White Weddings

This weekend we went to St. Cloud for K's cousins wedding. We had lots of fun and it all started on Friday night. We arrived around 4pm, checked in, and then headed down to the Green Mill to meet some of the wedding party for some drinks. After a while the wedding party had to go to the church for rehearsal and then we all met at a pizza place for the groom's dinner. We had wine and pizza and beer and lots of fun. After dinner we took E back to the hotel so grandma and grandpa could watch her so that mom and dad could have a fun night out. We started out at a place called M.C. something or anothers and there was a whole bunch of people there drinking what looked like a delicious house drink called the hairy buffalo. Our friend T ordered one and then we all tried it. IT WAS AWFUL!!! So K had some long island ice teas and I of course had beer. After a while it was off to a place called the Red Carpet for dancing and more drinks. Lots of fun was had and we were home around 12:30.

On Saturday we were up and at the wedding by 1:15 in the afternoon. At the start of the wedding E was great and loved looking at all the girls in their dresses, especially the bride. Then she decided that she had seen enough and started making a ruckus. I took her out to the back of the church so that we didn't disrupt the ceremony. Once we went out back E wanted to go outside and so we did. She played and ran around until the end of the wedding. We missed the whole dang wedding but everybody did love our little E in her dress and smiling and having fun with other little kids.

Then came the reception and fun was had. Beer was flowing to the tune of 7-8 kegs during the whole reception which started at 5:30 and ended at 11pm. K's cousin married a cop that used to work where we live so there were a lot of people that I know at the wedding and this crowd was a party group. Things wrapped up and it was a good night.

When we came home yesterday I was feeling like hell and I thought it was just the booze. I went to work and it turns out that it was not just the booze as K's sister, K, and K's dad also were sick. K went to the doc today and turns out she has a sinus infection and an ear infection. I talked to a couple other people and those two things are going around.

I think that this is going to end the post for today. I am still not feeling a 100% and I have to decide if I should go to bowling and work tonight.

  1. Let's just hope that E somehow managed to dodge the infection going around!!

    It really is odd reading two different blogs by two people who live in the same house and experience a lot of the same things. Her post about these very topics was so different from yours...very interesting how a female and a male see different things in each situation.

    No wonder a drink called "Hairy Buffalo" was disgusting, lol!! Long Island Iced Tea...brings back memories. I think I had one in a glass the size of a fish bowl a few years back and got pretty snockered.

    Glad to hear that you and K had a fun weekend, even if it did result in a bout of sickness. Hope you feel better soon!
