  3. Congratulations Jill and Doc! You both look so happy in that photo, and I wish you happiness for many years to come :)

  4. Thanks everyone for the well wishes! We still can’t believe it is all real. Doc’s boss summed it up well: “When I was a child I was not allowed to date Jewish or Catholic girls. Today a Jewish girl and a Catholic girl married each other.”

  5. Congrats, cuties! What a awesome way to celebrate and what a cool story! You’re a part of history! (Herstory?)

  10. Congrats, Jill and Doc! I don’t know you, but that’s such a sweet photo, and you both look so full of joy!
