Tips on getting married...from a four-year-old

On Monday Emma and Dan looked through our wedding album. Emma was intrigued with the pretty dresses and seeing her family in pictures. After she was done, though, we had this great conversation:

Emma: I'm gonna get married when I'm a grown up.
Me: Really? What are you going to do when you get married?
Emma: Wear a white dress, and the other girls will wear blue dresses. And then you talk to each other.
Me: That's what you do at a wedding. What are you going to do when you're married?
Emma: You play games all the time. But when I get married, I'm going to have cake and ice cream and balloons.
Dan: I like that idea. What else?
Emma: Like some turkey sandwiches, too.
Dan: You heard it: a $100 wedding. I'm holding her to it!

I have a feeling it's not really going to work out like that. Dan's not getting off the hook that easily...
