On August 28th, Daddy Jim and I shared our wedding vows with one another with our church community present. You, Madeline & Daniel were standing right next to us. Oma & Opa came from Minnesota, Amy & Lizzy came from Seattle, and Grandma Judy and Judi J came from Ohio. We were surrounded by many people who love us all so very much! Toni, who works with Daddy Jim, made many yummy cupcakes.

The whole day was as beautiful as it was because of Kate. She was my dear friend through all of the arrangements and through the whole weekend. She empathized with me when others had no idea. She was joyful and peaceful and beautiful and selfless. We are so blessed to have her as a honorary member of our family. We joke that the wedding was actually Kate’s and mine. 🙂

Here are some pictures to remember the day:
