Weekend recap

Friday, Geof and I went to Kristen and Sean’s wedding. These are two very dear friends to us and it meant the world to be there and share their special day. The ceremony was outdoors and they were married as the sun was setting. They’re photos are going to be so beautiful and Kris looked absolutely gorgeous. The reception was lovely and the food fantastic. I loved our table, simply because I knew everyone we were sitting with and there was zero awkwardness.

Ladies

Saturday, Geof and I ran some errands and briefly stopped off at a craft fair. I wasn’t really impressed with anything so we headed off to the Greek Festival. Neither of us had ever been to a festival like this and after going, we would definitely do it again. It was at a Greek Orthodox Church and they had a carnival, shopping and lots of Greek food. We had a nice time and the weather was perfect. We got home early in the evening and spent the night relaxing and catching up on the DVR.


Greek Loukamades

Sunday was filled with lots and lots of football. Geof and I made a deal. I don’t know if you or any of your men watch a show called The League, but we have an agreement that Saturdays are my day and we’re calling it “Fantastic Lady Day” (like they do on The League) Sundays are for Geof. The past 2 weeks this has worked out well. I can see us bending the rules every now and then, but for now it’s fun!

Her wedding dress is beautiful! A new Greek lunch place just opened up shop near my office and it's my new favorite place. Greek is GOOD!
