One of my brothers got married again and had a big party this weekend. I’m probably going to throw some pictures into a gallery to share with the fam’ and all. Meanwhile, this picture pretty much sums up the immediate branches of the old family tree. The red circle is around the groom. However, I circled it because of our oldest brother’s need to hew to tradition and throw the old two-fingered rabbit ears behind his brother (which is actually preferable to the nose-picking pose the groom has past sported).

The picture was taken by my oldest nephew, a senior in college and son to the “victim” of the prank, the happy groom. (Later the same oldest brother egged on his two sons and another nephew (also son to the groom) suggesting they place their spare walkie talkie in the bathroom, rather than the bushes, for hilarious voice throwing surprises.)

In the second picture below, taken moments later, we all almost look like a regular family not possessed by sarcastic pranksterism.

Oh and the other reason I’m putting these pictures here — in little sister response to the “Oh god, will this end up on the web?” taunting. Since mom’s not around to tell on you anymore, I guess an “Oh yeah, it’ll be on the web,” will have to do.
