this is the state motto for new hampshire, where we spent my birthday last weekend. we actually went there for a friend's wedding, and my birthday just happened to coincide. brienne is a friend from college who moved to new hampshire after she finished her doctorate in physical therapy. we got to do a few fun activities while we were visiting. on friday before the wedding, we visited mount washington, the tallest peak in new england. here we are about halfway up, with another college friend, michael. well, michael is a college friend to me, but he & chris went to school together since 1st grade!
notice how i added layers of clothing as we went up. the base of the mountain was in the mid-70s that day, while the peak was mid-40s!
there was a gift shop on top of the mountain that was chained down because of the wind. the top wind speed ever recorded was 231mph! in case you were wondering, that's a world record.
on to the wedding- here's brienne & andy, newly married.
and us at the reception, happily married for almost 4 years.
chris liked the getaway car.
we enjoyed some other activities i don't have pictures of- hiking, tubing, and a cook out at the bride & groom's adorable house. and here's a sign you don't see in the south.
all in all, new hampshire was really beautiful. i didn't know much about it before we went, but i can see why they enjoy living there.

You see those signs everywhere up there. We were in NH for a whole week searching for them but never saw even one. NH is a beautiful place. I am glad y'all had fun.
Looks like a fun place!! I've never been to New England. That is so funny that Michael was there!!
