White Wedding

Well, tis' the season for weddings I guess. This was my first week back to work - which went fairly well (although really busy). I left Thursday after work with a coworker to head to DE for a former coworker/friend's wedding. While she and her husband live in SC, she is originally from DE and planning to move back there shortly. We drove half way on Thursday, stopping to spend the night in Rocky Mount, NC. We then got up on Friday and drove the rest of the way into DE, arriving about 3 p.m. We checked into the hotel and rested a bit, before heading to the wedding on Friday at 6 p.m. The couple got married at the Brantwyn Estates (part of the DuPont Country Club). It was very pretty.

Despite the traffic in/around DC - we did get to see the Washington Memorial...well, from the car. We also went through the tunnel (as you can see on the GPS).

Here we are at the reception. We had a lot of fun dancing the night away.
We spent the night in DE on Friday and after a breakfast with the bride's family, we headed back to SC...leaving around 10:30 a.m. Despite our best efforts to drive around the traffic - we still wound up hitting several delays due to construction and just more traffic. We spend 9 hours driving and 10 hours total to arrive back in SC at about 8:30 p.m. on Saturday.

While I was away in DE, Aaron and Kendall had their own wedding to attend - that of a coworker of Aaron's. They were married on Saturday night in Columbia. I was able to catch the very end of the reception.

Here they are heading off to start their life together.

Here is Kendall in her dress for the wedding. Apparently, Daddy and Kendall danced the night away too, but no-one except the wedding photographer thought to snap a picture. We'll have to wait to see those cute photos. I am glad to be back home with my baby and looking forward to relaxing with friends Brooks and Brandi the rest of the weekend. We'll have to teach them how to play Quiddler...
