We in this interesting clan of mine are letting fun be our theme this season.

My cousin Lydia’s wedding last weekend, officiated by my dad, was dubbed “traditional untraditional.”



Then there’s this little guy, whom you may have wondered about in an earlier picture. GORT (“Goes On Road Trips,” also a reference to The Day the Earth Stood Still), who actually lives in Seattle, was roped into cheering for the Oregon Ducks last Saturday as they pummeled the Huskies. No wonder poor Gort looks confused.




wow, that cake is something. Is that a bust of Edgar Allen Poe on it? And I love the groom’s tie!
oh dear – the wedding is creeping me out :-) Looks like fun though!
I thought Edgar Allen Poe, too, Jodi, but it says Frankenstein (alongside his bride). Ah, well.
The couple and their party were sweet, Cecily, contrary to appearances. I guess that’s part of the idea. Their challenge, maybe, to the older, more conventional folk was to look beyond outerly stuff. Anyway, that’s one thought from this older, more conventional gal.
