Family Wedding

Ray met Laycie by the pool. She was two years older than Ray and Leighton, and a very fast swimmer. They had fun racing across the pool, and diving for sinky sticks. Laycie must be related to the bride, as they shared many similar traits.

The marriage was beautiful, and Ray really liked Uncle Dave's new spouse, Renee. Uncle Dave's in-laws were kind and funny, just like Aunt Renee. Ray wondered whether he would be a husband some day, as he remembered his fun with Aunt Renee's niece, Laycie.
