Reception

Victor got good grades as he finished his semester. We had a
fantastic reception. Everyone had ideas about what we should be doing
at the reception (ie cutting the cake, daddy daughter dance, stand in
line) but nobody seems to have actually put much thought into when
we'd be doing any of those activities. Some seem to have imagined us
dancing and cutting cut while simultaneously standing in line greeting
family friends. It was wonderful that so many came. The latter,
standing in line while dancing, we actually tried and some friends
didn't seem to mind greeting us while we danced but others were not
amused. After the reception we helped clean up and packed for our
honeymoon trip to Oregon coast.
Our siblings looked good in their matching ties and dresses.
Sunday we went to church together at Grace Assisted Living.
Victor's dad let us borrow his truck to take a small sailboat to the
Oregon coast for our honeymoon.
We took the boat sailing on a lake and the wind was too strong to get
very far from the dock. When we tried it on the ocean, we had trouble
getting past the breakers. A nice man from Olympia Washington helped
us push the boat into the water. We had fun rowing and sailing the
boat up to the breakers and then the waves tossed us around and filled
the boat with water. We were pushed back into shore by the waves. As
we were pumping the water out on shore, Dave came back with two big
buckets and helped us bail. We tried again and as we hit the breakers
we got tossed around again as we sailed. After a few more minutes of
sailing a big wave hit us and broke the dagger board. It turned out
the board was rotten within its new layer of white paint. Dave helped
us pack up and we took off all done with the excitement. We brought
the boat to Steve and Ruth Bascom's where hopefully it will sell
better than in Meridian Where it has been listed all summer.
We also had fun touring several cheese factories and Janell even found
one that claimed to be French, however very little of its cheese was
actually French varieties. We went to a shipwreck on the beach too.
Friday night we opened and sorted wedding gifts. Seviah was much more
excited for us to open them than we were.
