for making these peanut butter

and jelly sandwiches.

Logan, Well, you know, we would be

eating oyster stuffing right now

- if you didn't bump me over.

- Guys, guys.

- All right, guys.

- How about something--

what is something you might be

grateful for, young man?

Okay, we haven't heard anything

out of that side of the peanut gallery.

- Oh, Dad.

- Yes, ma'am.

- I'm thankful for sports.

- Lovely.

Oh, cooking.

Collecting bugs.

Collecting bugs" lovely.

What about you?

I'm thankful for computers.

I'm thankful

for computers too.

- I'm thankful for bacon bits.

- Oh yeah, those are nice.

And what about you, Mama?

I'm thankful that my daughter has been

looking a little happier lately.

Aww. Thanks, Mom.

I am.

I am very thankful as well.

In fact, I'm so thankful for

how this group

has come together so lovingly,

I have something very special

that I would like to ask

your mother.

Susan, can you stand up

for a second?

I think he's gonna do it.

Do what?

What are you doing?

Susan Davis,

you have made me happier

than I have been

in a really long time.

I think my daughters

can attest to that.

And I don't want to stop feeling

that way for the rest of my life.

Susan Davis, will you make me

the happiest man on earth

and marry me?

Yes, I will.

- I love you.

- I love you.

Well, Cheri,

looks like you're stuck with me.

Come here, big guy.

Ryan.

- I'll be right back.

- Yeah, it's okay.

Hey, buddy.

What are you doing over here?

Hey, look at me.

I know that you're sad,

but nobody could ever

replace your dad.

Jake-- he cares very much

about you

and your brothers.

What are they even talking about?

I have no idea.

And you dad will always be

very special to me.

But just think about it--

wouldn't having a man around the house

be kind of cool,

like maybe some sisters

running around?

Look, everything's gonna be okay,

'cause you know what?

Us getting married

is not about just us.

It's about having a family.

I promise

everything's gonna be okay.

You'll see.

Okay?

Let's go eat.

Hey.

Well, you think the little man's

gonna be okay?

Yeah. I know he's gonna love you.

He just needs time.

You know, we don't have to have

a huge wedding.

No, I think we should.

I think it would be good for them.

- Okay.

- Do you have a date in mind?

Yeah.

I was thinking Christmas.

You're kidding.

No.

You said it always

reminded you of family.

Hmm?

I can't think of a better way

of celebrating

the two families

coming together.

Besides, the kids will be off of school.

Everyone's gonna be in town.

It'll be perfect.

Hmm?

- I love you.

- I love you too.

Oh no.

Yeah, they'll be great together.

Of course

with less than a month to go,

things were bound

to get interesting.

Are you-- are you crazy?

- What is the big deal?

- We're not getting any younger, come on.

Well, are you sure

you're ready for this?

Of course I'm ready for this.

She's sweet. She's smart.

She's super motivated.

He's considerate and caring,

charming, funny.

Well, I think the kids needs

a male figure in the house, you know.

She's gonna be a great influence

on the girls.

- It'll be perfect.

What did the kids say about it?

I mean, Ryan didn't seem too happy.

How are the girls taking it?

'Cause I'm not taking it very well.

Well, it's not gonna happen

overnight, that's for sure.

Do you know what? I think in the long

run it will be the best thing for them.

Well, what about me?

What about what I want?

When you said you were gonna get

back on the horse, I didn't expect you

-to jump into the Kentucky Derby.

- Mom.

I don't get it. I don't get it.

You just did the whole marriage thing

and now you're on

the Sea of Tranquility.

And there are tons of fish

in that sea.

And you are talking

about settling down

when you should be getting down, man.

I mean, what's the big rush?

Look, we could spend eight months

planning this thing out...

Or we could just not dwell on it

and just get married.

Do you watch television?

Do you know what a bridezilla is?

I do not.

All they want is perfect.

Please educate me.

They want perfect flowers

and a perfect dress

and perfect perfectness--

perfect perfect.

You know what?

Perfect perfect-- we're not 25.

We don't need

some ridiculous wedding.

We've been through this already before,

both of us have.

We don't need that.

We just want something simple...

And no nonsense...

- Intimate...

- Little wedding.

At least let me handle the music.

That's good.

We're so good, dude.

We have our own Facebook page...

- Frank.

- ...My space page.

We're huge in Germany.

No.

Come on, man.

We just played the Renaissance Faire.

And all the knights in the crowd

were like,

"Arrrgh, thou art fine minstrels."

But they didn't sound like pirates

when they did it.

No.

I'll give you a massage.

This is a no.

- But I love you.

- I love you too.

This is tough love. No.

As long as you're happy,

I will support you.

- Thanks, Mom.

- I'm scared, but I'll support you.

Come on.

Don't forget, if it wasn't for me,

none of this would have happened.

I may have the mental capacity

of your average

two-year-old human,

but I couldn't help but notice

that the girls weren't exactly thrilled

with the idea that their father

was getting hitched to this woman.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- May I help you?

- Yes. I'm getting married.

Congratulations.

And my goodness, what beautiful--

- oh honey, honey.

- Swing swing.

May I say what beautiful daughters

you have?

They are lovely.

Well, you are gonna make

a beautiful bride.

I mean, my goodness,

you have lovely bone structure.

And we can find something to accentuate

your gorgeous blonde hair.

Let's try something on.

Okay.

You look splendid.

- I think it's a little long.

- No, it's perfect.

You put some heels on--

just right.

Yeah. Oh.

- I think it's a little too long.

- Yeah.

Well, what do you think?

You look like Tarzan's wife.

This is one of my

most popular designers.

She still looks like Tarzan's wife.

Oh.

Okay, this is

a brand-new one. It just came in today.

Now it's floor-length,

which is a must, I think.

It's got a corseted bodice

which shows off your figure perfectly.

It's got full support

and a neckline

that is gonna make

that groom's heart flutter.

- I think it's a little too sparkly.

- I like it. It's pretty cool.

Speaking of flutter,

is this in dollars?

Honey, you can't put a price tag

on the most important day of your life.

Yeah, but this is

a down payment...

- it's okay.

- ...on a house.

We don't need to go to college.

Do you have something

on sale maybe?

I do have some stuff

in the back.

You're welcome to fish through.

Follow me.

She shoots.

She scores.

Hey puppy. Hi.

Did you miss me?

Oh, you are a good boy.

- Hello.

- Hi sweetie.

I made Santa sugar cookies--

your favorite.

Oh yeah, those were my favorite

when I was, like, 10.

Oh, then I supposed it was Santa and
