Lucky timing

Happily, I was able to attend our niece's (G's sister's daughter) wedding this weekend while I was in the west dropping off Miss L at college. I felt a little guilty being the only lucky one to attend from the Boston branch of the family but I was happy to represent; I really do love my in-laws. Speaking of lucky, the happy couple is moving to Hawaii tomorrow. Talk about an extended honeymoon, right?!

I MUST figure out a way to move to Hawaii. MUST.

Does your newlywed niece need a live-in maid? I'd work like three hours a week for them. Yes?

Gorgeous! Lucky you. How are you holding up after the separation? All my one time Beehives are heading out to Provo this week. Makes me ill, as my girl is on the threshold of Beehive and it seems like that just went by in the blink of an eye.
