She did, He did

Joan and Noah, teeing off. (Noah was a pretty good putter and carrier.)

Marv and His brother, John. It was great to be able to talk with him although he told me, privately, that he would rather be beat than have to go to something like this. :-)

Marv and I just got back from a great vacation. It's been a REALLY long time since we vacationed just for the heck of it - not visiting someone, not biking somewhere, just vacationing. Well, not exactly, I guess. It was Melissa and Cory's wedding that took us to Colorado in the first place, but after that there was no agenda but to have fun.

I've decided to write several posts on this vacation. All today.

1.

Melissa and Cory got married. We were invited to the rehearsal dinner at Old Chicago on Thursday so early (4:30) on Thursday, we left for Denver. When we pulled into the parking lot at the Motel we were staying at, we were greeted by Joan (Michelle's partner) on her way to the pool. It was a great way to start the fun as we connected with Michelle, Joan and Noah a lot during the weekend. We even all went to play disc golf before the wedding on Friday. (That's Joan and Noah in the picture.)

The rehearsal supper was great - good pizza, good friends we hadn't seen for awhile, good conversation. Brenda and Jason and family (Michael, Olivia, Jack and Carter) were there. John was there. Todd and Lisa and family (Ian and Lindsay) were there. Sue and Ed were there. Jack and Bertha. Michelle, Joan and Noah. Lots of Sue's family.

The wedding the next day was lovely. A little too "women will subject themselves to men" for me, but lovely none-the-less. Jack was ring bearer, Olivia the flower girl, Michael a groomsman and Lindsay a bridesmaid. They were all so cute!

I didn't take nearly enough pictures and trying to put the ones I did take on this blog is really frustrating. It puts them in at the front of the post and adds the next one before the one before it, so they end up backwards. Hmm, let me see if I can put text between them.... It seems that I can, so with a little planning the next post will be more cohesive.
