Best to have more bridesmaids than mothers at a blended family wedding. Helps at Thanksgiving dinner if the grandmother is older than the children.
How can the matriarch of a big clan tell uncle from nephew when they’re the same age? Journalist Christine Tibbetts started pondering such issues 35 years ago when she married a man with four teenagers, bringing her two-year-old into the blend. She birthed one more baby, and then added leaves to the dinner table for the ever-evolving generations. Christine handled public relations and marketing accounts through it all, specializing in tourism, the arts, education, politics and community development. Twelve years ago the whole blend gave birth to a steady stream of travel destination newspaper features, with more unfolding all the time. BlendedFamily TMOM shares multi-gen trips on Travel Itch Radio too, a Blog Talk podcast.
