Laurie and Alfonse's Wedding

Paul's sister Laurie got married in June. The event was magically perfect. Highlights:

• Laurie's new husband stunned us all by naming all 39 Bankhead siblings, spouses, and children in his remarks during dinner.
• James used the wedding as an opportunity to obtain his first formal suit.
• Miles discovered social dancing. After dancing in the center of a circle of people cheering his name, he told me, "I think I'm a little bit famous here."
• We managed to fit in some waterskiing before and after the wedding.

An hour before go time, Sadie became the "get children ready for the wedding" General.

The children clean up pretty well.

Here are just the nieces and nephews that 
Alfonse married into--and he can name them all!

Miles's uninhibited dancing was a hit.

The cousins needed a break after warding off the paparazzi.
