We have a date

Thanks to mom and dad Impett for inspiring this idea and to my sister for supporting it Damian and I ORIGINALLY planned on renewing our vows and celebrating our 11th anniversary in beautiful sunny Hawaii and although we plan to go it won't be for that. Embedded in my mind was the image of Mom and Dad Impett and Shawn their faces falling when they wanted to celebrate with us and they realized they wouldn't be able to afford to join us. That got me thinking about what is important yes going to Hawaii would be extremely romantic but a union should be something to celebrate with our loved ones. We have decided June 25th 2011 we are going to have a vow renewal ceremony in the Spokane area I have a few ideas of places so I need to make some phone calls. We are thinking a Yokes 1/4 sheet cake because it will just be a few of our closest friends and relatives, a dear friend is taking pictures and we will celebrate the night with dancing and music. We are really excited about this we fought really hard to make it especially since we ALMOST didn't we came within a few short days of filing for divorce once that had been done we would have been finished. We have done everything in our power since to remember and celebrate each other and our love for each other. We want our loved ones to share this with us and celebrate our anniversary with us. I've got some stuff to do especially since June is wedding season anyway but what we have planned is extremely simple, low key and doable. A rented suit, nice outfit, simple ceremony that reaffirms our love and life together, a grocery store cake, friend to take the pictures and friends and family to celebrate with. We will probably get a DJ though since we are planning it for outside and they are experienced enough to know what they are doing.
