Weddings and Lessons Learned
My brother got married this weekend, and I was in his wedding party, so I had a busy weekend. I learned a few things along the way.

1. My little brother (the one that's 15, not the one that got married, but was also in the wedding party) is a little man now. My oldest sister got married when I was 14, and I was in the wedding party, and seeing him in a tux for the first time, with a professional hair style for the first time, reminded me of being the wedding party then. We got some good pics of the three brothers in our rented tuxes, I'll post them when I get the digital copies of them.

2. People love weddings. My brother handed out quite a few wedding invitations, and we had to seat a lot of people. Sure we like to share in the joy of couples as they commit to one another, but a lot of people didn't even talk to the couple over the course of the day, and seemed to still enjoy it all.

3. It's really fun to drive big trucks. For the wedding we rented to Dodge Ram pick-ups. Since my brother isn't 25 or over, and I am, both trucks were under my name, which afforded me the right to drive them a fair bit. I just wished someone had pulled up beside me and asked, "Does that thing have a hemi?" To which I would have responded, "You're about to find out!"

4. I still look really good in a tux (those pics to come as well). I know, everyone does, but hey, it's fun to look good like that, even if it means a $130 rental charge.
