Rehoboth Wedding Recap
Ok, worked from home today and I'm calling it quits and I have a few minutes before I need to start dinner so now is as good a time as any to try and give some updates here. A few weekends ago we went to our first wedding for friends that we've made down here, Casey and Colleen. They got married in Rehoboth Beach, DE which is the beach that everyone here goes to in the summer time. It is kind of like the Cape in that it is the place to go on the weekends and it is the place to spend the summers if you are young college kid or recent grad. The only issue is that it is at least a three hour drive, without traffic, so that was a bit of a shock being used to the Cape drive of about an hour and a half.So we left work early on that Friday and drove up there, our friend Parker's parents have a gorgeous beach house there and they were so nice to let us stay. So anyway we get up there around 8 or something and we go get a quick bite to eat and then the craziness begins, you know how the Friday night before a wedding can be. We end up going to a house party thrown by the groom's parents in a house they rented, I was drinking Johnny Walker Blue within about an hour, which was nice but a good indication of where the night went. We then went to the Starboard which is one of the crazy beach bars there. We were drinking Orange Crushes which are the drink of choice when at the beach. They taste like OJ but are lethal. We were having a great time and they had a Bruce Springstein band that was a spot on match, it was amazing. I got some pictures that are in the gallery. And I even got a few that I labeled The Boss if you want to go right to those. We were up till about two in the morning in the hot tub back at the house to finish off the night.So on Saturday morning none of were feeling fresh exactly, to say the least, but we all rallied and hit the church for the ceremony and then headed to the reception to do it all over again. The wedding was great, the food and drink were amazing, first wedding I've been to that had a mashed potato bar during the cocktail hour, and I've been to a lot of weddings. Great idea. The ceremony ended around 8 and then we headed to another bar to drink and watch the Sox, they won that night which was exiciting.So that was a few weekends ago, enjoy the pictures. I've got jury duty tomorrow which is kind of a bummer...off to cook dinner.
