Did you go to college? Further?

How many siblings do you have and where are you in the ranking? (Oldest, middle, 10th, youngest, etc...?

Did you have or do you want a big fancy schmancy wedding?

If you could do anything, what would you do?

    I have a doctoral degree that took 7 years post undergrad!

    I have one full sister and am the youngest (but I have various steps and half siblings with whom I didn't grow up)

    I had three people at my wedding; me, my husband, and the dude who married us (all of our family was far away and we just wanted to get it over with...plus I hate pictures!)

    If you could do anything, what would you do?
    I would quit work, keep my babies with me where we currently live (I like it here) and go on vacations whenever I please (and eat lots and lots of food). It seems to me that ideal life would consist of me committing all the deadly sins at the same time...hmmm...

    I went to college for Travel & Tourism, but realized it wasn't for me so I dropped out. I did get a diploma for Nursing Unit Clerk though as a back up.

    I have a sister, I'm the oldest.

    I didn't have a big fancy wedding, but it was big enough. Thinking it over, I think I would have much rather eloped or done something smaller.

    If you could do anything, what would you do?
    Find something that I love that I could do at home that would earn me some money (to keep me busy) and travel whenever I want.

    I did go to college, but didn't finish due to getting pregnant.

    I have 3 brothers and 1 sister. I am the youngest.

    Nope got married at the courthouse.

    I would move from my hometown.

    I've got a BA in French, an MA in Translation and a PGCE/QTS (postgrad certificate in education/qualified teacher status).

    I'm the eldest of 3. I've got a sister who's 2 years younger, and a brother who's 5 years younger. My 3 children have exactly the same age gaps, but mine go boy, girl, girl.

    I got married in a Catholic Church (hubby is catholic) and we had a reception at a nice hotel after, with about 70 guests for the meal, then more for the evening. I wore an expensive, white dress, but I wouldn't say the wedding was fancy, just average for here really, not unlike most of the weddings I've been to. Hubby's cousin got married in a castle.

    I'd move back to where I grew up (York, if you've heard of it?) and I'd stay at home until my youngest starts school. I'd also travel more.
