Newlyweds

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank everyone who helped make yesterday the most wonderful day of our lives. Off to Seattle and Victoria!

Eight days away

After going to two weddings in Michigan last weekend, Donna and I arrived in California late Tuesday night. Since then, I've been fully engaged in helping prepare for our wedding. It's been really neat for me to play an active role (albeit a small one) in tending to the remaining details. I especially enjoyed picking up our completed ketubah (traditional Jewish wedding contract) and finally seeing the Hayes Mansion firsthand. This afternoon I met our fantastic wedding coordinators, and got a taste of the kind of planning Donna has been doing all this year from halfway across the world!

I can't believe the big day is only eight days away, and of course we still have much to do. Yet we haven't forgotten our priorities: Donna left a little while ago for her overnight bachelorette party in San Francisco. She was wearing the same outfit she wore on our first date over two years ago. Somehow, it seems fitting!
