I'm off to Houston today. It's hard for me to belive, but my "baby" brother is finally getting himself hitched on Saturday. I'm going down to stand up in the wedding -- and to make sure it happens. I figure someone has to make sure the bride knows the "no give backs" rule!
Actually, we're all very excited for Joe. As brothers go, I got a pretty good one and he's picked a pretty special person to be his wife. I will be wearing this (you can click on the picture to get a closer view):
Since I will be getting on the airplane with a desire to knit, I spent some time looking up the official list of allowed and prohibited items. In case anyone else needs it, you can get to that information from here:
Transportation Security Administration Permitted & Prohibited Items
A family member also let me in on a great little travelling secret -- carry a FedEx envelope and pre-addressed form (or comparable stuff from another mail carrier) with you when you travel by air. That way, if you have anything valuable to you that they won't let through the security check point, you can just pop it in the envelope and find the nearest FedEx box. Defintely better than losing something precious to the security screeners!
I'll be back Sunday night. Have a great week everyone!

This is really weird, but I am going west for a wedding on Saturday and was about to google and print another copy of items allowed (or not) on planes (right after blog surfing). My last trip a month ago, I carried the list with my knitting (along with the Fed Ex envelope trick). Happy knitting en route!
Sexy dress !
Have a great time.
Best wishes to the bride and groom.
What a great dress! Where did you find it? (I can never find dresses that I like.) Hope you have a wonderful trip!
Have fun! Oh yeah. The bride is stuck with your brother for life. "No give back" indeed! :)
