Good to hear, Hugh.

Our household is running 2 out of 3 (at this point) in successful spouses for our spawn. ;)

That is great, Hugh...you get moments in life that make it right.

Sorry I am going to miss you tomorrow...I nearly flew out just to say howdy :cool:

On a related note, my Son's girlfriend's father called and asked if Jack could trailer his car to be repaired because, "Jack knows this stuff".

So he did this morning.

$3,700 wedding dress
 
Wifey is in NYC with daughter they went to Kleinfelders the store that is featured by a cable show called "Yes to the Dress" $3,700 for the dress, haven't seen the dress yet, but add in veil, shoes, whatever. Daughter and wife are happy, so I don't care. They are planning a wedding somewhere in the British West Indies next April. She's worth every penny of it.

Gentlemen, very cool. You've done well.

Hugh - I would say you got off pretty easy!

Accounting?

Seems like the numbers add up.

Congrats.

She moved to Manhattan with him about six weeks ago without a commitment, I advised against moving into his condo (yes a condo in mid-town Manhattan, not an apartment). I told him I was delighted. I can't believe my little girl is going to get married. SmileWavy

That is just the friggin dress! They want a Caribbean wedding, next April. The good side, is that the Wifey is only leaning towards paying air fare and hotel for four family members and one very close couple who are my daughter's Godparents.

Anyone else who wants to attend will have to pay their own freight. At least that's the plan at the moment, I'm sure it will grow to "well what about these other friends"

Hugh,

Congrats to your daughter! Best wishes for her and your now expanding family!

zarl911 04-04-2012 02:36 PM
and congrats to you and your daughter

Hugh R 04-04-2012 02:37 PM
Definitely in person is better, that is what I did with my wife's Dad, however he lives in NYC. I live in Los Angeles.

You know what they say... marry a girl, marry her family.

I assume there is a nice McDonald's in the British West Indies.

Wedding and reception at McDonald's. What kind of wine goes with Filet o' Fish?

sorry..nothing says, "Congratulations and Good Luck" to the happy couple like airing out your own negative attitude. maybe that is why your marriage worked out so well?

Hugh, ignore that post please..

congrats Hugh..
I'm sure she will follow in her mom's foot-steps..
and keep the steer happy & coming home..

my FIL..James was old school..
and I would have done this..
but we got married after he passed..
but he did inform me at our first meeting..
you hurt her..
I kill you...
I knew & understood he meant it..
that was 30 yrs ago..
I miss him..

Rika
