What a Week

 It's been a crazy week.  I spent 4 days in Atlanta for my older brother's wedding.  It was one of best times I've ever had with that side of the family, and I'm so happy for my brother and new sister-in-law.  They live in a beautiful house, have made some wonderful friends, and are very good for each other. 

Here's a pic of the whole family.  


My brother, Paul, and his new wife, Yelina, leaving after the ceremony.
Finally, Cuban weddings never fail to entertain.  Here is my younger brother Mike, showing the bride's 68-year-old father how to do The Worm.



Election Day was my first day back.  I must say I was very moved by the historical significance of the entire day, even though I voted for McCain.  It was also really cool to hear my students talking so passionately about the election.  I heard supporters from each side, and the whole campus was abuzz the entire day.  It made me really hopeful that the next generation will not be politically apathetic.

On a fun note, check out my brother Peter's entry for the FreeCreditReport.com video contest.  Go to the contest's YouTube page and search for PBHolbert.  Give him a thumbs up to vote for him. You can vote once a day for the next two weeks.  Every time I watch it, I literally laugh out loud.
