What better way to (finally!) start the blog than with our wedding?
We were married on Friday, October 2, 2009, in Virginia, Minnesota. We had a small private ceremony with our immediate families. We wrote the ceremony and vows to make it more personal and meaningful. Tyler's nephew and godson Peyton, was the ring bearer, Lisa's sister Kristin was the Maid of Honor, and Tyler's dad Ralph was the Best Man. We had a Unity Sand and Truce Bell ceremony in the wedding also. After we got hitched, we celebrated with a family dinner at Giant's Ridge.
On Saturday we partied at Goodfella's Bar and Grill in Eveleth, had delicious food, and danced to the music of The Urban Myth Band. We had a great group of supportive friends and family with us! We ate homemade cookies (by Lisa) and had a soft-serve ice cream machine for sundaes! We danced our first dance as husband and wife to Keith Urban's "Only You Can Love Me This Way." Tyler surprised everyone by rapping to "Rapper's Delight" with the band. You can watch him here:
Sunday wasn't quite a day of rest, because we had about 22 of our family members over for lunch to catch up, since we had relatives in town from California and Washington! They got to see our new house for the first time and spend some quality time together after a busy weekend.
Monday we headed to the dome for the Vikings vs. Packers game! Brett Favre made history and we had a great time on our "honeymoon" (We will be vacationing in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico in February).
