Trailer Hitched

OK, the title is stretching it a bit...but they did meet while Charles was living in a travel trailer. AND we first met Aubrey in his trailer when we came to visit. Anyway--they are MARRIED!! The wedding was lovely but not without its interesting points.

The Best Man was Jeffrey Burkholder, Charles's cousin on his mother's side. Problem is, he is currently a resident of Kenya in Southern Africa. He has just finished up his second tour in the Peace Corps. He couldn't get back for the wedding, and Charles didn't want anyone else (I agree, btw). So it was decided to put a large portrait of him on a stand beside the groom and at the reception. He also videoed the "Best Man Toast". Problem arises because said portrait never got done. So 2 hours before the wedding, we gotta get one made pronto. I found an online picture of him in a tux at his brother's wedding last year. We send that one to Walmart for printing and a frame and- Hey Presto!- portrait done.

My sister, Connie got turned around bringing our mother to the wedding. She ended up on the opposite side of Denton. She rolled in 3 big minutes before the Bridal Walk began. Whew! The ring bearer, Aubrey's nephew, didn't want to be there or to walk down the aisle with the ring. It got done and his refusal was kinda cute. On the other hand, the flower girl, Laura (Charles's 2nd cousin by Tracy) was lovely and gave a wonderful performance. The wedding was lovely...the wedding couple were amazingly beautiful/handsome...the location just right. Still waiting on pictures, but when they come...

One Month and Counting!

On February 17th at 6:00PM in Denton, Texas USA at the Wildwood Inn, Charles Matthias Lamb II and Aubrey Jean Barrus (aka Bellotte) will join the world of married bliss. There will be plenty of pictures later. I'll also post a small bio of each of them. But for now, we just start a new thread on the blog.

Wedding Bells II

Here we are in beautiful Spring, Texas USA waiting to go to St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church for a wonderful wedding. I will be the videographer mainly so that Gramma Fling will be able to see the wedding as her health will not allow her to attend. I will also be posting the wedding on UStream later. Gotta go now!

Wedding Bells

Going this weekend to Magnolia, Texas to the wedding of my wife's nephew, David, to the daughter of her best friend growing up, Mary. David and Mary will seal the deal this Saturday, then they'll head back to Rochester, Minnesota where he is working on his residency as a Nuerologist at the Mayo Clinic. (Poor idiot child!) Good times will be had by all.
