Wedding day...

Happiness... 

but first... 

It is the wedding day, but in the morning..

What?  does someone load wood in Poulsbo? 

Wearing your Swiss sweatshirt to breakfast

Now we are friends too 

The hour is approaching... 

 Here we come...

This is just a glimpse into the beautiful venue
Hope to gather a few more pictures 

We are ready

This is as close as I got to the fun 

They WERE the fun 

Always time for a hot cup of coffee 

Thank you Trevor.. 

Best server...with a smile 

And little lanterns light the way 

And they lived happily ever after 

I live an exciting life
