Twenty years ago yesterday I got the chance to be a part in my father's third wedding. He was marrying a beautiful woman named Vivian, at a horse ranch. Me being almost seventeen and adhd I couldn't wait for all the wedding stuff to be over. After the wedding my sister and I and one other snuck off (drove off with the car) to go get stoned. By the time we got back, throughly baked, everyone was pissed at us...What we didn't know at the time we took off was that we were supposed to be in the wedding pictures directly after the wedding. so, oops we kinda fucked that up. Eventually the pictures got taken and everyone was mullified.
That day we got to go to my fathers final wedding, got to make asses out of ourselves and that night my sister got a five hundred and nineteen dollar speeding ticket. it was all around a good day and I am grateful I got the chance to be a part of it. I miss him dearly, these last eleven years without him have been tough but having memories like these help a bit, just a bit........

Memories keep us alive. Touching post, my friend.
You have a chance to make memories for your kids now.
...it's never too late.
You'll appreciate that you did this when you're older. Family love and dynamics are tricky, but worth the trouble. Love & Blessings! ~Marion
