Festivities

Today the festivities begin. My nephew will be getting married Saturday and the rehearsal dinner is tonight. Rehearsal dinners have become a part of the wedding celebration, even though most people no longer rehearse. It has become a pre-gathering of the closest people to the bride and groom. It sets the happy tone for the upcoming party. The out of town guests are slowly trickling in. The last minute plans are being finished. All loose ends are being tied up. I can hardly wait until Saturday.
