    1. Thank you! The funny thing is, you say this just as I've been thinking of making some minor changes. I've always felt the heading photo is too large. I appreciate your compliment!

  2. Laura, I love examining old documents, and you certainly provide some nice ones to look at. A New Year's Eve wedding seems to make sense. People are already in a party mood :)
