Joshua and Samantha's Wedding

It was the wrong weekend for my computer to die. Thanks to two lovely women at Apple and my wonderful Dean, it was restored last night so here is your first taste of our beautiful weekend.

To quote the Episcopal Bishop who preached at the royal wedding, 
"Two young people fell in love, and we all showed up."

Waiting for Bride in a lovely grove of trees in Lithia Park, Ashland, Oregon.

Lilly leads the bridesmaids from the trolley. 

Finally the bride and her father emerge, and she was Beautiful!


Amanda, whose last name I can neither pronounce nor spell, was the officiant.
She was amazing.

Literally tying the knot.

"You may kiss your bride."

With great joy, Amanda introduced us to Joshua and Sam,
husband and wife.

As they walked away, we were told to give them the first few minutes
of their marriage alone. We did as she gave us some last minute instructions
about the reception and a final blessing. And then they returned to us and to 
the joyful celebration of family and friends. 
Just as with marriage, there is more to come.
