Hey world, I'm back. Sooo there has been a lot going on - like mayjah things peeps! Most importantly, my lil bro just tied the knot!! This past weekend was a whirlwind of fun and emotions and coupled with the insanity I like to call work, things have been pretty cray.
So the wedding was gorg - despite the torrential downpours that happened. It was raining sideways. NBD. Here's a few highlights because to spell it all out would take like about 20 years…
- I drove up to Boston with my brother, SIL and 3 year old nephew. Sat in the back seat. We pretty much had the best time ever. My nephew and I sat back there and chilled/chatted. It was great bonding time. Shared some snacks, NBD. Don’t worry I pretty much had a bag of Goldfish with me the entire weekend and he actually said these words to the flower girls "are you guys hungry?? My aunt will give you Goldfish if you want them - she ALWAYS has them." Sooo if you ever need them - you know who to turn to!
- I got a spray tan from Benefit which was amaahhhhzing. Everyone complimented it and said it looked soooo natch.
- We saw David Spade at dinner Thursday night.
- I saw my sister's wedding gown and picked out my bridesmaid dress!!
- As we pulled up to the church for the rehearsal a homeless man was peeing on the lawn. Sooo that happened.
- My sibs & I made a slideshow that pretty much rocked the entire rehearsal dinner. Just saying.
- We got our hair done and I was obsessed with my stylist. We pretty much laughed the entire time. including when I said I wanted a messy low bun and he said "honey I don’t do that. let's not say 'messy'". Ummm pretty much that's my "go-to style", but whatevs you can do whatever you'd like. And I wound up with a low bun with "detailing".
- I had my first air-brush makeup job and it did not disappoint.
- My nephew wore a 3 piece seersucker suit. Nuff said.
- My newest SIL looked like a doll. She was amazingly gorgeous. My brother looked so handsome and they were 2 of the happiest bride & groom I've ever seen in my life!
- Richard Simmons was staying at our hotel - the one where the reception was, too - there may have been pics taken by my relatives. And there were a lot of sparkles.
- My brother's best man speech made me cry - like a small child. It was so heartfelt and awesome.
- We pretty much rocked our faces off on the dance floor. I may or may not have had a dance off with my brother's friend. It was amazing and one of the best things I've ever been involved in - in my entire life. He was quite the worthy opponent and at the end - we just joined forces and gave everyone the show they came out to see.
- I heart my brother's friends. Even though one of them referred to me as "medium-old".
- Sunday came wayyyy too quickly. I can't believe it's all over! Wahhhh!
This weekend is one Ms. Coco's baybay shower!!! I'm sooo excited to see the girls, I'm in a bit of a withdrawl state!! I'll have more to report in the next few days!! XOXO
