I realize it’s been awhile since I’ve posted. I did a whirlwind tour of six cites last week, and my son’s wedding is this week so I’m short on “posting time.” For those of you who read about my trip to New York, I’m happy to report that I didn’t “decorate” a single taxi cab or airline seat on last week’s trip. I’ll be posting soon about my final acclimation into the ranks of those experiencing empty nest syndrome.
EDIT: I just came back from a meeting with my son and his fiance and the pastor of the church they are getting married at. I’m “joint-officiating” the ceremony with this pastor. He is doing the “liturgical” stuff and I’m doing the homily and the vows, pronouncement, etc. For those of you who know what my favorite movie is (which also happens to be my son’s favorite movie), it’s going to take everything in my power not to start the homily with “MAWAAGGEE”.

Please post wedding pictures. Hang in there, Dad–we hope to hear from you again soon!
Yeah, pictures!! After seeing the cool shot of the two of them at graduation I can imagine what wedding pictures would look like. You still have the four-legged “kids” at home, right?
Stopping by to say hello! Hope all is well with you. When is the big day for your son?
I would almost pay money to watch someone do that homily at a real wedding. I wonder if I can talk one of my girls into it…
august 2007 doesn’t work . . . how about october 2008?
congrats on your son’s big day!
just as long as jordan doesn’t interrupt you with a muttered, “skip to the end”.
I can’t believe he’s getting married! It seems surreal since we’re both in the same age group and I feel light years away from even thinking about marriage. I’m still wondering if I want to take a shower now, or walk down to get my laundry and then shower. It’s a huge delimma.
I hope the wedding goes well. Can’t wait to hear about it later.
I fully expect to hear “And wuv, twue wuv, wiww fowwow you fowewer, and ewer…” I need something to laugh at so I don’t get emotional in the congregation
See you Saturday!
LOL… I love that movie. May we see pictures of Humperdink and Buttercup?
Good Movie!
