I'm Married!

So, I just wanted to take a second and blow my own horn. I'm catching up on reading today as I've been gone the past couple weeks getting married and honeymooning.

Pictures of me (just trying to look presentable) and my much more beautiful bride are here:

These photos are actually post-honeymoon as we didn't get anything the day of because the rain was so hard. The new wife was NOT happy about her perfect day being re-planned 45 minutes prior to the start, but in the end we are married and all is well.

Ahh, actually they are Infantry Blue. Probably a bit washed out in the photos.

Congratulations and felicitations!

Infantry blue (whatever you say) socks and bunny-ear kissing, does this lovely lass know what she has gotten herself into? You, on the other hand, are one lucky guy!
May the happiness of your wedding day remain and grow forever.

Congrats.

But I made the mistake of opening the pics just as my girfriend came in the room.

She keeps dropping "hints" now that college is over.
