It's far from being cold (I think it's like 60 outside) and the skies are cloudy here, but I couldn't be happier or more in love. We've seen a lot since then and grown more than I ever thought I could, but I wouldn't trade it for anything.
Even back then, I couldn't go anywhere without a camera... here's our engagement night in a nutshell (although I totally forgot about getting a picture at dinner - it was so good!)
After dinner, before walking around the Inn (looking at the famous gingerbread houses)

Just before "the big question" - outside the newly opened spa

"YES!"

Just plain giddy! (it was going on 11pm... on the last day of exams)

Hi! I am a graduate student and I am taking a class on marriage. I am working on my final paper and thought I would see what people are saying about the subject. I have been posting these two quotes on various blogs where the main subject is marriage. i was wondering if i could get your opinion on these quotes:
“The best marriages, like the best lives, were both happy and unhappy. There is even a kind of necessary tension, a certain tautness between partners that gave the marriage strength, like the tautness of a full sail. You went forward on it.” (Anne Morrow Lindbergh)
or
"For many modern social critics, marriage itself is a hypocritical, restricitve, destructive institution. It can be kept up only by falsehood and deceit. Often it is seen as an instrument of the dominant social order to condition people toward servility and a slave mentality." (From Adolf Guggenbuhl-Craig, Marriage Dead or Alive)
Thanks for your help!
