As you see, I have changed my profile picture this week. The four delightful teenagers in the photo are from left to right...my soon to be son-in-law---my oldest daughter----my youngest daughter----and her date, which also happens to be the brother of her sister's boyfriend.
Confused? lol In other words...sisters dating brothers.
This was taken at the boys' Spring Awards banquet, which was semi-formal. The girls wore their formals and the boys were all in suits. Sit down dinner, games, and awards, it was a really fun night for all of them.
Do you know anyone who has ever married their sister's brother in law or their brother's sister in law? I think it would be rather fun, and certainly easy on family dinners at holidays and such. What do you think...agree or disagree?

I know I have, just give me a minute or two. Possibly my great aunts married brothers. I know my younger sister's in-laws had this happen, maybe more than once. It resulted in several "double cousins". I think this was very common when we were a more rural country, and there were fewer mates to choose from. I am rambling. I believe I know some young people here in town who did. Funny, the younger sister married the older brother, and vice versa. It could ease some family politics at holidays, I am sure. It looks like a very happy occasion.

We have already started joining them for holiday's. Specifically Easter and Mother's Day. They hold big get togethers with all of their family, inlaws, cousins, friends. I think Easter there were about 40 people there. It was fun, lots of kids hunting eggs, lots of good food and great fellowship.

That's cool. My mother in law and her sister are married to first cousins. That's as close as we have as far as I know.
