Yesterday was Father�s Day and my parents invited us (meaning Justin and myself) along with my grandparents on my father�s side and my sister to the lake for a turkey dinner. The dinner was to celebrate Father�s Day and to welcome us (again, meaning Justin and myself) back from New York as no one other than my sister had seen us since our wedding - exactly 30 days ago. My grandparents were awesome as usual � especially my grandma who I am quite convinced really IS the world�s best grandma. My parents were surprisingly pleasant and I�m pretty sure we all had a good time. I know, I know, you were hoping for some crazy story from yesterday�s gathering � fear not, it�s coming in the next paragraph. Because Justin and I had an intimate (12 guests) wedding ceremony there are a significant number of relatives and friends of the family who either feel a) left out or b) anxious to see us in person and congratulate us. What this means is that my parents are going to throw us a reception/party thingy in August. I thought this would be an open house type deal with some buffet-style food and a few hours of socializing and saying, �Justin, this is uncle so-and-so...uncle so-and-so, this is my husband, Justin.� As more time passes the more I realize just how insane this gathering is going to be. My mother is arranging to have huge outdoor tents set up as well as DJs to provide the �entertainment.� Oh yeah, and the most hilarious thing of all (or at least so far)? She�s hiring A PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER TO �COVER� THE PARTY!!! Ah hahahahaha! Who the hell are we that we�re having the type of party that needs to be �covered� by a professional fucking photographer?!? Today is June 16th and the party isn�t until August 30th � that leaves sooooooo many days for the insanity to increase so stick close and I�ll keep you posted...
