Married man, married man...
Have you ever heard the "Married Man" song from the same named skit on John Boy & Billy's radio talk show? "Married man, married man, drives around in a minivan, has a wife and some kids, now his life's on the skids, heyyyy there, wherever there's a screw up, whenever something blew up, you'll find a married man."
Well, that certainly doesn't apply here........yet anyway. Life is great and God is good! Though we didn't take a honeymoon trip (because of vacation time from work, etc.), we're still technically on our honeymoon and have little time for blogging. We're tasked with merging households, reorganizing closets, deciding which silverware to keep (and, yes, we categorized then aligned according to height and design....I love this girl!), and the honey-do list of projects has barely just begun. Yet, at the urging of several, I'll update my blog. Really so much has happened in the last three weeks that I'd have to write a dissertation to cover it all. Plus, Dad and Kristy's blogs did a fine job summarizing the wedding already.
We felt the wedding ceremony was simple, but elegant. Nothing more or less than we wanted. The cold and rain could've held off, but that's minor for an indoor ceremony. Everyone looked wonderful and meshed well. Golf was enjoyable, as was the mani/pedicures for the
women I hear. The food at Frankie's was superb and the conversation was wonderful. Mandy and I agreed our description of the whole event was "perfect". The hotels worked out well, everyone traveled safely, distant family and friends made the trip, and everyone had smiles on the entire time.
Even the cake turned out perfectly, despite being a last minute purchase. We'd planned on ordering it in advance, but it slipped our minds and the display case at Dean & Deluca's was half empty being New Year's Eve. On top of that, the first five boxes they opened of my preferred cake were damaged during shipping. The final box was "perfect".
The dust has settled a bit, the confetti has been swept up, and the party favors put away. Now we're just enjoying life.

I laughed out loud when I saw the title of this blog! You're a scream. Now beware of your arch nemesis...Divorced Man!
And I have to agree with you about the wedding; "perfect" is the right word. Amanda Faye should be a professional wedding planner! Forget all the flowers and "tablescapes" and dyed-to-match shoes and high bills/high stress...golf and pedicures and good restaurants and FAMILY is way more fun. :-)
(Tell College & Drinking Buddies I said "hey.")
Houston sings the "Married Man" song while being carted around by Kevin in our minivan! :-)
From what I've seen and heard, your wedding was tasteful, enjoyable and one of simple elegance. I SO wish I could have been there! I'm so glad Amanda Faye came with you to the Poconos so I could get to know my new sister. You two seem so happy and so perfect for one another, and I'm very happy for you both. God's richest blessings on your marriage--may you love each other more and more each year and live a long and happy life together in peace, health and prosperity.
