well I'm really happy I came home for my cousin John's wedding, it was a big surprise for him and he couldn't get over that I came all this way just to be home for his wedding, besides getting married I really made his day, his wife Heather told me at the reception that I was all he talked about in the car after the ceromony (I knew it would mean a lot to him if I came but I didn't think it would be that big, but then again my brother and I were the only cousins to show up)- which is the complete truth if it had been any other cousin I wouldn't have botherd. But he and I have always been close,he's only 2 months older than me so we spent a lot of time together as kids, and as we've gotten older- unlike a lot of the other cousins who have lost contact and gone off in their own lives John an I have always tried to keep track of each other.
I loved the ceromony it was short, sweet, and very preety outside at this gazebo in Indiana. I about cried watching my little cousin John marry this very beautiful and wonderful young woman I could hardly stand to think how fast we've all grown up and changed. At this point I'm the last of the dozen or so cousins not to be married or at least settled down and thats a little strange, so all the questions focused on when I was going to take that step esspecially after I told everyone where and with who I was living for the last month- and where I am returning to.
I loved being there for my cousin and wouldn't have missed it for the world.
