Post-Wedding Post: Rehearsal thru Ceremony

The weekend of our wedding began with Stella's arrival from Panama on Thursday. Stella and Kimberly have been friends since there time together at Purdue more than a decade ago. Kimberly and Stella spent most of the day finding shoes to go with Stella's dress for the wedding and taking care of last minute preparations for the favors. That day also saw the arrival of Dr. L.

I could not have done so nearly as successfully without the support and vigilance of the man I love.
