It was such a relief to get into the Bowling Green KOA and set up house on Thursday! Put everything back to normal, take a real shower, run the AC. It was sweet! We arrived before most of the rest of the family, but Paul, Alisha and her bridesmaids were there to welcome us into town. We had a great evening out and Joe and I discovered that white, chicken pizzas are delicious! The rest of the family arrived at various times on Friday so we met them all at the hotel for some catching up before the rehearsal dinner.(Jay and Alisha at the rehearsal dinner)
Joe and I were a little late to the rehearsal dinner, but we made it in time for dinner, which was very good! I met Tasha-Scott's oldest daughter-and her son Ryan and had a great time with everyone. The location of the rehearsal dinner was pretty cool because it was in a building that has been in use since 1818 and the restaurant-Mariah's-has been around for 25 years. It was a pretty sweet dinner!
After dinner the Orosz side of the family reconvened at the hotel where PJ-Paul's son-met us and we all sat around chatting late into the evening. I also met Tina, Alisha and PJ's mom.
Saturday was a busy day. We had Joe's Dad (named Joe also) and Ann over for a crab quiche breakfast-yum! Joe went with them to Wal-Mart and I went to the hotel to grab Maria and Tasha to get our nails done. It is always such a treat to do that, but they never last. I think I use my hands too much or something... By the time we got that done it was time to grab lunch and get dressed for the wedding. The wedding was in an old, historic train station and was beautiful! I loved the flowers and the dress was phenomenal! It was very well done and lovely. The reception was just as nice at the country club with a delicious barbecue dinner and lovely cake. Everyone got to see me and Joe do a little dancing before the bride and groom took off. We all blew bubbles for them and at each other! It was a ton of fun!
After the wedding everyone met back up at the hotel where we chatted some more and relaxed before everyone would have to leave on Sunday.
On Sunday we went to the hotel to see Joe and Ann off and have breakfast with the family. After they were all packed everyone came over to our house for a while which was fun because they finally got to see it! It was actually able to hold everyone-10 people-not too uncomfortably! We had a lot of fun taking pictures and goofing around before we had to say goodbye to Scott, Paul, Tasha and Ryan. Maria, Norman, Caroline and Dylan got to hang out a while longer which was awesome. Norman, Caroline, Dylan and I got to play some miniature golf and I even scored a hole in one! Joe and Maria grilled lunch for all of us. After lunch we had to say goodbye to them too and we had the place to ourselves again. We went for a walk in Fountain's Square and had some ice cream and then came home and crashed. We were exhausted after such a busy and fun weekend! We can't wait to do it again, but next time it needs to be longer than just three days!
On Monday, we packed everything back up and went to Camping World to have the trailer brakes inspected. Good thing too because the right front brake wasn't working, but happily it was an easy and inexpensive fix and we were on the road headed for Nolin Lake State Park around lunch time. What a fun weekend and what a great town!
