T - 4 Days and Counting

The EVENT is almost here. We have about 80% of the punch list accomplished and more things seem to crop up with every day. More people tell me that they are coming. I am honored and thrilled for my son and his intended. It speaks volumes that they would drive that far to come.

Sue, my bride, is spending every free moment making Swedish Love Knots for the rehearsal dinner. I have been trying to send pictures for this thing they are putting together. I guess there must be ohh, 200 pictures that we have scanned and e-mailed off to them. The I included is my favorite.

Strip everything else away and this is an amazing event. Leave off the decorations and dresses and clothes for the guys, the dinner, the reception, the 8 attendants (yes 8 of them, on each side), what you have is two people who come from hundreds of miles a part who find each other and decide that they want to create a family together. That they have what it take to withstand all that life will bring their way. Keep your eye on that and this event is indeed a miracle.
