And now we are in Madrid, Spain...our second honeymoon.

What a week this has been, nothing short of amazing. Yesterday Merry and I renewed our vows at The Casbah where we were wed on May, 22 2008. So many of our friends came to give us their support and to witness the renewal of our wedding vows. We were touched beyond belief..it will take us a week to send out thank you notes to those who came. Thank you everyone..xoxo

Tom J. Katt was the officiating minister who gave our vows. He took a crash course and became licensed so he could. Thank you Tom, you are a great brother. Sophie, Coty and BrandyIII...if it were not for them we could not have done this. Thank you Sophie, Coty and Brandy III.

The ceremony was beautiful.. even IF my wife thought it was an hour later. She had told me she had plenty of time to eat and do a couple things just the half hour before the guests began to arrive at 4:00p.m. Dogster/Catster time and I thought it was cutting it short but figured she knew her ability to do all that in that length of time.

Well time went on and no Merry.. so I thought she was being coy, you know not wanting me to see her wedding gown. Well the next thing I know I am talking to her at 4:30 p.m. and she said she was going into her game to post a new one....well, I thought "Cool as a Cucumber" unlike me with sweaty paws. Then she said Georgie where are you at? I said I am at the Casbah greeting our guests. She said OMD!!!! What are you TALKING about!!!??? I said just that baby...I'm greeting our guests as they come in. She said already?? I said Merry they have been coming in for half hour now.. then Sophie asked if she should begin and I SHOUTED NO!!!! I DON'T HAVE MY WIFE YET!!!! SHE IS LATE!!!!!!

Merry about fainted....she had NOT even put on her dress yet OMD!!! She ran and got dressed all flustered and embarrassed and I told everyone that she forgot the TIME to be there and we all have a great laugh about that, easing my tension.. Poor Merry was mortified but I told her that she again made the wedding memorable. :D I will NEVER forget my wife being LATE to our vow renewal. BOL! I LOVE YOU MERRY!!!!

The rest of the wedding went smoothly and beautifully, then we have a blow out reception after and was lots of fun. Her and I danced to Summer Wine, the first dance from our original wedding. How I loved dancing with her to that.. Thank you Merry for marrying me again. :) xoxo

After the reception we took the limo to the Moroccan airport where we then took our Casbah jet to Spain. We arrived this morning and are at the Hotel Puerto Madrid! What a BEAUTIFUL hotel it is right in the heart of Madrid and from there we will wind our way out thru the country exploring and having fun. We can come back to the hotel when we are tired. I am renting a car today....the taxi's leave MUCH to be desired ........right Merry? :D

I can't wait to see what today holds and each day we are here....one thing I know for sure is it will be wonderful touring Spain with my wife. She is sure to bring lots of flavor to our trip.

Until next time.....Buenos Noches!
