I Thought Our Honeymoon Might Be Ruined!
August 8th, 2011 by     

Shortly after arriving in Atlanta, Georgia for our layover we called the parents to check-in and let them know we were safe on the ground at least for awhile. That’s when my mother-in-law broke the news. Her morning Facebook browsing uncovered that our aunt, uncle and co. would be leaving on the same cruise with us the next day!

I was originally seriously pissed, and here’s why: the family joining us on the honeymoon hadn’t bothered to RSVP in anything close to an official manner and didn’t show up at our wedding… but they were going on our honeymoon!

The In-Laws
June 28th, 2010 by     

Although I don’t entirely agree with the saying, “When you marry the man, you marry the family” I think it’s really nice to “fit in” with my fiancé’s family.

I happened to have two well placed days off that allowed me to help Lilac Dude’s mom prepare for and run a garage/estate sale. I spent those mornings and afternoons with Lilac Dude’s mom and 15-year-old brother, while Lilac Dude was at work.

What was awesome to me was that we are comfortable enough to joke around even to the extent of me putting a 50 cent price tag on my future mother-in-law’s forehead.
