Wedding Bells

Before I say anything else let me wish my sister Jennifer a happy birthday!!
Yesterday my mom got married! She went from being Mrs. Erika Feuchter to being Mrs. Erika Couch (much easier to pronounce and spell!). It was a nice small event. Only immediate family was present at the home of the marriage commissioner who performed the ceremony. The wedding itself was quick - it only took 15 minutes. It's what they wanted, so that was nice. I was a little disappointed by the whole ceremony because of its lack of ceremony I guess. All the weddings I have attended previously, even the small ones, had a little more of the pomp to them, but to each his/her own I suppose. After the ceremony we all went to New Westminster for dinner and a wonderful German restaurant. We had lots of fun at dinner and ate a great meal! All in all it was a wonderful evening. Mom and Howie were obviously very happy, which is the most important part. I hope they have many happy years together!
