Hi everyone. How was the weekend?
Ours was great. Friday, DH and I took 1/2 days at work. My friend A and her BF met us at our house around 2pm. We took off for Chicago. We stopped in at my parents house along the way. We got to our friends house around 6:30p or so. We ordered pizza for dinner. We all hung around, drank, and talked. The boys went to the basement to play some air hockey. I feel asleep around 2am or so.
Saturday, we woke up and hung out for a little bit. We then headed to the hotel. We parked the car and then went to visit another college friend of A's. He lives in a loft apartment in the old Marshall Fields building. The building and his apartment were really neat. He was getting ready to take a trip to Germany and Italy for the next three weeks or so. Some for work and some vacation. So we only saw him for about a 1/2 hour. We went to a late lunch after that and then checked into the hotel to get ready for the wedding.
The wedding was great. It was held in a really old and historic building. They had a non-religious ceremony...which IDK if I've been to a wedding that did not have some element of religion to it. Their readings were poems. They also did a hand washing ceremony.
The reception was a ton of fun. Great music and food. They had cake and a crepes station for dessert. I had a crepe. DH and I danced a lot. I also felt like we really had a lot of opportunity to talk to the bride and groom, which was nice.
Yesterday, we drove home. I'm exhausted. How's everyone else?
