Leaving On Their Honeymoon

After a beautiful ceremony at the church we hosted a reception for a hundred guests on our lawn. Leslie had prepared enough food for probably two hundred — when I opened the refrigerator the next day I met a solid wall of food — and we actually had a dozen bottles of unopened wine.

Special thanks to Barb and Ron and Sue and Tom who helped us to set up and tear down, and to Cheryl and Jolee and Teresa for everything, and to everyone who loaned us canopies at the last minute. We didn't get much rain but it was enough.
