I married an only child

Clarification: I married the only child not married in a family of 9 kids.  And I'm the 9th in a family of 11 kids.

Let's crunch the numbers:
J's family:
1 mom
1 dad
8 sibs
8 in-law
34 nieces and nephews (2 on the way)

M's family:
1 mom
1 dad
10 sibs
8 in-laws
29 nieces and nephews

= 101 (and counting)

That's a lot of birthdays, anniversaries, future graduations and weddings to remember.

Oh, and 1 potentially chaotic Portland Wedding for us.

My friend joked before our wedding that her present to me would be a t-shirt that said-
"I should have married an only child."

We survived the wedding :) And more importantly we survived the 6 chaotic weeks post wedding. More on that to come.
