At Last...

Well its been awhile since i've been to wedding. i guess the last one i went to was Mark's which was last summer...but i don't really count that one because there was no booze or dancing. Not that i like to dance, i just happen to dance when there is booze around. This Friday was Abby and Josh's wedding...about time they got married, they've been together for like 5 years.

i thought i had allocated enough time to get ready but apparently i had not. So my parents left without me and i ended up getting a ride with michelle, woot! Along in car with us was gabe and acacia.

michelle noticed that acacia had brown stuff all over her. i remember michelle specifically saying that the kids were not to get dirty because they had just gotten all clean and dressed up for the wedding. i recognized the brown stuff right away, it was chocolate...from a brownie. Whether or not acacia had permission to eat a brownie i don't know nor do i care, i'm just the fun jungle gym uncle.
The wedding was really nice despite the sun being in my eyes the whole time. i was really hungry at the time so i could not wait for the ceremony to be over so i could run to the 'barn' and get me some orderves...and beer. Oh man, crackers never tasted so good i was literally starving.

Brent got pretty dressed up, though i'm pretty sure he just came from work and that was the reason he was dressed more than usual. He was rocking the earth tones. i was looking pretty snazzy myself, unfortunatley i did not take any pictures of myself.

Of course before eating the bridesmaids and groomsmen had to say their speeches which took forever, at least i had a salad infront of me to pick at. For the main course i had some crazy roast beef with some horseradish sauce. Horseradish is so good, if you don't have some in your fridge you should go get some.

After dinner brent apparently got bored and started stacking plastic cups and glasses. Ending his tower of beverage containers with a flower pot place holder.
i said to myself that i was only going to have a couple of beers. But when i ran into david he asked me how many beers i had. i told him two. His response,"well you better catch up i'm on number 5!". Sounds like a challenged to me so then i started double fisting beers as fast as i could with the occasional bathroom break. i ended up only finishing nine beers before the bar closed...bummer, i was really getting into it to. Apparently david only had nine beers as well so at least i tied him. i'm pretty sure he lied though.

The party ended at 11pm, i'm pretty sure there was an after party that i wasn't invited to...there is always an after party i'm not invited to. My mom made out pretty well though, my aunt janice let my mom steal all the place holder flower pots. Got a whole box of them...i guess it isn't stealing since aunt janice let her take them, but i'm pretty sure she would have taken them regardless, i know i would have.
