The deed is done. Julie and I are married! The wedding went even better than I could have ever imagined. The part that affected me the most was when Julie and I served communion to our 250-some attendees. To look into the face of every person as they received the elements...wow, it was incredible! The reception was short but really nice. The food and cake were very tasty and we managed to start one of the tables on fire. hehe From the reception we headed to a bed and breakfast inn about 45 minutes away. That place was AWESOME. Breakfast was brought to us two days in a row and it was beyond delicious. The weather really cooperated, too. We headedd to our new home together on Sunday and then went to Chicago for the day on Monday. Most of our time was spent at the Shedd Aquarium and then "our restaurant," Pazzo's. Tuesday we spent hanging around just relaxing and then Julie headed back to teach on Wednesday. I've been doing TONS around the house trying to "marriage-ify" everything. Our apt., finances, insurance, etc. I love it. It's been a challenge but that's to be expected. Two lives coming together isn't the easiest thing to do. :-)

Well, I have to get back to work. It's date night and I need to get things done. :-)
