Emma's Wedding: Miscellaneous Photos

After the reception we all lit sparklers to wave at Emma and Sean. Very Day of the Dead.
Did I mention they had a chocolate fountain at the reception? That was possibly my favorite part of the event.

Emma's Wedding: More Actors

More pictures from the wedding. I was very happy to see Aunt Sue! She was the first female General Editor of the Birmingham News and the first female president of the Birmingham Press Club. In fact, she was the first female lots of things. She broke a lot of ground for us and I'm trying to get her to publish her autobiography.
For some reason my pictures of Emma just don't do her justice. But you can tell that her hair was fabulous!

Emma's Wedding: The Actors

These aren't all of the people involved in the wedding, so I'll have to make another post. But that's Sarah in the orange bridesmaid dress (my other niece). And that's Sean the groom looking happy/frightened in the tux.

Emma's Wedding: The Venue

My favorite niece named Emma (I have two nieces and I love them both equally so they're both my favorite, really) got married. She told me it was just so they could get a Roomba. They had the ceremony here at the Bare Hands Gallery in Birmingham. It was pretty cool. I really liked the murder of crows floating overhead. Mark said that she could think of them as a flotilla if "murder" seemed too pessimistic for a wedding.

Jim in Action

I'm posting this video of Jim singing a bit of a song here from his album of Robert Burns poems. It's called "A Man's a Man" (I think). Anyway, now you can hear why I love this guy so much. Unless the sound quality of my camera is too crappy.

Jim Malcolm, not in a kilt...

Jim played at a restored ancient house in downtown Florence as part of a Celtic Heritage Music program. Sort of. I'm sure I got that wrong. Anyway there were maybe 100 people there and he was his usual fantastic self. Video to follow. I mainly took these pictures to prove that Jim Malcolm is my friend. See. I didn't imagine it. Not all my friends are figments of my imagination. Nancy there is a real friend of mine too!
