I now declare you hombre y mujer

Dear Mom and Dad,

A lot has happened in the week since you left Chile. I got married, for one. His nickname’s Ladrillo, and he’s a baqueano. We were married in the stables the other day after lunch. It was a spur-of-the-moment sort of thing: He asked me, I said yes, and we were hitched three minutes later. I think we’re going to honeymoon at Los Cuernos.

Here are some pics from the ceremony:

Ladrillo stood on a bucket so he could be taller than me, for the ceremony at least

Exchange of rings (Mine was needed back directly after the ceremony for a piece of horse equipment, but that’s ok, right?)

Mishou, the priest. Note the robe.

Cejas, the witness.

Well, that’s it for now.

Love ya, miss ya, mean it!
