Yesterday, Part 2

So yeah, after coming back from the cemetery, I spent some time at sister's house. Talked to her about some stuff, then went to get a card and gift for the wedding. (I'll admit, I buy presents the same day, not just in this case but in general.) I went back to mom's house to get dressed and made up, then I was on my way. The wedding was a traditional hispanic wedding, with the laso and arras, done mostly in Spanish. Everything was beautiful! The only bad thing was the children playing with fire! (They had taken a bunch of balloons off the wall, and were using a candle to separate them so they could pass them around.) I have to say, Henoc and Angelica both looked stunning, and very happy. I was really proud of Henoc, like I would be if he were my brother. I do feel that way about him and David sometimes. =) I was happy (a little surprised) that Angelica remembered me, we've only met at a handful of parties and when she's come by the pool. They both thanked me for coming down for the wedding, and I told them honestly that I wouldn't have missed it. Such a huge part of their lives, when Henoc and the work we do together has been such a huge part of mine... I honestly did ask for the day off work for the wedding, before I knew that my family wanted to get together that day. I've worked with Henoc since 1999, and known him at least a year or two before that when I was a junior guard. Turns out we're all growing up. Our supervisor got married in April 2005, I got married in October, one of our senior guards announced she was pregnant (she's been married a few years) some time in fall, our other senior guard got married in December, another pool manager (who's on payroll but hasn't worked for a while because she got a real job) got engaged in December, then Henoc got married January 13th, 2006. You know, this is the first of a couple of stages... first you look around and see that all of your friends are getting married, then they're all having kids. (Add in all of your friends graduating college and/or getting divorced, the events and what order they're in depends on who your friend are really.) I have pictures of our honeymoon, the work Christmas party, and Henoc's wedding all on a disposable camera that's got like two more pictures on it. As soon as I finish it, I'll post pictures on my Yahoo pictures page.
