  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Oh guys you're so beautiful! :hug: Getting all teary here!

I don't have any photos AS YET (hoping I might get a disc of amateur ones in the next few days), but I promise I will send them on asap.

The day went perfectly - nothing that involved me or Brad went wrong. There were some minor dramas at the start, but it didn't involve us, and we didn't know until after the day was over.

The weather was perfect, and everything flowed the way we wanted it to. Thank you so much for your prayers.

We spent the first two days up in a hinterland cabin with a spa and fireplace and basically did NOTHING (which was exactly what we wanted - days of just lying around and having no agendas/schedules). The next 6 days were spent up in the Whitsundays (just outside the Great Barrier Reef) on an island, with everything included. We went to the reef, on a sunset cruise, had a romantic jetty dinner on our own, and went out on a deserted pure white beach which was heaven.

It was exactly what we needed and we came back today exceptionally refreshed.

Honestly, I look at how much effort we put into the wedding day (which wasn't much anyway), and laugh. I knew it beforehand, but it's only afterwards, when I look at how much different marriage is to what I expected (and how our feelings have grown and developed and changed since), and I wonder why so much focus in on the wedding...

It's not about that. The feelings I had for B on that day do not come anywhere NEAR the way I feel for him now. I'd fight for the death for him, and for our marriage, and there is something sacred about this whole joining that I never realised would happen.

Everything is so different, and I'm loving it.
