Isaac's best friend Mark married the most darling woman last weekend. We were blessed by the opportunity to travel to Ohio May 20-24th to celebrate with Mark and Anna. I wish I could say this about every wedding I attend, but there is absolutely no doubt that Mark and Anna were stamped by the Lord to be together. We're looking forward to lots of adventures together! :)
Anna has always wanted to be married in her own backyard, which is right across from the Ohio River. The Harvey family poured so much work into making the house and yard an elegant afair for the wedding. Every little detail was covered with the love of family, and it felt like a recreation of "Father of the Bride".

Groom's cake...one side of the plane had their names, and the other side said "Camping or Bust". Mark strung Anna along for weeks saying that he was taking her camping for their honeymoon. Really, he had beautiful accomodations planned in Park City, UT for a week. I can't wait to hear the stories from their trip!
Beautiful wedding cake
Down the hill from Anna's house is William Henry Harrison's tomb. It's a stunning memorial, which I'll post about later, and it overlooks the river, so the wedding party took lots of photos there. Lots of fun!

It's disturbing to admit my husband did have a part in this. Mark's poor car!
