a few pictures from Friday 7/11

More Wedding update

OK so I stopped on Friday - Friday was a great day. We had an excellent lunch for the bridal luncheon - Thank you Hallie and Hillary for putting that all together. Great place, food and of course company. The place was off the Reedy river - Mary's - very good if you are in the area.
From there we went to get to ready for the rehearsal. Erik took pictures, while I learned the ins and outs of reading for a wedding. I love the church - Prince of Peace Catholic Church - very beautiful with tons of natural light. Even the wedding coordinators from the church were nice unlike the one that helped at my wedding and Bobby/Hallie wedding!
Then it was off to Brad's restaurant - Gerald's - great place once again if in the area you should try it out. The food was wonderful - I LOVED the raviolis they were filled with butternut squash - yum yum. But that night I got the nickname of Mrs. Martini from the groom Dad. In my defence I was trying different ones and letting everyone taste them so in reality I did not drank one full one by myself - and if you know Bobby he helps a lot when he likes one and he loved the Key Lime one which we really need to get the recipe for (hint hint)everyone was great that night. Once again great food, great drinks and great people!
WEDDING DAY!!
Saturday was the big day and everyone was ready. I went to the church at noon to help out in anyway needed. Everyone was relaxed - I think. The dress was beautiful. The bridesmaid look happy and their dresses were beautiful also. They took pictures and then it was time.
The wedding itself was short and sweet. I was nerves for no reason the reading was fine - I really liked how the pulpit was off to the side not in the front of the church so even though everyone was looking I not not as aware.
The reception was fun fun. One thing I found odd was the groomsmen did not dance, but to each its own. But don't worry the bridesmaids and friends made up for that. KK fell a sleep in the middle of everything. The wedding cake was really pretty and the grooms Donuts were plentiful. Jaxon and Tommy found some little boy with a DS so they were happy.
Then Bride and Groom looked so happy as they left for their week in Boston!

no end in sight

SO this has been a very busy week and 1/2. As most of you know we went to a wedding in SC last weekend. We had a great time and very little drama with my little family. The drive up there was hard - we did not leave till 2pm in hopes that Erik would not be cranky but that did not work so I ended up driving from 9pm till 2am when we finally got to our hotel.
Tuesday was fun we hung out at the bride's house then we learned to Shag dance (SC state dance) we had a blast doing that even Jaxon tried to learn. KK and Maddie just ran around and had fun! Most of the time Jaxon and TomTom were plugged in so they were happy!
Wednesday we headed to NC for a BBQ and a lazy day at Hallie's parent's house. Fun fun times I even shot gunned my 1st beer! 3 of the 6 kids got stung by something but over all a great time. The kids held chickens, petted donkey's and rode and a huge tracter.
Thursday we really took the day out from Wedding stuff during the day and enjoyed our 10th wedding anniversery. Yes 10 years already where did the time go?? We went to down town Greenville and did the tourist things - found the mice on main street, played on and by the bridge on the Reedy river and played in the Children's garden. Then at Mexican at a place on Main street because it was the 1st place we saw after the kids started to get hungrey. Even my parents enjoyed the lunch and they are NOT mexican food eaters! Later that night we left the kids with Mom and Dad and headed to another party for the bride. We ate at a wings place where we got a bottle of Champane for our annivery - Thanks to who even paid for that!! Then we went to this hick back woods country bar with a mechanical bull and yes most people rode it. Me Bobby and one others decided it was not a good idea - me and Bobby wanted to save our little backs but everyone else had a great time! Then we danced into the night. Some drank too much but everyone had a great time.
Then Friday started ....
