Saturday, we had a wedding to attend, which meant as soon as we woke up that morning, we needed to hit the outlets to find outfits for both of us, because every time we have an event, we both feel the need to buy new clothes. Normal. I think we did pretty good, however, on our selections.
The ceremony was outside, and it was HOT. Thankfully, the reception was indoors, and they had the AC crankin'. The rest of the wedding was only okay for me. The food was meh, the DJ was awful, and the mixed drinks were super weak, and not free. After the reception, we went to our friends' house for a little, but were still home by 10 since we were exhausted and sick of being in our wedding clothes.
I had high hopes for the wine festival on Sunday, but I'm pretty sure I'll never go again. There were way too many tickets sold for the amount of space and wine vendors that were set up. They really need to take a page from every other beer/wine festival in the world, and do two sessions, limiting ticket sales so those that attend can actually enjoy themselves instead of waiting in line for the entire day. The event went from 1 to 6 PM, but we left around 4:45, since we were hot, miserable, and bored.
It was nice being home at a reasonable hour on Sunday, and we just laid around on the couch all night. It was awesome. My mom and sister came over on Monday, and we christened our new deep fryer with fries and wings. I regret not taking a picture because they were SO good.
After all that was the weekend, another busy week is ahead of us. Volleyball every night for me, whether it's refereeing or playing, and then it's Friday, when we're hosting Miah's dad and grandma for dinner. I'm making the Pioneer Woman's chicken parm - yum!
I'm tired already, and it's only 9 AM on Tuesday.
Nice outfits! I do the same thing...special occasions deserve special (new) outfits!
