Wedding

We traveled to Michigan last weekend to see Pat's cousin get married! It was a hot, hot few days leading up to it and out air conditioning was broken (actually it wasn't, it just needed a new filter!) so we appreciated the timing of getting to stay in a hotel while we waited for it to be fixed. We were only briefly cooled off though because the wedding and reception were outside and it did not cool off until we left! But...we had a really fun time! It was so nice to be in a different place with a different view with nothing else to worry about besides hanging out with each other. The food was good but we didn't do any dancing. Paige made a friend though and the two of them and Owen spent a good amount of time playing tag around the reception tent and chasing after the bride and groom's dog, named Snuggles. We also had a large number of Shirley Temples and we kept sending Owen up to get them for us so the bartender may have thought Owen had them all himself and would start making them for him as he approached. Unfortunately the good-natured bartender had no idea how to make them so we kept having to mix them ourselves!

Stopped for a posed picture on the short walk to the reception tent

Shirley Temples!

These were the people we hung out with for most of the time

Seriously, we had so many Shirley Temples

The sky looked beautiful so we took some pictures and I was going to save them for our Christmas card but then obviously I posted them so we'll have to get new "surprise" photos another time

Family picture!

Owen wasn't actually on his phone a ton but we seem to have a couple photos from when he was!


Finishing out the night! Took off the tie, took off the shoes and one more Shirley Temple!
