I just returned from a family wedding. This was from Beverly's side of the family so there were alot of people who were unfamiliar to me. Still, I concluded this weekend that family weddings are a good thing!
*They provide a time for families to come together; we live scattered apart from one another and this provides an opportunity to "catch up" with members of the family we don't get to see very often.
*The insitution of marriage is being diminished by today's pundits so our presence at a wedding affirms its importance to us!
*Weddings provide a format for us to remember the marriage vows we made to each other--however long ago--and to "renew" them in our own minds.
When the next family wedding comes around and you are less than excited about attending, remember the values to be rediscovered!
