October 10, 2010 aka 10-10-10

Apparently, it was a popular day for nuptials, so it was especially kind of mother nature to fully cooperate in our neck of the colorful woods. My bil and new sil were married today in a relaxed, yet poignant ceremony and in a beautiful place.

So relaxed, in fact, that my boy never donned a blazer and the nephews and uncles played football after the vows since there was no t.v. on which to watch it.

Like a stone should your love be firm; like a star should your love be constant. Let the powers of the mind guide you in marriage; let the strength of your wills bind you together; let the power of love and desire make you happy, and the strength of your dedication make you inseparable. Be close, but not too close. Have patience and understanding with one another, for storms come, but they will quickly pass. Be free in giving affection and warmth.

The vows were Kahlil Gibranesque to me.

It was nice. We are all tired. Happy life to the new Mr. and Mrs. W. We'll sure never forget their anniversary.
