A Toast to US...

At our wedding, we had a special person, Rick, give us a super special toast...Here it is...

You might say that it's been a wonderfully Magical Mystery Tour for Matt and Ashley to get here today. But the ups and downs and sideways of The Long and Winding Road have allowed us to all Come Together on this beautiful celebration to share the Love of the Loved. Yesterday This Boy, a real Mother Nature's Son, was mostly interested in fishing or playing the guitar. But I Should Have Known Better, because Ashley came into his life (and there is not truth to the rumor that She Came In Through the Bathroom Window). But To Know Her is to Love Her (Ain't She Sweet). And Matt, it is obvious that She Loves You (yea, yea, yea), and Let It Be remembered that All You Need is Love. And although this a A Day in the Life of Matt and Ashley unlike any other, I've Got a Feeling that Here Comes the Sun to shine on a beautiful future together. And if you two ever need Help in this Helter Skelter world, You Know What to Do; we will always be here for you, even When I'm Sixty-Four.
Well I Don't Want to Spoil the Party, so here's wishing the two of you,
Strawberry Fields Forever.

If you didn't quite get it (don't feel bad...it took a while for some people to get it at the wedding too!), the bold words are Beatle's song titles. The Beatles is one of our favorite bands. A particular band member even gave us our daughters name, (John)Lennon.

Rick, you have no idea how much this toast meant to us. It was by far one of the most memorable hi-lights to our wedding...and we thank you (and Janice and Alicia and James!) for being part of our wedding and our lives! We love you...you guys are the best!
