Well wow... weekend went SUPER fast... Friday seemed like it was here and gone... did a few thing around the apartment until about 1pm, ran out to tan and get my nails done for the wedding... then it was time to gather all the boys and bring them to their haircuts, and then we were off to the wedding rehersal... that time passed, I ran out to Kohls to see if I could find a black spring "dressy" coat for the wedding since chances were it could be cold... so needless to say I found one but better yet... on the clearance rack, paid $23.00 for it :) Off to meet the boys and Jer at pizza ranch since he took them to pick a game and movie for the night, then after supper ( only the kids ate) we ran the boys home where Molly was waiting for us... and then Jer and I were off for the evening, went for supper at Houlihans and to a movie... we saw UNITED 93, wow what a movie... really makes you think about 9/11... I was bothered by it a lot that night and think I am still troubled by it... just makes you really wonder what all happened that day, and to be a family member loosing a loved one. I just count my blessings everyday since my husband is on the go ALOT lately, and I will never forget his mom calling me that am... asking me where he was without having any idea what was going on. Makes me shiver even thinking about it. Then we got home and I realized I had a voicemail
Now for Saturday... what a morning... I went and got my hair done, in the meantime Jer was in charge of getting Issac out to Angie's for a haircut... well he overslept... so ... we had to make arrangements to have his haircut. I got home about 9:30am and had to sew the pillow that Blade was carrying up since he tore the ribbon off it... Jer and the boys were just taking their sweet old time getting ready, Jer took Issac out to get his haircut, in the mean time I started getting Mitchel and Blade ready.
I had Blade almost dressed (at this time its like 9:45am) and he was being a little "BLADEITUDE" just being whiny and not sure what his deal was... so Jer gets back from dropping Issac off, he was trying to keep him happy... "showing him how a scissors works cutting paper", Jer walked away and I didn't realize he had the scissors yet and Blade went to lay down on the bed while I was putting his shoes on, and the scissors slits his nose, blood immediately on his tux shirt... I completely freaked out since we were to be at the park for pictures at 10:30... it was a little minor cut but it could of been so much worse! So Blade is upset that his "pretty tux is messy" and this is exactly what he said and then I feel bad for flippin' out like I did. So Mitchel and Blade are ready to go for now... (we called in and got a different shirt for Blade from the Tux Shoppe) and Jer and Issac weren't ready yet and I am f' freaking out... cuz I HATE to be LATE!!! So I help Issac get ready, Jer sits down and looks up on his laptop "how to tie a tie" I could of screamed at this point!!!! since it was like 10:15am and we weren't out the door yet!
Why is it every wedding we are involved in something has to go wrong? Why?? So its like 10:30 we are leaving Cascade and we have to go downtown DBQ before we get to the arbortium where the wedding ceremony is taking place (Bride and Groom knew what happened and was well aware of the situation) but still... I felt SO bad!!!! So we are at the park, Blade gets his pictures taken with Sean and Melody and everything is cool ~ with time to spare to catch my breath before the wedding starts, in the meantime my boys are climbing trees and Blade is rolling in the grass and I'm just not caring... figured Jer was right there... he could take care of the situation, right?? So now its wedding time... Blade was lined up where he was supposed to be and Jer was with him but I thought I would go make sure he was all in "tact" yet... and then I get up there by him and he wouldn't let me leave, was cute but I was a little afraid he wasn't going to go thru with it... since he kept throwing the pillow and said "I dont want this" then I told him I had bubbles and candy waiting for him in the car, and he looked at me and said " I dont want to do this mommy" but then it was time and I put the pillow in his hands and off he went hestiantly but he did it. Open park weddings for kids ... not sure if its a good thing since my boys and the Tigges boys were running loose, nothing major happened which is a GOOD thing!!! just boys being boys. So anyhow ceremony is over and we gather the boys and mingle among friends for awhile and then we all agree on COLDSTONE for ice cream before we head out to the reception and then I had to stop at Target since Issac had on WHITE socks with a black suit! can you tell we were in a hurry? So I just wanted to get this clear with Issac that was a no no... and correct it, and I needed a DP before the reception just incase it was COKE product wedding... So we are at the reception, kids jump out immediately to go play with the Tigges boys for the day, they really do play good together and stay busy. Reception was fun, Jen and I BS'd a lot, drank together, danced a few songs, we even had the new mommy to be Michelle out on the floor, she is just too darn cute pregnant!!! that little belly :) And for Seth's mom... she is a keeper, I wish I had her in my life as my mother inlaw :) We share a deep secret from the wedding, she is just SO FUN!!!!! So reception is over, Jen and I drive into help clean up while Jer runs kids home and gets Molly for the night, had a beer during clean up duty and then all of a suddden Jerry Pasker says "Lis, why is Sean still here?" so I go whoop his ass to leave... and he says "where am I going to go and what am I going to do"... thinking hrm... pal... so go I go have a chat with Jerrry... still they are sticking around so I bring Eric (Sean's brother) over, and well enuf was said for him to leave :) it was quite the entertainment :)
So after clean up, I hang out with Jen... and Jerry until Jer shows up, I was quite buzzed at this point but ok. Got in our SUV and drove to Ron and Jen's for a few drinks and yummy snacks... well during this point I am not sure what got the best of Jen because she was feeling "real good" by the time we were leaving for Houlihans for supper, so we arrive at Houlihans waited about 20 mins to be seated, then we got our table and Ron walks in without Jen... I'm thinking can't be, she's not at home... so Ron tells me she is in the van ready to pass out and I am thinking what the hell... did she drink a bottle of wine after we left??? So Mel and I go out and help convince her to come inside, the poor thing I just felt so bad for her! She couldnt of said enough nice things about Mel and I on the walk to the restraunt, just a really cute fun drunk :) So we are all at the table now ready to order drinks and Jen is having the "water" look!!!! next thing I know Ron is getting up with her to take her for a walk but they did come back, then the 2nd walk they didn't come back... I felt so BAD!!!! I really hope she was ok! so I had one drink at Houlihans and called it quits, then I enjoy Mel so so FUN!!! she was buzzing off Martini's. Yes so for one wedding this year I behaved, I watched the gals drink... and I wasn't the dumb ass this time :) Just too old for this shit anymore.
So hats off to you girls... I will drink with you when we go on vacation, right?
So today was "movie Sunday" we went to see RV with the boys, very cute movie! Issac got his glasses, looks so grown up and cute! Got supper and came home.
Until I blog again... Jen hope you are ok :)
