Andrea Zedeck's Wedding, March 2004

Vanessa and I went to Marcellus, Michigan in March of 2004 for my cousin Andrea Zedeck's wedding. It was a special occasion because it was the first time my mom's family has been together in over 10 years (since my grandparents, and later she and my uncle Don moved to North/South Dakota). Sadly my mom and Don couldn't make it, but we got to catch up with most of the family and had a great time.

Again. Me and dad. He's had that crazy moustache for quite a few years now. Vanessa loves it. I wasn't a huge fan at first but now I'm used to it and I suppose it works for him. The Butera children, John, Angela and Tony. 3 fine cousins from Chicago, always a treat to see them.
