We are home! Home from Memphis, home from the conference, home from Bristol, home from family, home from a wedding, HOME!!!! Thank the good Lord, we are home! We had a good time in Bristol but it is nice to not have to go out if we get hungry, worry about running out of clean clothes, have cleaning staff knocking at the door, share a bedroom with my little man, worry about breaking things, etc. There are so many things that change when you are living out of hotels and so I am happy to be home!
The wedding went really well. The bride and the groom both felt like nothing went wrong, so I guess that means it definitely went well. They both looked so happy to be married. I genuinely hope they stay happy to be married. They are currently on a cruise for their honeymoon so I imagine they will stay happy to be married for at least that week! Haha! That said, their priest specifically mentioned during the ceremony that they shouldn't kill each other during the honeymoon. And I don't think he meant death from exhaustion! ;D It struck me as an odd thing for him to say but I am told that it has been said before! I think I would have raspberried my officiant had he said something like that!
We saw tons of family, and no big drama occurred. I can't tell you how happy that makes me. I hate the amount of drama that can pop up around family. Anyone have a theory as to how that happens? I wish I knew. I also wish I knew how they kept the drama away...
Hubby and I managed to go on a date after the wedding. The in-laws took little man for the evening to let us have some little man free time, and the reception was pretty short so we went on a date! It is so rare an event that I really want to say it again! We went on a date! We were totally unoriginal and went to see a movie. What can I say? When you get a max of three dates a year you decide that a movie that doesn't have kids bouncing around during it is a great date! We saw "Letters to Juliet" and both enjoyed it. It was incredibly sweet and left us talking about our relationship when we walked out.
We decided we have a lot to work on (what marriage doesn't) but that the important thing is that we want to be together. When is totally focused on work 24/7 I want him to be here with me. When I have had to leave to take care of things, he wants me with him. It seems like it should go without saying but after watching a lot of marriages I can say with conviction that it is not always the case in marriages.
Anyway, I guess this post has been random enough. Maybe tomorrow I can stay a little more on track!
