Despite the church address typo, cancelled catering, and tacky Elvis impersonator acting as D.J., Mat and Aubrey married each other yesterday with bursting hearts and twinkling eyes. Love ruled.

Love can withstand great distractions and inconveniences when the couple only have to look at each other and feel the love flowing.

Thank you, everyone. The snippets are a true challenge. I like the extreme restriction. When I have little time, I should at least try to write another snippet to keep writing every day.
Thank you for the encouragement.
