| Cam and Josiah's wedding celebration - 09/06/2024 Surprise ! It was actually their 1st wedding anniversary (What?!?!) They quickly and quietly married on 09/06/2023, before Josiah headed to basic training. They've been planning this big family wedding celebration for a year :) Our whole family, minus Tagg and Grandma and Grandpa D. were able to travel down to support them. We rented a big Air BnB with a pool, and boy did we have a great time.
