Last weekend was Igor and Casey's wedding. It was a great time of support and reunion.
Igor was visibly nervous throughout the service. He held his whole body rigid, but his left hand fidgeted with his suit jacket hem. When it was time to put the ring on his finger, both Igor and Casey blanked on which hand was his left! There was an extra spring in his step as he leaped up to light the unity candle at the end, too!
I consider this a good thing. Wedding vows are not to be taken idly and a little nerve jangling seemed appropriate. Igor has always been a man of his word, and he knew what he was getting in to!
After the wedding, everyone gathered at a country club for the reception. I had not seen many of my friends for months, and even then I normally only see them several times a year. John and I had our first real conversation in years!
It was a great day and a great night. There were fancy restrooms, well-wishes to write, and a few of us made a kick-line on the dance floor! Carrie was enamored with the music selection on the piano. She named every song played until the dinner started (there was "Making Whoopie," "Dance With Me Tonight," and "Can You Feel the Love Tonight?" to name the few I remember her mentioning!).
Through it all, Shane loved his time at Nana's. Kathleen and Baby Cole were visiting! They actually came out to the church to congratulate Igor and Casey after the service. Unfortunately, they missed the limo as it rolled away!
Carrie and I wish Igor and Casey a long-life and a healthy marriage!
