Stretch and Snake's Wedding

Alas, we meet again...
We just came out of an amazing weekend, well kinda (I mean, it is Thursday...)!  I was beyond thrilled when I was asked to be the bridesmaid in Jake in Melissa's wedding. What a wonderful experience that was! It's so much fun getting to go to weddings, after you have had one of your own, just to see the unique ideas each person has. Melissa did such an awesome job at everything, and the details were so spot on.  I had so much fun with her in the final days prior to the wedding. We got to do her final dress fitting (I cried!), go get our nails all pretty, have our hair and makeup done, and lastly got to oversee the final touches being put together at the venue.
Joe and I had a blast! The wedding was at the Januik Winery in Woodinville.  It was beautiful!  We got to laugh, take pictures, eat, dance, and be merry.  As luck would have it, I was one of the lucky one's who got to make a speech. Now any of you that know me, I HATE speaking in public.  I always have and I am sure that I always will.  When it came down to crunch time, I came through in the clutch and spit out a few short sentences, making it short and sweet.  We could not be happier for the new married couple and wish them many, many years of wedded bliss (and we hope for lots of babies too (: ).  We are so blessed to have such wonderful people in our lives!
Our little bundle of joy was not present, but he too got to have a fun day, full of adventure. Auntie Glynda babysat from 11 am til about midnight. She took him to the Evergreen State Fair, and said he didn't let out a peep the entire day.  He's growing so fast, and becomes more and more like a little boy everyday.  We just love savoring every moment with him.
Until next time....
