Lots to catch up on. Friday I literally spent just about the whole day in one salon or another. Hair, manicure, pedicure, hair again because I looked too much like Marie Osmond when I left the first time. We dropped Nelson off the kennel, met up with my Mom, Hale & Morgan, then hit the road.
My cousin Stephanie was married at 1pm in a beautiful ceremony. She looked like an angel. Her poor groom, Michael, was so nervous that they thought he was going to pass out when she started down the aisle.
The reception was at a gorgeous country club in the middle of horse country. Disco Stew didn’t stay long as there wasn’t an open bar, so drama was kept to a minimum. My aunt kept trying to act as family counselor so I had to tell her to back off, but that was the only tense moment. It was fun to visit with my relatives, especially the older ones. And everyone I got to see my littlest cousin dance, which is always fun.
After the wedding, on the way home we stopped in a tiny town off the highway to meet my other Grandmother for dinner at a favorite childhood restaurant, Shealy’s Bar-b-que House. J loved it. Everyone did, but I just love it that he likes good ol Southern cooking so much. We played the lottery (we don’t have it in my state) and we won $5 on a scratch ticket, then got home in time for the 9pm Trading Spaces.
Sunday we looked at more houses. Turns out the pool house has some water damage and was too small for the price, but J & I are debating a couple of houses we saw and liked yesterday. Hopefully people will start looking at ours this weekend. A guy J works with listed his house Thursday and it sold yesterday! I wish we could have that kind of luck!
