The wedding took place in Medford, OR. Nate's best man is his friend Zac. They were friends from the diaper age. Zac's mom babysat Nate when Nate was 2 mo. old. The "Maid of Honor" was Amanda's sister, Cherie. It was a civil wedding and the judge was very accomodating. We had dinner in an Italian restaraunt afterwards and did some of the traditional things. Amanda's step mom brought little bells for everyone and everytime someone rang one, the couples had to kiss. Amanda's Aunt made the wedding cake. Her first attempt and did a beautiful job. It seems that our families will get along well.
Nate's Sister Emily and Brother Jeff both were able to make it. Kerri couldn't, she is in so. CA and it's too far with too short of notice.
They expect to move to Paradise, CA in April. Amanda's grandparents are there and will help them get settled.
I met one of Nate's firefighting buddies. He told me that Nate is such a good firefighter with lots of great skills. I know our son is in with all fours when he has a passion for something.
Well, this was a bright moment for Gary and I in our rather mundane life. We had a wonderful time raising our little boy and now he has given us a sweet little daughter. My gift to her is a husband that truly will cherish her. I guess I need to stop, getting too sappy.

All I can say is wish I could have been there!
I wish so, too, but, they are having a nice reception sometime and then I get to invite everyone.
