Uncle Joe gets hitched!

Joe and Abby were married on December 28th at the beautiful Detroit Yacht Club. Henry was the ring bearer, and Gus was the best man. Alex and Chris were groomsmen, and Alex's girls, Ella and Mila, were flower girls. We rehearsed the night before the wedding. Chris' boy, George, just turned 2, and he didn't have an official roll in the wedding, so he protested by lying on the ground. John found this hilarious.

All the rehearsing paid off because Henry put on a perfect performance. Gus gave a thoughtful and kind toast to the bride and groom. And John gave Daddy an astounding round of applause. We sent the kids home with Papa and Mimi after dinner so we could enjoy the rest of the reception. I'm proud to say that even at 8 months pregnant, I danced until the lights came on. And that included 2 rounds of Greek dancing that nearly had me out of breath (Opa!). Congratulations to Uncle Joe and Aunt Abby!
