The Name Game

Today John and I went down to the Montgomery County Courthouse and got our marriage license. It was pretty quick but exciting nontheless. I did find it hilarious how many times the woman asked us if we brought 'cash'. YES lady! It was more important then swearing on the Bible.
The part that took the longest was when she rattled off all the things I have to do and people I'll have to contact in order to officially change my last name. I'm definitely a little sad to lose my current one which I believe goes perfectly with my first (hello, Jackie Jacobi) but at the same time have been mentally preparing for the change. And before you ask, I'm not a hyphenator.
I did love ordering our thank you cards and it will be fun to be called a Mrs. I think it makes me sound more adult. And hey, I could have been stuck with something way worse!

That's one of the reasons I kept my name -- I didn't feel like going to all that trouble!

And I'm so glad you're not a hyphenator!
