Oh yeah, almost forgot (not really,) on Saturday, the 23rd I was able to have a wonderful day and married the love of my life. We had a lovely ceremony at Flinn Block Hall located in Downtown Albany (vs Downton Abbey...) Our ceremony was short and sweet (we were close to tears.) We asked our great friend Dean Clarke to perform it for us, and my favorite brother, Ed did double duty as my best man and photographer. I'm looking fwd to thie pics.
Also my favorite sister Liz, brought her friend Mark (former Disney/Pixar artist) to draw caracatures of people at the wedding. Many are posting them on FaceBook as a profile pic. Mark spent quite a bit of time with every one and made many folks super happy. We had one done prior to the ceremony, and he took photos of our wedding party to do one of the group as well. I'm very excited to get this once he's finished.
The turnout exceeded our expectations, and it was great to see many folks from Ki's family, and dear friends whom I haven't seen for quite some time. Many of whom were the Southern Oregon contingent who mean so much to me and others who travelled a long way .Too many to name individually, you all know who you are, thank you!
As to my new hubby, Ki has kept me alive and kicking as through these years, so this was an important step for both of us as we've been together since July 11, 2009. And I have so much love for him, this was the best way we could express it. Now we have a new anniversary!
So happy we could be there!
