Congrats Nate and Jaclyn!!

This past weekend our extended family grew in number by one. Our cousin, Jaclyn, got married in a beautiful ceremony in front of her family and friends. Though I did not get a chance to meet her new husband, Nate, I am glad to welcome him to the family and also welcome him to an exclusive group... The Young Non-Toulouse Toulouse Men. :-) We are the men that have married into the second generation of the Toulouse family.

There were just two of us, my brother-in-law and myself. Nate now brings our number to three. We will be adding another member in January when our other cousin gets married. Hmm... If our other cousin gets married soon we can have enough for a basketball team. I'm seeing a Toulouse vs. Non-Toulouse men's basketball game as and added event to the Toulouse Christmas gathering in the future...

Sorry, got a little sidetracked there... This is supposed to be about the wedding, haha.

It was really a beautiful wedding and I was glad to be there. It reminded me a lot of my wedding day, when I was so happy to be joining my life with Cara's. I could tell by the look in Nate's eyes when he saw Jaclyn coming don the aisle that he was feeling the same way. Unfortunately, I have to report that Nate did not break down and bawl like I did. That means that the title of "Most Emotional Groom Ever" is still mine for at least a little while longer, and the Toulouse men made sure I knew it, haha.

Anyway, I just want to say congratulations to Jaclyn and Nate. I wish you the best and Cara and I are here for you guys if you need anything. You both just started what will be the most exciting and thrilling journey you could ever imagine.
