And More.....

After I got back from California we had to leave for Seattle, and I mean right after. I got back on a Wednesday and we left the next day! We rented a condo in Seattle for Manly, Myself, the 3 boys, a girlfriend and my parents. Did I mention it was a 2 bedroom condo? It was "cozy" LOL We were all there for my Eaglets wedding; yep, my oldest boy tied the knot. It was a great time, with all the sides of the family in town and lots of fun.

We started with a big multi-family BBQ at the kids house, it was so fun with all the people and their dog Yuri was holding court on the deck. They have a great house where you see the sound out one window and the Space Needle out the other side. It's huge and very funky and very Them! Eaglet has and office and the new Eaglet's wife has a painting studio. They love it and it was fun for all the people to see it and love it too. We spent a week up there and had an absolute blast!

But the real reason we were all there.......the wedding. It was a beautiful event and went as we all hoped. A good time was had by all and had a lot of things that were tailored made to them. For one thing, all the guys wore Vans tennis shoes, and purple or green ones at that. Then they all wore aviator sun glasses. Middle son even performed the ceremony! Then besides the cake we had a candy buffet and the catered meal was breakfast for dinner. Besides the usual dances, we had a parent boogie and a father/son dance that made everyone laugh. The two of them were gorgeous but of course.......I Cried!

It was so wonderful and we are so lucky that we absolutely love her and are thrilled she's in our family. We also love her family and they have the greatest friends, we feel blessed by them all.

I also got to have all my kids around and that is a very special thing. With all the boys spread over 3 states, and getting older with careers and families, it's going to become all the more rare.

And, aren't they a handsome bunch?
