Well, our daughter got married on Friday and it was truly a remarkable experience. The service and reception were both outstanding, with nary a hitch in either (mostly thanks to my wife!).
The hardest part for me was the long walk down the aisle. My daughter was shaking like a leaf and I was also...filled with a variety of different emotions. But, my second son is a great kid and I was honored to pass Heidi's hand to him.
The pics below show Heidi and Chris, my wife and I bustin' a move, and my original son giving an awesome toast. The audience alternated between raucous laughter and full tears...it was very well done and made the old man proud.
During my speech I told this funny:
At your birth the nurse held you up and said, “Oooh, you look just like your daddy”. Unfortunately, I had to quickly point out to the nurse that she was holding Heidi upside down!
But the favorite part of my speech was when I said this:
My best advice to you, Chris, is to remember…You can only be young once, but you can be immature forever.
So...cheers to all of you (isn't cyberspace cool), and enjoy the pictures!
