Ah, I have more to say about the wedding… but I just can’t seem to sit down and write it all out. It’s partially that I’m still working through my post-wedding letdown, and partially because it’s frustrating how few photos I took! I have no idea how long it will take to get the professional photos. The pictures I’ve already posted are ones people took and sent to me. It just shows I was really in the moment- which is good for my life, but bad for blogging.
ANYWAY! Here are a couple funny moments from the week. Two days before the wedding, a couple of aunts who had just arrived for the bridal shower were sent out on an emergency mission to Men’s Warehouse. One of the groomsmen had the wrong color suit, and Paul needed a new white shirt, because (as I overheard Isabel saying) “Apparently Paul never uses bleach, and doesn’t separate his whites and colors, so his white shirt is GRAY.’ Ha ha… I wonder who was the idiot that taught him to do laundry?
Another special moment was on the day of the wedding. We did photos first, and as we arrived, all dressed up and ready to go, the bridesmaids and groomsmen were milling around. Someone said “Hi Angie, are you excited?” Angie said “Um… about what?” Yep! That’s my daughter.
Continuing with the humor, in my post from Wednesday, where I shared that our petsitter had to deal with our pet rat who passed away while we were gone, Maria left this comment:
One last thing- two days before I left for Indiana, I had a very exciting blogger meetup!
Kae and SHU have already posted about it (since it happened so long ago) but in case anyone missed it… Kae was in town visiting Sarah, and they kindly drove up to a Starbucks near me. We had a really fun couple of hours together before I had to rush off to get things ready for my trip.
Do you separate your white and colors? Are your white clothes “gray???”
Have you ever had an unfortunate pet sitting incident?

LOL about the dingy clothes. I separate my clothes into darks and lights for just this reason. I remember my mom coming to visit and doing laundry, and her saying, “Oh, I just throw all of mine in together” and thinking, “Yep, I can tell.” In retrospect, she was older in poor health, and had a shared laundry room in her building, and had to go down external stairs in Juneau, Alaska, where it is always raining or misty. And she was single so didn’t have a ton to be done at one time. Given those circumstances, I might throw them all together too. But yeah, they were all that muddy dingy color that happens. SIGH.
Throw the cat in the freezer! ACK! Yes, that’s funny, and thank god it didn’t happen while Maria was pet sitting!
When I have a big event, like a vacation or whatever, it takes me a while to write about it, even if I have a ton of pictures. I’m ready for your posts whenever, no rush.
I’m glad you had a good visit with Kae and Sarah!
