ceremony and reception as soon as possible.
