Our relationship started with a cliche,
Who knew what would happen when we met that day?
"The Love Boat" seemed so silly, so trite,
But I knew I loved her by the end of the night.
Was it the water, the glaciers, the stars?
In moments we went from "yours" and "mine," to "ours."
It only took us a year to propose,
A big screen, a text message, a chocolate and rose.
We gave stuff away to make room for our love,
Then a shower of blessings rained down from above.
We moved in together, a condo for two,
Well, four cuz there's Piper and Bubba LuLu.
Since we already have more than enough,
It made registering for our wedding, well, kind of tough.
We feel lucky to have such a wonderful home,
And honestly, truly, we both love to roam.
So resting by the ocean is what we will do,
Watching sail boats, sea lions, and orcas, too.
We'll go to Portland, Seattle and such,
Enjoying the people and activities so much.
Should you decide you love us enough,
Please, we beg you, don't give us more stuff.
We've registered for our honeymoon so you can be a part,
Of a fabulous trip we will cherish in our heart!
We hope you forgive us for this corny rhyme,
Come to our wedding and have a GREAT time!
Thank you for all your love and support.
Aren't you grateful we stopped this rhyme short?
We're going to Road trip through the scenic Pacific Northwest!
Flying into Portland, we spend one Romantic night in the big city and one Fabulous night in a hotel on a pier in the Columbia River before driving South along the beautiful Oregon Coast. Most of the coast there is public land, so it's unspoiled by flashy tourist hotels. Just sea-stacks, sand, and ocean.
Along the way we'll see the sea lion caves, go sailing, eat fresh seafood, hit the state park hiking trails, and stay in quaint little B & B's.
Then back to Portland for a few days, so we can get a sense of the city: Leslie hasn't spent much time in Portland, and Tasha's always wanted to go back. We'll visit the farmer's market for fresh food, drink tasty coffee, hit a couple of breweries, and check out the scene.
Onward to the Emerald Jewel of the northwest, Seattle. Loads of culture and fun to be had while staying in the heart of the city in a cute little B & B. Seattle is another great city, so we'll check out the nightlife as well as the museums, theater, and touristy attractions. And more tasty coffee, of course, in the city where the craze began.
Then we're off for home! The pets will miss us while we're gone, but we'll have the memories and the photos for a lifetime! And of course we'll be posting our Honeymoon photos on the web for you to see.
Thank you all for your love and support!
