Three down, one to go.....

Married off the Second Son in sunny Southern California Saturday; lovery event, zero drama from the ex and her family, and got to spend some quality time with my brother and Darling Wife's cousin and his partner.

First photo (above) has Second Son and his bride; also got two of my four grandkids (ring bearer and flower girl) and my wholly estranged daughter (who was the wedding photographer - plenty of opportunity for drama, but we all managed to act like adults!).

Also got some beach time in with Darling Wife, Kidlet (and his fiancee - they're getting hitched in May)......


And my far too seldom seen Big Brother:



Cousin Julian (Ma's cousin) and his partner Rob:


And, since this has now officially turned into an obnoxiously photo-laden post, why not: the pre-wedding impromptu dinner:

Congratulations! Tell your wife I like her taste in hats, I have two like that from my trips to France.

Nothing like a wedding to bring everyone together. Congrats.

I've not been to one on the beach yet. Sounds fun!

Gongrats JIm! Sometimes things just work out. Lovely location for wedding. Now, where did you two get the Panama hats? (I could rellly use one for summer)

Ebay.

And looking back at the pictures, I realize that every shirt and each pair of long pants I'm wearing were also Ebay grabs. As was Darling Wife's sparkly dress.

Big fans of paying ten cents on the dollar (tops!) for new or like new clothes. Example: that Tommy Bahama silk shirt was new, with tags. $90 - $110 new; I got it for $8 shipped.
