still alive
My parents, Jon, and I went up to Maine on Thursday night and came back today. It was a family/wedding/planning extravaganza. I am so freakin tired.
We got into town around 1 a.m Friday morning. Jon and I dropped off my mom and dad at a hotel while we stayed at Michelle and Jasons. The visit with them was brief as we had to go to marriage counseling at 11 in York.
This time, we got to talk about the differences in our family. I think that we are pretty much polar opposites. So why do Jon and I work? No idea, but we do.
After that... geez, I can't even remember. I think we went back to Grammies with a "rotisserie chicken". :) We ate, then ran off to Clay Hill for our second "big meeting". I can't tell you how much I love them there. They are just on it. It makes it much easier for us because they know what the heck they are doing.
After that, we went to the Admiral's Inn, which is where we have blocked rooms. If you are in the wedding party, we have reserved rooms at the White Rose Inn. Both beautiful and perfect and very nice. :)
At 5, we went for our taste testing. FUN! I tried the fin and feather - breaded chicken and seared salmon. I forgot that I like my salmon cooked all the way through. Jon had the surf and turf - petite fillet and lobster stuffed haddock. MMMMMMMMMMmmmmm. So good, you are gonna love it. We also had lobster bisque - freakin DELICIOUS. We will be serving that up as a passed hors d'evors. Or however you spell that.
That evening, we crashed after such a huge and tasty meal.
On Sat, we met the cake lady at 9:30. We picked the cake and it should be just lovely. Stupidly expensive, but lovely.
We had lunch at the Goldenrod (which just opened) and browsed the candy shop. After that, Jon and I had a very luxurious afternoon nap before Gwen and Christian and the kids and Aunt Susan and Uncle Don came over for dinner.
Today we got up early, met with the florist at 11. She was wonderful and I am actually excited about the flowers. She will do an amazing job, and is actually very reasonable... we are just spending a ton of dinero because we have so many people in the wedding. Can't be helped.
What is supposed to be a 6 hr ride home took 8 hours because my dad insisted that taking 95 would be faster. It wasn't.
Here is my schedule for the rest of the week:
Monday - work at school, then go work at the hospital
Tuesday - school, then board meeting for Project
Wednesday - school, then Jon's dad's final concert
Thursday - school, then fly to Florida that night
Friday - Universal Studios!
Sat - My cousin's wedding
Sun - Flight back from Florida
Monday - my birthday!
Please Lord, let summer come soon before I die.
I need sleep.
