Thatta Girl

Caitlin got hitched!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had SUCH a fabulous time. Everything was perfect and it was wonderful to reunite with Meghann and Caitlin. :)

But let’s backtrack a little bit……this morning before Ryan and I hit the road I had a sunshine burger on a whole wheat bun with a pickle, ketchup and mustard with a babybel cheese and blueberries

I was bad and got this for the car ride:

We went early to stop by my school to get my graduation tickets and uniform only to find that on Saturdays they close at 1:00!!!!!! Gah we were super bummed and now I have to drive all the way back on Monday to pick up everything!!!! :(

But alas, all was not lost. Outdoor world saved the day (or Ryan’s day at least). I was a good sport and got to ride the big tractor in my party dress—

And, yes, we got a few stares. I thought it was hilarious.

On the way to the wedding I snacked on this bar:

And once there, everything was seriously picture perfect…don’t worry—a video was made and is in the works for a post sometime tomorrow ;)

After the ceremony, we all headed upstairs for refreshments and I just HAD to try one of the “bride’s cocktails”, which was something involving malibu, sprite and cranberry juice. It was sinfully amazing but I only drank one.

Ryan and I also split this fruit and cheese plate :)

Meghann and I!

After cocktail hour, we all moved inside to dinner. Oh MAN, was the food good!!!!!! It was served buffet style (my favorite wedding dining option!) and everything was to die for. I filled my plate with some sort of green salad with feta and strawberries, sauteed veggies, salmon, a roll and a bite of the rice casserole.

And then it was DANCE TIME. And I mean we really tore the dance floor up! I forgot how much of a workout dancing was! Meghann and I danced to basically every song and I felt like I was in college again. We had such a blast!

Mmmmm and then there was chocolate raspberry cake!

Ryan offered to drive so I could enjoy some drinks so I sipped on two glasses of red wine throughout the evening. It was perfect! We got home around 11, pretty good for driving home from Orlando!

My feet are killing me and it is off to bed! Video to come in the morning! :)

CONGRATS CAITLIN!!!!!!!!!! She was the most beautiful bride :)
