The Wedding

The bride
The groom
Jeff, Davene, Josiah, & David
One of the main reasons that we decided to go to California recently was for the wedding of Jeff's oldest brother, Mike, to his bride, Karen. Their wedding was held outdoors, at the Fullerton Arboretum; and even in California, it's a little risky to plan a February wedding outdoors. But God blessed them with a gorgeous day--the weather couldn't have been better! It was warm, even hot in the sun, then cooled down as evening approached--beautiful. As we were driving back to San Diego after the wedding, we started seeing more and more clouds; and the next day, it rained.
On Tuesday, the night before our flight, we stayed with Mike and Karen because they live close to the airport (well, relatively close, in a LA kind of way!), and that made it easier to catch our morning flight. Mike and Karen are going to Hawaii for their honeymoon, but they're not going until the beginning of March, so they graciously let us crash at their house for the night. It was so much fun to see their home and spend some time with them. Mike is so generous and articulate and persuasive (I think that's a characteristic of the Fisher men), and Karen is so warm and welcoming and friendly--a wonderful couple--and we wish them many years of happiness together!!!
