Daily 5 - Day 276

I think today's list is going to be wedding themed.  Mostly because, well, my baby brother got married today, and provided me with the sister I spent years asking my parents for.

Today's Daily 5:
  1. Watching T.'s face as L walked up the aisle
  2. T's face as he was looking at L and making her vows.  I was standing at the perfect angle to see this, and it totally wrecked my resolve not to cry at the wedding.  One look at that face and I was a goner.
  3. So much laughter
  4. The divine providence of the photographer's assistant having sunscreen with her.  I totally forgot to even think of that, and it was a really sunny day and my dress left a lot of skin exposed to the elements.  I did still burn, but not nearly as badly as I would have without sunscreen.
  5. J's speech at the reception.
  6. lots of hugs
  7. new friends
  8. a beautiful sunny day that came off well
  9. really good food
  10. I can now officially say that I have a sister-in-law!

Hooray for sisters! I tried asking my parents for one (or two or three) for years also...also to no avail. And I don't get the feeling my brother will help by adding one to the family any time soon. Ha ha.

Glad someone got one sooner than I will! :-) Happy gaining a sister day!

And glad, despite all the craziness this weekend in your world, that it was good craziness!

I think your brother and my middle brother probably share some things in common :) I don't think I'll be getting any more sisters anytime soon either!

And yes, it was a good crazy for a change!
