Yes I know-the cobwebs are quite thick.
I had a very busy weekend.
My mom's cousin-my 2nd cousin-got married this weekend. He is 26 and we usually see him at Thanksgiving every so often. Anywho-we drove up to Jacksonville to get my brother and then drove down to St. Augustine where the wedding was to be held.
He is my grandma's nephew so she had many of her sisters in town-it was nice to see/meet them all again. I hadn't seen a lot of them in many years. They all look and sound alike. All of them are quite loud and talk over the other-it's kind of like when all my aunts get together.
So we walked around downtown St. Augustine for a while on Friday night. What a cute little town. Then we all came back and had a porch party. 3 of my mom's sisters were there too and their children so we had several rooms right next to each other.
Saturday we woke up and got ready for the noon wedding. It was very nice. Then we took a trolley to the reception but since we were early, we hung out downstairs at the brewery. They had some really yummy beers on tap. Finally it was time to head upstairs for the reception-again very nice-yummy food, etc...
They rented trolleys to take us from the church to the reception and vice versa but the trolley wouldn't be leaving for the church until 6pm and we had eaten our meals, had cake, etc and it was only 4pm...so we walked back to the church (only a few blocks) and got the car to go back to the hotel.
There was an after wedding party/luau at the beach at 8pm so a nap was in order. After my nap, we all headed to the luau. It was ok-lots of young kids (listen to me-as if I'm old) mostly the bride and grooms friends in their early 20's. We didn't stay too long as it was really windy and rainy so back to the hotel we went. We were planning on another porch party, but my cousin (8 years old) had sand thrown in his face at the luau by another kid so my aunt and uncle had to take him to the ER to get checked out as some sand got in his eyes. He did have a scratch on his eye so they gave him some meds.
Sunday we woke up and went to the shrine across the street from our hotel-(a shrine for mothers I think-can't remember the exact name of it) then headed over to the fountain of youth. I drank the water there so should be getting younger as we speak (or type) hehe!!
It was a loooonnnnnnngggggggggggggggg drive back home. We had to drop Pat back off in Jax and of course buy him some groceries and get some dinner, so we made it back to Clearwater at 8:00pm.
I picked up Peanut and made it home just in time to watch Desperate Housewives.
I was beat today! I did not want to get out of bed, but I did.
So that was my weekend. I'll post some pictures soon of some of the highlights.
This week's agenda:
*register for summer classes-going to take 2-yikes!!!
*grocery shop
*laundry
*get my homework done for my class
I think that's it...don't want to overdo it...but Robin keeps telling me to
SAVE FOR THE CRUISE, SAVE FOR THE CRUISE, SAVE FOR THE CRUISE.
So I can't do any shopping and I must stay busy here at home!
Enjoy your week!
