Spent.

Hellooooooo!   These past few weeks have certainly been a whirlwind, but I'm happy to be back on a regular schedule.  Between starting school and my brother's wedding this past weekend, I am beyond exhausted and my feet are killing me.  However, I wouldn't trade these past two weeks for anything.


I am excited to re-cap the wedding, but I really don't have many pictures - especially since my husband was the photographer!  Anyway, the entire wedding weekend was AMAZING.  My brother and my NEW sister-in-law planned such a fun, beautiful weekend and everything was just perfection.  Thank you to everyone who sent well wishes our way - we had a great time celebrating!


The reception was held in a casino, which made for quite the wild weekend.  One thing that amused me about the casino was the clientele.  I am not a gambler, so I will never understand how old men and women can sit at slot machines for hours on end, chain smoking while breathing through an oxygen tube.  


But these regulars, to me, summed up the entire weekend:

Congrats to Kevin and Karen!  Here's to a lifetime of love, laughter, and holding hands as you get ready to spend ten hours playing the slots!  


P.S.  Thanks for your patience, dear friends, as I get back into the swing of things.  Look for a giveaway soon!

  1. I remember when we went to Vegas, no of us are gamblers, but the sight of old people playing the slots was like it was taken out of a movie:)

  3. I just love weddings! Congratulations to your brother and sister-in-law! :)

    And I had the same impression of casinos and their clientele when I visited one about a month ago. It certainly seems like a crazy (and expensive!) way to spend your time.

  11. Congratulations again to your brother and your new sister-in-law!!! I thought about you all weekend knowing just how happy a time you and your family would be having (and apparently the senior citizens who love to gamble did as well haha)! :) I can't wait to read all about it!

  12. So glad your bro's wedding was such a blast, and how cute are those casino regulars? I love the occasional trip to Vegas, but I, too, am baffled by the folks I see staring blankly at the slot machines as I'm on my way up to my room . . . and then they're STILL THERE when I come down in the morning! Yikes.
