the return of crazy bride and golfin' groom

no sooner had we unpacked our own suitcases did we get a visit from my sister and brother-in-law (formerly known as crazy bride and golfin' groom). their last visit was in 2003, and it was nothing less than our own nuptials to get them to travel to new england from st. louis. accustomed to the midwest's big giant suvs, big giant houses with big giant garages, we're convinced they get a case of urban claustrophobia, which is why they never come. dabney and i have to do our best to distract them with tasty seafood, delicious pastries, plentiful wine and a lot of karaoke.
