Do they always end up being a 'beautiful service'? The visitation and funeral mass were well done (perfect and touching speeches by Dan and Tom), very special (the priest was great!) and yes, it was a beautiful service. Well done on the final touches, Will-O. Well done, indeed.
I do enjoy the O'Neill cousins!!
Worst Part of the Day-
My kids were kind of a handful this fine, long day. A nanny would have been key. Scarlet was quite sassy in church and Liam was channeling his grandfather's spirit as he danced like a shaman in the church aisles for all to see (that he doesn't go to church.)
Also, hard to run through the drive-thru to feed your starving kids when you are leading a funeral procession. We left the hotel at 10:30am looking snazzy and arrived back 8 hours later (visitation, mass, burial) for the wake looking frazzled--this equals some hungry, crabby kidlets.
Fun With Older Folks:
When Scarlet was introduced to her Great Uncle John (who looks and sounds eerily like Grandpa Bill), she turned pale and whispered to me, "That's not my uncle, that's the ghost of Grandpa Bill!"
