Spring Quarter, Fifth Year (2000)

Enjoying the food at the reception.  Around the table:  Trevor, Alina, Missy, Jill, Tom, Julie, Zach, and Darlene.

Introducing Mr. and Mrs. Pochiro.

Erik was a picture-taking machine with his new digital camera.  Throughout the night I'd ask him how many he had left out of the original three hundred shots.

The wedding party dance.

Around the table:  Zach, Darlene, Nick, Trevor, Alina, Ryan, and Missy, with Jeff standing up.

Another soon-to-be husband and wife:  Jenny and Ryan.

One of the more interesting events I've seen at a reception.  Frank was blindfolded and had to discover which one of the ladies was his new wife simply by the feel of their legs.  Unbeknown to him, Kara wasn't even in the circle of girls.

I think the new groom enjoyed it a little too much, he was at it for quite some time.

And at the end of the charade, he was bombarded by Silly String.

Frank also made the removal of the garter quite interesting.

And still taking off the garter.

The bouquet toss got a little bit physical.  There was a lot on the line.

Now the garter toss was a little more tame.  No one was too anxious to catch it.  Nick was the one who ended up with it.

Nick, who caught the garter, with Kara and the girl who caught the bouquet.

Four "volunteers" were called up for a Y.M.C.A. dance.  Here Tom is really getting into it.

And again, the Y.M.C.A. boys.  Greg was also up there.

Still at it.

Later in the reception we had a dance for all the OU alumni (and current students).

It was great to be with the old gang again.  And people were getting called into the center of the ring to break it down the best they could.  And no, I wasn't in pain.

Nick and Rachel cutting the rug.

And, of course, Huss was called upon to exhibit his uncanny ability to do the worm.

Jeff with Kellie and Scott, who are also getting married.  So many weddings!

And the happy couple, Kara and Frank.

Four bachelors:  Steiny, Leake, Huss, and T-Gunn.  Okay, sorry Jill.  Tom isn't exactly an ELIGIBLE bachelor.

Jeff and the bride.

After the reception a bunch of us went to a local hangout where Kellie used to bartend - Doc Watson's.
