The future's so bright (I gotta wear shades)

My sister-in-law sent me these pictures and when I opened the email I could literally hear her laughing at me with me. She made my day because, clearly, I make awesome faces when asked to stare directly at the sun and on the count of 3... smile. You might as well be asking your shih tzu to sort laundry. Not. Gonna. Happen.

The reason I even share these pictures is because they were taken on such an amazing day at such an amazing place with such amazing people. Nothing could have ruined this day, not even my ridiculous attempt to smile into the sun. Because when you witness two people you love and admire kneel together and commit to one another for eternity it fills you with immeasurable amounts of joy. So much, in fact, that your eyes may keep welling with tears. Not to worry, blame it on the sun. It was after all, really bright that afternoon. Congrats Dan and Ali; you inspire me everyday.
