Got married!

I feel obligated to post about marrying Amy here.  We got married on 10/10/10 at the World Fellowship Center in Albany, NH, and had a great time of it.  The weather and foliage could not have cooperated any better!  I'm so happy to have Amy, and could not be happier to share my life with her.

I'm going to type out the vows we made to each other from memory right now, which we recited during the ceremony:
I take thee to by my beloved, promising to be a loving and faithful partner.  I ask you to be none other than yourself.  I promise to cherish and delight in your spirit and individuality, to face life's challenges with patience, to respect our differences, and nurture our growth.

Here are some photos I like that were taken over the weekend:

Went to the Fryeburg Fair on the Friday night before the wedding with Amy, our friend Myra, Amy's sister Christine, Christine's boyfriend Patrick. Highlight: fried Oreos.
Climbed Mount Chocorua with a group of friends and family on Saturday.  Here's Amy with Leela at the summit!
Amy's cousin Brian surprised everyone by showing up from JAPAN, after making sure we all thought he couldn't make it!  Took this photo at a great party at Amy's mom's house the night before the wedding.

The day of the wedding, Tim, Tyler and I went looking for moose and caught a great sunrise. Tyler's presence at the wedding was a complete surprise, and it was great to have him there.

After we were officially married we went to be alone in the woods, and then had some private photos taken.  (Taken by John Mitchell)

There's the surprise guest!  Great to see my old pal Tyler again, who was there for Amy and I since the beginning back at UNH.

Chocolatey cake my mom made!

Great day, thanks everyone!  (taken by Myra Khan)
There are many, many more great photos out there, and sifting through those that I have is so tough!  If you have any photos from the wedding, please let me know, I'd love to get copies of them (in their original high resolution, of course!).

BRIAN OUT.
