The wedding

Well we are back, and the wedding went well, with no explosions. Hans seemed rather tense, maybe a little defensive, and not particularly comfortable with the whole ceremony thing. His vows sounded like a lecture or a report. Barb read mom's words for the couple, and she did a great job. I didn't feel like it was appropriate for me to do it, because I knew they would be heart felt words that I would not be able to convey. Loved Kerstin's family and friends. They were so warm and fun.
Had Heather, Meg and Katie all in one place. Plus we had little Henry, and we fell completely in love with him. He is so sweet and responsive. Everyone loved him! Considering how jet lagged they both must have been, both he and Kate did great. It is so hard to have all the girls except Mandy. I miss her so much. We talked to her quickly, but it was almost painful for me, no, it really was painful. She is so far away, that I can't even wrap my mind around it, and doing things, that we may never really know about. I miss you Mandy.
