Our pretty cake...it was so good too!!






We were very nice to each other except a little on the nose!!!
We asked Nathan to try one of the palm trees to see if they were eatable...and they were, they were white chocolate!!! Yummy
So this was our very first dance as husband & wife. The dinner singer Gail Swanson wanted to sign us our first song! Since this wasn't planned or expected or anything it made it even more special. She sang us her song Half a Heart that she originally did with Willie Nelson! It is a very beautiful song and it was perfect for our first dance as Husband & Wife! Gail also gave us a copy of her CD so we would have this song forever!!! Thank you Gail!!!

When Dave was younger he bet his dad $100 he would never get married because the first girl he asked out turned him down so he was very upset!!! Well, since he lost that bet he was paying off his bet to his dad!!!
