Enjoy The Show

It's become a bit of a tradition in our family to do weird and goofy things at people's weddings to embarrass ourselves or the couple that's getting married. So Sarah's wedding couldn't be any different. We hemmed and hawed over what to do that would be funny and yet perfectly suited to Sarah. Sarah and her sister Janeen belong to a trio that sing at various events around Cochrane and Calgary. They do a lot of Andrews Sisters music and have choreographed a few 'steps' to go with their singing. Tyler and Jason love to hear their sisters sing, but being brothers, they also like to tease them. Tyler said one day, 'we need to come up with a way to tease Sarah about singing, that doesn't push it too much, so she doesn't think we don't actually like her singing...because we really do.' And then an idea was born. Sarah's favorite movie is "White Christmas" and because she loves to sing so much with her sister Janeen...we though it only appropriate for Jason and Tyler to dress ridiculously and recreate the scene where Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye impersonate the female counterparts in the movie and sing a song called, 'Sisters'.

And, being the wife, I get the pleasure of laughing hysterically while watching these two rehearse.
When it came time to put on the show, the entire Williamson family was in stitches watching these two goof-balls.

I think the Merrill family was wondering what they had gotten themselves into! The best part was the fact that we were able to keep it a secret from everyone, so Sarah and her parent's reactions were the best! Lucy and Max were aware of the practicing so we kept having to remind them to keep it under wraps. At one point, Max was caught walking up to Grandma's house singing, "Heaven, help the mister, who comes between me and my sister!" until Auntie Janeen quieted him down and reminded him it was a secret.
So awesome.
