September 28, 2008



Mitzvah!

On Sept 14, 2008, cousin Peter Redgrove and his partner, Elliott got married.

Peter's mother was Walter Roy's sister. Walter is Dr Mom's 1st cousin, and this makes Peter my 2nd cousin. Btw, Julie was named after Walter's sister (Peter's mother), who was also named Julie.

Peter is originally from the UK. In 1964 or so, he wanted to come to the US, so Dr Mom and Simon 'sponsored' him in their home to come over. He was Julie's and my first baby-sitter. Peter opened an antique store. Mom says Peter was very popular, but wondered why there weren't any women hanging around :).

I met Elliott when Peter and he came to visit Dr Mom in Lake Placid 3 years ago (2005). Actually, it was the first time I met Peter as well (even though he had met me as an infant). We all got along well, and they are good people.

Julie wanted to get as a gift for them, a Wine Of The Month kinda thing. Dr Mom did not feel comfortable getting alcolhol as a gift, so instead mom decided to get them Fruit Of The Month. Innocent intention, but howlingly funny to all involved. Peter called Dr Mom laughing when he got the gift. A great sense of humor runs in the family!

Peter and Elliott sent some photos of the wedding...
