This past Sunday I cleaned up the house and Reed mowed the lawn. We dropped North off at a friend's house then headed to the beach.
....to get married!
Just the officiant and a photographer was to be present. We walked down to the beach and found a location under a beautiful cliff near the water. A friend of Reed's, Jenny G. looked for the best lighting for the pictures as the rest of us moved into place.
The rings
Although family and friends have been a part of the development of our relationship, it was important to us that our marriage ceremony be a private expression of our promises. Reed had talked with my dad a few weeks ago, but no one else was in the know. However, my cousin called on Saturday to say she was in town for a graduation and "what was I doing on Sunday?" I had to invite her!
Reed and I have been a couple for seven years. We have worked hard in the building of our relationship and have overcome differences in personality and upbringing. Through the many experiences we have shared together, we have brought common ground and joy into our lives. Here's to many more years of shared happiness!
