HOPE THIS ONE STICKS...

We went to my Uncle Steve's wedding yesterday. This is his sixth wedding (the last time he can get married in the state of Missouri).

I now have a new Aunt Beverly. She's a sweetheart and I couldn't be happier for them both.

It was the most beautiful day yesterday. The wedding was held at my Uncle Sonny's house on the deck overlooking the lake.

About to say their "I do's"


She's a happy woman, can't you tell? I don't know which photo I like better, this one or the next one. They both show utter happiness.

See?

The happy couple.

UGH!

I apologize for that last post. The pictures couldn't be viewed so I removed them and now the text has gone all wonky.

It's been that kind of a day for me.

I had a meeting at work today and when I walked through the door, I spilled my full soda all over the carpet right in front of everyone.

Like I said, it's been one of those days. That's why I'm going to bed and it's barely 7 pm.
