Getting Married Soon.

Well, I know I haven't been on much this past week but my thoughts have not been about reefing much since this past Monday.
Some of you may know and others don't but, my father has been batteling prostate cancer now for the last 2 1/2 years. He began Chemo this past January. It helped him to have a pretty good summer.
The chemo has stopped working and now his PSA in continuing to rise and his WBC and RBCs are dropping along with his weight.
They told him this past sunday that there was nothing more that could be done and have told him he probably has 6 months to live.

Mark and I were going to be planning a wedding just as soon as we finished the work on his house and got it sold but, I got the idea on Tuesday that maybe we could try and plan a smaller wedding when we went to Indiana for the Christmas holidays. I ran the idea by him and he thinks it's a good idea also since I really want my father to be at my wedding and give me away.

Our wedding will be combined with our Christmas party since my whole family will be there anyway. We plan on inviting his 2 brothers who live here in Maryland and his other brother who lives in Columbus Ohio along with his father who lives in Florida. I hope they will be able to make it.

Our wedding date is set for December 30th.

I've been very busy searching on-line for ideas on Christmas Weddings and DIY decorations since we don't have alot of money to spare because of supporting 2 homes.

Just thought some of you might have been wondering why I haven't been posting much, I just have alot on my mind with the news of my father and now trying to plan a wedding 600 miles away.
