The Wedding (Shane & Morgan)

Saturday June 6 2020

  We had breakfast started before Mel, Pere and Taylor  arrived at the campsite.  We talked about the wedding and what time we needed to go everyone agreed on 1:30.  Diane and Mel went inside to start the macaroni and cheese.  Mostly Mel talked while Diane cooked.  Needless to say we were running late by the time the Browns headed home.  I got ready while Diane put the mac and cheese in the oven.  She showered while I packed the truck, walked the dog, and checked on supplies(wine, wine opener, wine glasses).  By the time the mac and cheese was done the truck was running we just took it out of the oven and into the truck and we were off around 2:05.

   We arrived at the wedding(the Smedley's house) just 10 minutes before it was to start(3:00) and it turns out five cars rolled in after us. There was no official time for anything.  John the best man hit something on the road and disabled his truck, he had to borrow a vehicle just to get here. We all had a drink while we waited for the ceremony to start. 

   It was a beautiful day, the Smedley's estate made the nicest place to have the wedding and we all enjoyed the grounds.  The ceremony was very short just the wows Diane didn't even have a chance tear up as her baby got married.  Gracie(their dog) was a big hit and made her own appearance in the wedding.  After a little chit chat about how covid-19 ruined the day for Shane and Morgan and how all the plans changed so many times we were lined up at the food table.  

   Shane and Morgan seemed genuinely please with how the day turned out.  We ate, talked  with the new in-laws (sounds funny) and tried to visit with everyone.  Both Shane's and Morgan's grandmothers were there and both couldn't believe the "kids" got married.

   It was well after 8pm until we got back to the Moho and Rudy.  We were to go down and visit with Mel and crew for awhile but we were wore out.  A nice walk for Rudy a glass of wine for us and we were done for the night.
