Look at it.

Great paint job.

Dear God, we are thankful today

to be here as a family.

We thank you for this food and the work

you have given us to provide it.

We especially thank you

for bringing Allison into our family.

We pray that you will bless

Matt and Allison and their marriage...

as you have blessed us.

This we humbly ask

in your name. Amen.

- Amen.

- Amen.

Well, here's to

Allison and Matt. Cheers.

The church was built

in 1852. It's incredible.

And the chapel was named after

one of Allison's relatives.

Oh, no.

It's a distant relative.

And by marriage. My family

really isn't involved with the chur...

You won't believe who's being

invited to the wedding.

The Kennedys. The Pattersons.

Diane Sawyer.

The Kennedys.

Wait.

Will you stop it?

You know what?

We don't know them.

I mean, my dad does business with them,

or he raised money for them.

- I don't even know which.

- Karen campaigned for one of the Kennedys.

- Who was it?

- Joseph Kennedy.

Of course, we didn't know them either.

- Don't be ridiculous.

- Well, we could have.

We have a restaurant.

That's where all those congressmen

seem to spend their time.

Speaking of restaurants, Andy is driving

me nuts about your bachelor party.

I think he's taking this best man thing

too seriously.

He even called me

the other day when I was teaching class.

I didn't see Kyle's name on the invitation list.

What happened to Kyle?

Are we through?

Anyone want seconds?

- I'll have some pie.

- Is Kyle coming?

- He's transferring to Duke.

- Not until the fall, is he?

- Oh, no.

- What? What's the matter?

- I forgot to get the sherbet for tonight.

- Sherbet with pie?

No, you.

It... It's for the punch.

It goes in the punch.

Your mother likes it.

- Uh, Matt, honey...

- Want me to get it? I'll get it. No problem.

- I'll go with you.

- No, let my family entertain you for a couple of minutes.

- I've got money, Mom.

- Well, I, um...

No, really. It's really close.

I'll be right back.

- What kind, Mom?

- A half gallon of lime sherbet.

- Try not to miss me too much. All right?

- Okay.

So when's everyone coming?

- Soon.

- Thanks, son.

So, uh, Andy's gonna be

the best man. It's definite.

I told you that.

I think it's something...

something I would

probably remember.

Lisa?

- Lisa?

- Yeah.

Why don't we save the pie

for when everyone is here?

All right.

Over here.

The youngest pictures

are at the bottom...

and then work their way up to as close

to the present as we can be.

We moved around a lot

when the children were young.

I guess if we had

anything to do over...

we would have stayed

in one place...

or at least
