I know, I've been the world's least faithful blogger this week. Don't forgive me. I've been bad.
It's been a bad week.
First those wisdom teeth came out and gave me all those problems. On Friday, I rode over to Lancaster and felt ready to die the whole trip. Then Saturday, we of course had to come home. Then I got a touch of flu on Monday morning and felt lousy all day. Then yesterday I wasn't quite recovered when I caught a sore throat from somebody, I'm just not sure who.
Most of these things had their upside. The day after the dentist trip, I was consoled by Rachel's bridal shower and spending time with the Davis girls. That was great fun. Manda, remember the pink soap? Whoosh. Then Lancaster wasn't so bad. I don't really like Lancaster. In fact, I think it's the winding roads that really turns me off to those shopping trips, but as long as there was a wedding to go to, I was going to be there anyway. So shopping was fun that time. Got new shoes. *smiles*
The wedding was cool. Not like other weddings I've been to. (Haven't been to many.) Pics below.
We ate at an elusive restaurant. Yes, elusive. It moves all the time and we only happened upon it this time by accident. I tried clam chowder for the first time last Friday. Clams have much the same consistency as balloons, but they taste different. Kinda seafoody. It was good. I had never had it before and had been craving it ever since I saw it (don't kill me for being so silly) on the ND PCgame. I couldn't remember what started my craving until Jbear mentioned it. Then I remembered.
Stayed at a hotel with no ironing board. Can you believe it? What kind of hotel doesn't provide an ironing board in the room?? I had to call to the front desk and ask for one, then go down in the dark to pick it up and it ended up being only this little bitty thing that wasn't any more helpful than a screen door in a submarine!
So anyway, the wedding was fun. It made up for any other discomforts.
Here's the pics I referred to earlier.
Josh and Nathaniel escorted the flower girls, Gloria and Hannah, to the front of the church, looking just as debonaire and adorable as they could well do. :)
Mr. Einwechter with his daughter on his arm. What a gorgeous bride!
Mr. & Mrs. Nelson Phero
On entering the reception hall, the new couple was greeted with applause and camera flashes.
Hannah and Nathaniel sat across from the bridal party at lunch. Nathaniel was most anxious to rid himself of several flowers pinned to his lapel. I believe he eventually succeeded in removing the whole jacket.
The cake was beautiful. Getting a shot like this is almost hazardous to one's health, with all the little ones that gather around the table when they realize dessert is about to be served. :)
The bride's father and brothers delighted our family in particular with tunes like the Wildwood Flower, and all the guests in general with others such as Beverly Hillbillies. This song is apparently often requested by their new nephew/grandson, Nathaniel.
A hard time they had escaping the reception hall. As soon as everyone heard they were leaving, throwing birdseed suddenly became the activity of choice, for the little boys in particular as you can see in this photo. They were so ardent in their pursuit, that dust ended up on many suits opposite the way and much birdseed landed in coffee cups belonging to the wearers of said suits.

Les,
Hope you are feeling better!! Your teeth need to get in line and stop giving you so much pain. :)
Thanks so much for the pictures and descriptions of the wedding. Everyone looked wonderful. How I miss those dear kids! Do you have any pictures of Nathanael and HannahGrace walking down the aisle together?

Sorry, darling, I don't have one of them. I didn't have a seat on the aisle and asked someone else to take the pictures for me. Hence, I have only what they had time to take. :P

Once you loose your wisdom, you usually do have problems.
I didn't have a drink to have spoiled, but at least it stayed out of MY hair. Unlike some other people I had seen.

| The ShugaBowl |
| Sounds like some kind of sports thing, but in reality, the ShugaBowl is just a little hideaway for me, Sugarcube herself, to let loose my thoughts and occasional creativeness. |
