After a day filled with homework, it was time to head out to a double-header evening. First up, a friend of my husband's sent him a text early in the day saying she and her fiance were getting married. At 7:00pm. The same time we were supposed to be at a birthday party. Being the good man my husband is, he wanted to at least stop by, drop off a card and wish them well. So, we arrived around 6:30 - only to be greeted by the groom, who advised the bride was out trying to find something to wear. His bet was that the preacher would arrive before the bride... and he was right! Holy cannoli! A little after 7, we headed outside under a pretty tree and a rose bush and watched the two exchanged vows. It was quick, simple, but nice. We had to jump in the car almost immediately afterward, but at least we were there for the important part!
Next, it was on to celebrate Marshall's 40th birthday. Unfortunately, we were late and missed out on the "Surprise!" part... but we made it in time for the festivities. Several of our other friends were there - so between that and the rum buckets (yum-o!) floating around, it was a good night :)
Here's the evidence:
It looks like everyone had a lot of fun... :)
