My friend Cathy, who I know from working at Lincoln Property Company, got married over Memorial Day weekend. We decided to go! This is the first trip Mike and I have both been away from the kids since Hunter was born. Long time coming…

We had a FABULOUS time. Friday night we flew in and they had the ceremony with a few close friends out on their balcony. I wish we would have had our video in camera in hand because it was truly comical. Cathy didn’t want their vows to be anything mushy, and truly it lasted all of 5 minutes. But they are destined to be together so it was a great exchange. John is a great guy and he’s a LUCKY guy to have Cathy! Next was dinner out at some restaurant I don’t remember the name of. We drank and socialized, met family and friends…again, it was a good time. Here’s a few pics of the bride and groom during their vows:

The dinner Friday night was fun. I got to meet Cathy’s family and just hang out with adults and drink. Woohoo!! Here’s a few pictures of our fun:

Saturday WE SLEPT LATE!!! Yay!!! I got up and went to Wegmans, a huge grocery store chain in Rochester that has just about everything. It’s VERY popular there and I don’t get the draw. Anyway, I picked up Wendy’s for lunch and while Mike tapped away on his laptop to catch up on some work, I slept. And dude, it was nice. :)  We didn’t have to be at the reception until 6. It was a long, fun evening. Which would explain why I didn’t take very many pictures. LOL!!

The picture on the left is John and Cathy and John’s sister in the black, Michele. The picture on the right is Brain, Cathy’s brother and his wife in the blue “wrap” as they call them, Marisol. The red-head is Cathy’s sister Kelly. She was a HOOT!! I enjoyed meeting her family.

Sunday was a very lazy day. We checked out of the hotel and then headed over to Cathy’s. They have a beautiful home and the weather was unbelievable! Mike and I sat on the deck most of the afternoon. He worked, I read. Later we went to a movie…saw Taken. Really good! Ordered Chinese take out that night and just hung out with Cathy and Michele. She and I didn’t really get to catch up the whole weekend, so it was nice to just sit and talk. John had a golf tournament early Monday morning so he retired early. Cathy got up on Monday, made us breakfast and then we headed to the airport! It was a great weekend and a nice break from my day to day routine and scheduling! I missed the kids but I was so ready to just hang out there another week! :)
