one crazy weekend down, umpteen to go

Chris and me at the first wedding of our busy summer.

This Memorial Day weekend kicked off our insanely busy summer with a bachelorette party, two bachelor parties, a holiday cookout, and the first of three weddings we're attending this year. Let me just say it would be a miracle if I was even just barely functional today, but I'm actually supercharged! I have four days left until I'm on a plane to Oregon, and I have so much to do! I need to pack, which I thankfully did get a start on yesterday... I need to finish and invoice my web design work so I have some money to spend! And I have to stay caught up, even get a little bit ahead, at work. I also have to finish preparing instructions for the temp who will be covering for me next week. I woke up this morning with all of these to-dos swimming through my head, grabbed an iced mocha on the way to work, and got busy!

The wedding on Sunday was perfect. The morning started out a little bit drizzly, and it was an outdoor ceremony, but it was on a covered patio. The sun came out after the ceremony and it got nice and warm. The ceremony was short and sweet (my favorite kind). We got some really cute photos and video of both the ceremony and the reception, which I will post later if it's okay with the bride and groom. There weren't a lot of people on the dance floor, which I think is because it was a day wedding and people were outside enjoying the nice weather rather than inside getting drunk. After the reception, a bunch of us joined the bride and groom at their hotel in Newport for more drinks and celebration.

In the photo here you can see the dress I tried to describe last week. It worked out pretty well, except that the back slid down quite a bit throughout the day. I had the sweater on the whole time, though, so you couldn't tell. If I wear it without the sweater I will just have to be vigilant about asking Chris to pull it up from time to time.
