Ten years ago today, I was standing on the lawn at Madrona Manor here in Healdsburg, surrounded by our family and friends. I was about to marry the woman of my dreams. She was smart, funny, pretty, geeky, brilliant, thoughtful, and kind. I was crazy in love with her.
Best of all, she had said “yes” when I asked her to marry me. We had already been together for years when we got married. We’d gotten a cat. We’d moved to Healdsburg from Los Angeles. We had bought a house, and we were raising a son.
She’s still all of those wonderful things that made me want to spend my life with her. Ten years on, I love her more than ever. It’s been a decade with ups and downs, triumphs and tragedies, joy and sadness.
It’s been a marriage.
Happy Anniversary, Dori. Thank you for the past 10 years. I love you.






Happy anniversary! May there be many more!
For some reason it makes me feel old that my blog has been around longer than you two have been married. Congrats!
Congratulations!
It’s a beautiful wedding, it’s great to marry the woman of my dreams.
