tara and jon

i knew i liked these two from the very first meeting i had with them.
tara and jon got married, literally, in the middle of a blizzard on march 2, 2007. the interstate was closed from des moines to minnesota to the north and from iowa city to nebraska east-west. many of their guests were unable to attend. and one family--a cousin and her husband who were parents of the flower girl--spent three days getting to des moines from denver. (a normally 10-hour drive). but these two didn't let it get them down for a second. they were warm and gracious and happy to carry on with those who could make it. we had such a great time and fell in love with them and their families. from grandma louise to the before-mentioned flowergirl, every one was a joy to be around.
congratulations. we are positive that you two have an incredible future ahead of you.
