This past weekend Adam and I took a long weekend to journey up to VA for Adam's friend, Scotty's wedding. Scotty was a groomsmen in our wedding and had asked Adam the same honor in his wedding. We were so excited to go and see both him and Michelle tie the knot. We were happily awaiting reuniting with some of the "Northern folks" as well. Jesse, Adam's best man, was also Scotty's best man. Anytime Adam, Jesse, and Scotty get together- memories are made! We headed out Thursday after work (after dropping Benny off too). The ride up continued into 2 am but really wasn't bad. My sweet husband let me sleep (didn't even turn on the radio for fear of me not getting enough sleep) and woke me up every rest stop so I could stretch. Upon making it to the hotel, we learned that Scotty was there (he was going to be rooming with Jesse) so we met up with him. After a little wrong-room-assignment drama- we reached our room at 3am. Jesse was pulling in the parking lot at the time so Adam headed back out to hang out till just about 5am Friday morning. Then we had to wake up at 8am to get "rehearsal" day started. While the boys went out to get fitted, I helped Michelle and the Bouvia family set up the chapel. It was so much fun to get back into that "wedding mode". Upon returning to the hotel, I took a nap then was awoken by my husband returning. We changed then headed out to the gun range with the boys (the other two groomsmen and one's wife had arrived as well). Here's a few shots of the boys:
Friday ended with what became a nightly tradition- FARKLE!!! If you have not heard of this game, you need to look it up. Think Yahtzee + gambling....highly addictive and very fun. Jesse has many pictures from these celebrations/games all of which I think need to stay private LOL. Needless to say, our night went well on into the morning. (I had stepped out for an hour or so to go help do flowers as well- the boys didn't hold back while I was gone.) O and Jesse, in true Jesse fashion, wanted pizza at 2 am and lucky DD here got to drive to a gas station so the boys could eat :) . They loved the prego!! Saturday was the wedding day and once again started early. The boys took pictures at the VT campus (BEAUTIFUL) and even in the "man-van" (my van had been converted and renamed). Then we were off to the wedding. I can't say enough just how beautiful the wedding was. Here's some shots. It was definitely a good time and we made new friends (at least I did). Adam and I wish Scott and Michelle the very best.
