First came love, then came marriage, then came...

This one's for Melissa who told me I needed to update more often...

Two of our friends who got married about a month and a half before we did came to Austin for the weekend so we got a group together for lunch on Sunday. And of course with the majority of the group being married and some of our friends now having children, the topic of conversation led to marriage, kids, future kids and speculation of kids. Not our's, but everyone else's.

Now that the pokes and jabs are off of Patrick and I getting married, the poking and jabbing of our friends and relatives of their own potential marriages and children are so much fun! We talked about her brother's need for a girl, a "marriage plan" for another brother and friend, how my in-laws threatened to "make their own grandchildren" if they didn't get their own soon (at least that one's on Patrick's sister and brother-in-law, not us.....yet), as well as:

At one end of the table:
"She went home 'cause wasn't feeling well? Hmmmm..."
"Was she drinking last night?"
"I didn't see her with a glass of wine."
To the other end of the table:
"John, do you have any exciting news to share?"
"Exciting news?....... What are you two talking about?"
At the first end of the table:
"Keep me updated on the situation."

Yes, we are very sly. And this is how rumors start.

We just want all of our friends and family to be blessed with children that we get to play with before we have the chance to ruin our own.
