Another cousin...another wedding...

And I think my summer of family weddings is complete! My cousin, Kathleen married her boyfriend of eight years yesterday afternoon! It was a beautiful ceremony an an extremely fun reception! Hey...when there's a mariache band...you know it's going to be a good time. Paolo, who our family calls Paco, and Kat met at Holy Cross where they went to college. He has spent many a Thanksgiving with us and is one of the nicest people in the world. I am so happy for them! Most of his family came from Mexico and Spain to celebrate the nuptuals...and somehow we Irish were able to keep up. The weather could not have been more perfect, and the reception venue was an unbelievable sight!

Kathleen looked GORGEOUS! She was like a model!!

The view...breathtaking.

I'm tired...but that's ok!!

So last night, or early this morning, we picked up my sister Liz and my Aunt and Uncle from the glorious Manch-Vegas airport. Due to storms, their flights were a little delayed-but it worked out fine as they arrived just around the same time. We got back to Maine about 2...went to bed around 3...and my "natural body clock" allowed me to wake up around 7. Awesome. So, I'm beat-but at least it's a big fun weekend to look forward to! Nancy's wedding happens on Saturday-so be on the look out for some fun photo moments! I believe a lot of the family will be here on Sunday for some obligatory Maine lobster - and obligatory Budweiser product as well. I leave for vacation in 8 days...I can't freaking wait! Did I mention I bought an iPod? My cousin, who cannot discuss the new company she is working for online, but let's just say it's named after "the fruit that isn't an orange," guided me through the process very professionally. I ordered it on Sunday, and it arrived via Shanghai this morning. Perfect timing:) I can't wait to load it up with all sorts of "Mo Specific" nonsense. I'm sure you can assume there will be playlist dedicated to the amazing and prolific works of *Nsync. Nice.

If Bobby hadn't have stolen my "Dreamgirls" cd-that would be there too...but he's got a crush on J-Hud...and there was no stopping him. Of course I'm kidding, I'm exhausted and my back is acting up...so I'm sure I'm typing on sheer adreneline boosted by muscle relaxers! Ha!

So here are a few things I need to comment on before weekend festivities ensue:

*Britney...keep your freaking clothes on!

*Paris...I really don't care at all. But just writing that I contradicted myself because apparently I cared enough to write that I don't care. I sicken myself.

*Gilmore Girls....still canceled...and I'm still dwelling.

*Pearl is retiring. She's too cute for words...but she seems to have plenty to say.

*Even with this rumor circulating...I can't support a Fletch prequel. I won't.

*This is my favorite story today. Come on!

*By the way...is "Uncle Jessie" taking a page from the book of little Stephanie and her drug issues (I swear she kept her stash in Mr. Bear!)...or is it really just jetlag? You decide and I'll confer with Danny and Joey. Someone's gonna be in "big trouble, mister!"

That's all. I'm going to get ready for some wedding shopping:)

A wedding Saturday within the month of June...

My cousin Courtney got married yesterday! She's only known the guy for 30 years or something, so everyone is kind of worried that they kind of rushed into it! It's actually a really sweet story, and to keep it short (which I seldom do) their mother's have been friends forever and you can pretty much do the math from there. It was a beautiful ceremony in Charlestown, right by the Constitution. As always, a wedding is a great reason for our family to get together. I haven't seen a lot of them since a certain Thanksgiving a few years ago (not that I "saw" them that day either!).

Some pictures from the evening...
