Did that get your attention???
LOL ya right! NOT!
Well after 15 years of being together we finally made it official and got "the paper". Why? It took me 15 years to decide if he was the one or not. NO hahaha I joke about that all the time with him. It became a joke with us and our friends. It was time and we have always wanted to get married. Life got in the way and we put it off(ok I put it off) and didn't make it a priority. So the years went by as they do.
A few of you have emailed and my brother even joked and said OMG is there a bun in the oven. Really!! No LOL you guys make me smile and laugh. Now that's funny.
When were on the plane coming home for our house hunting trip in Ontario George got all serious on me. He put the ball all in my court. He said it was all on me. No more excuses lets just set a date and a time and get it done :) I would have to say that George had wanted to get married more then me over the years. He would bring it up every so often and I would make some excuse or just change the subject. I was always on the fence about it. Why ruin a good thing I would say. For George though it was that last step in our relationship and he truly wanted it to be official. Now that it is done I'm so happy. I wished we had done it sooner.
So we had to get busy and there was no better place then here in BC. So we got all our ducks in a row. Went to the marriage counselling classes. Found some willing passer bys to witness..lol No there was no hesitation in that choice. We knew it had to Mike and Lily :)
Why the secrecy?? Well George and I both have already been married before and we knew we did not want the big wedding this time around. I know it sounds selfish but we wanted it to just be about us. If we invited one person why not someone else. Then it becomes a "thing" an event.
It was perfect just the way it was. We were already married in the eyes of everyone anyways this just made it official :)
I am very proud to be a Wagner now I was very torn as to whether I was going to take his last name. Being a Bennett has always been a sense of pride for me. My roots were I came from. Then I realized I will always be a Bennett that will never change.
I am very happy to finally be George's wife :)
