Another Weekend - or - The Post Of Links.

The end of July brought a great weekend for Pete and I. It started off with the wedding of a daughter of some very good friends of ours from church. It was a beautiful outdoor wedding followed by an air-conditioned reception. (It was a tad warm outside.)

See how gorgeous the bride is?

The bride's dance with her father was to "Butterfly Kisses". Oh man. What a tear-jerker!

And I just had to include a picture of the flower girl. She was adorable and so loved the dancing! It was so much fun to watch her!

After the wedding we stayed with some dear friends (Dan & Cheryl) that moved away from here a few months ago. We enjoyed spending time with them in their new home and worshiping with them on Sunday morning.

Dan helped Pete find a car part to fix Caleb's run-in with the mountain.

Cheryl and I caught up on our lives. We found the sheets that Megan wanted for college. Those pesky extra-long twin beds that almost every college has...

Then Pete and I took off ALONE to celebrate our 24th wedding anniversary. We found a quiet hotel for some alone time.

We went to a play at The Guthrie Theater. It is a beautiful theater. We had an "adventure" finding the theater in downtown Minneapolis. Let's just say there is no way we could repeat the route we took there. :) From the theater we could see the new I-35W bridge almost completed.

We saw the play The Government Inspector. It was pretty funny. A few too many inappropriate innuendos (if you know what I mean...) for me though. It is a re-write of a Russian play called The Inspector-General.

We had a wonderful Sunday night and Monday morning of just relaxing and enjoying some time to just talk.

Monday we ran some errands in the Big City. Pete bought some new running shoes.

We ate lunch at a sweet little Italian restaurant that is right next door to the running shoe store. It was yummy! I had seen the place several times and had bought something to drink there, but had never ate the food. I'm glad we did.

I dropped my camera off for repairs since I managed to drop it and break the tiny switch that holds the battery in. :( So I am without my camera for 4-6 weeks. Sad. I may have to resort to "borrowing" pictures from Megan and/or Caleb. :)

It was a very fun weekend. How could it be anything else? I got to do my favorite thing --- hang out with my husband, my best friend. :)
