Weekend Update

So since i haven't really been writing anything of substance lately (or ever) i'll just do the regular weekend update.. it was pretty fun though!

Friday: Matt & Marci came over for dinner, which was yummy (or nums, your choice) and then we played some Scattegories (sp?), and sat around chit-chatting. It was so laid back and yet so fun.. after they left Alex and I partaked in a little Behind the Music: Lil Wayne.. which was very interesting, he seems like a genius.. but he'll probably die too young from drinking codeine.

Moving on..
Saturday: We slept in (<3) and then got up, got ready.. I went to Home Depot while Alex ironed his outfit. We left for DE and first stopped at lunch at Conestoga Restaurant (after much though of where we'd like to eat lunch).. it was good, their ranch dressing is phenomenal. I had a couple french fries though.. whoops! Then we were on our way to Rehobeth. We made good time and walked along the beach while the wedding stuff was being set up. I never thought i'd like to have a wedding on a beach but after attending theirs.. it was lovely, and right after the ceremony we saw a huge pod of dolphins.. incredible! the one thing that could have been better was the weather.. it wasn't raining during the ceremony but the clouds were definitely out. Another thing i didn't think i'd like were personalized vows.. however their vows were so romantic and heartwarming.. every wedding now makes me think of my own wedding day.. which is of course, happy! After the ceremony we headed to the reception at DogFish Head.. they bombarded us with delicious appetizers and I had a Blood Orange infused Cosmo.. which was delicious (and though not part of my diet, I had to splurge). We had our dinners and then watched them cut the beautiful cake. Mmm Chocolate with peanut butter icing! There was glass clinking and toasts from other tables. It was very relaxed and very fun.. I love those two! [And congrats!! now make a baby ;) ]

Afterwards, Alex and I drove back to Lancaster and stopped by Matt's house to enjoy the after party of that day's party. We laughed, watched the end of Hellboy 2 and the beginning of Borat and fell asleep on the floor.

I have to say.. it's so nice hanging out with friends and waking up completely sober since you hadn't drank the night before. Heaven without a Hangover. We ate the yummy breakfast made by Mrs. VW and then headed home. Alex watched the Eagles while I showered and got to know Snow Leopard. We then made a trip to the grocery store and Marshall's. We spent the rest of the evening watching Federer, Mallrats and the MTV VMAs.

The vma's were okay.. Russell Brand is a tad outspoken.. and not really all that funny, just shocking. I'm sure that's what MTV was going for when hiring him for last year and this year.. he brings the ratings i'm sure. The MJ tribute was touching and though I wouldn't have voted for Taylor Swift for best video.. (even though I love her) she didn't deserve to be squashed by Kanye West. Just because KW gives up his awards that he thinks other people deserve, doesn't mean other people have to. This isn't Kanye's world.. and he should've placed a vote if he cared. Taylor has a very loyal fan base and that was proven by her win. She deserved respect and credit for her talent. Which Kanye later gave in his apology..

But enough about that non-sense.. here's to another week looking forward to the weekend!
