As previously posted,
my brother got married on September 3rd, 2011.
It was a beautiful wedding and the reception was rockin'.
My brother is 3 years younger than me,
a Lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps,
hilarious,
an amazing uncle,
one of the best friends I've ever had,
and a very lucky officer and a gentleman
(get it - I think I'm funny, most others disagree)
to be married to his beautiful wife, Alyssa.
We were so happy to be there to celebrate their day with them, and brought our own special kind of joy in the form of our daughter who co-served as a flower girl.
She has a joy for life.
She brought her bouquet with her to preschool last week for show-and-tell. She told everyone that she married "her Scottie" and that she was a princess just like "her Alyssa"
Because Scott is a Marine, there is a special tradition of welcoming the bride - a "kiss" - into the USMC. ouch.
She took that one like a champ.
The reception was gorgeous - seriously could have been in the pottery barn catalog (which is a high compliment - I am obsessed with the pottery barn catalog - like OBSESSED).
these were special tables for the Marines in attendance. Who, btw, can party. for real.
so exciting!
sorry for the blur - but even out of focus, they are lovely.
the boy can dance
you can't tell, but they cut the wedding cake with his Marine sword. Awesome.
Paul remarked that he wished he had a legitimate reason to carry a sword.
Amazing dance - everyone was ready to party and OMG - we did!
siblings. love.
my family rocks
also amazing - my dancing skills.
That's right.
Don't be jealous.
And yeah, I did teach them how.
Me and the bride.
That's how I roll.
