Weekend-o-fun

SUCH a fun weekend!!! Got my old roomdog Erin all married off. It was such a fun wedding.. she had 10 bridesmaids and we all knew each other well. It made for some good times.

Thursday Night:
Bachelorette party was a RIOT!!! Erin has been known to make fools out of the brides she's hosted bachelorette parties for. So what did we do to her?? Oh yes.. paid her back IN FULL!!! She was in quite the get-up.. complete with a light up tiara, boa, and tool butt bow to pull the outfit together. We made a few stops at stores to get the necesities for her honeymoon in her nice lil outfit. I'll spare you those pictures for the PG blog version. This was one of the highlights of the night. We made her do a choir dance to "Going to the Chapel" complete with jazz hands. (Story: one LATE night at the ol' apartment, we were a tad hyper and Erin started whipping out a choir dance to a song that was on the radio.. I seriously peed my pants. We thought her routine was good enough to show in this restaurant) This was also payback for her making me sing the same song IN SPANISH at a mexican restaurant at my bachelorette party. No, I do not know Spanish.. at all. I sounded rather gringo-ish.

Friday festivities:
Got to use my college degree again by arranging the bouquets. Horticulture 250 was the best class I ever took. It's paid off for 3 of my friends wedding and my own. It wasn't too stressful... I did realize that calla lilies are not my best friend. =/

One reason this weekend was completely fabulous was because I got to see my nephew every day. Yes, he is the cutest thing in the entire world. I'm sure most of you have done the whole, call the baby that's holding the phone game? Jett couldn't get enough of it! Yes, this smile was after the 15th time uncle Darin called him on my phone. Gosh, he is seriously the cutest kid in the world. That is.. until lil' miss Darinette or Darin Jr. comes into the world. Right now he holds the crown.

Saturday:
Here's a picture of Erin (yes, the BRIDE) doing my hair on her wedding day. She did 3 of the b-maid's hair and her OWN!! She was so completely unstressed. =) No pyscho bride on our hands. =) Her own wedding makes the 16th wedding she's been apart of, remember? And take a long hard look at that picture.. I do not have any make up on... that will be the last time that I post a pic on the internet of me not in makeup!!! After we got our hair done, we got dressed. I had the privilege of dressing Mr. Jett in his tux.I had NO clue they made tux's little enough for him!! Look at him.. he looks amish in his little black and white get-up! All the women were oo-ing and ah-ing over him.. he's such a little amish, irish ladies man.


Here's a pic of my other 2 roomates.. oh.. I love these girls so much!!!
We now have 3 of these exact pictures (below) of this pose.. the bride is just different in each picture!! LOVE these girls.. 3 of them were my roomates before I married Darin and Natalie, the gal on the right, is my sister-in-law.


I love you so much, Erin!!! SO glad you've found the one. =)


Attending weddings always makes me realize what a privilege it is to be married to my Darin Jay.


SUCH a great weekend!

p.s.
Also, people always say you and Darin look alike but I don't see it. This could possibly be because I think Darin looks like Drew Lachey. Drew Lachey. Darin Jay. Things are lookin a little fishy to me...
