So a couple of weeks ago we took a trip to California for my best friend Angela's wedding. Brody and I flew out early so we could get a couple of extra days at grandma and grandpa's house. The festivities kicked off on Thursday. Judy, Brody and I drove up on Thursday morning. I was meeting Ang at a salon to get our nails done. Judy took Brody and headed over to the house we rented. Originally my parents were going to come to the wedding and they found this amazing guest house at Ehler's Estate winery. It was an amazing house right in the middle of the vineyards. After we got our nails done we got ready for the welcome BBQ that Ang's family was hosting at their hotel. It was fun and I got to bring Brody. Then on Friday we had the rehearsal around 11am and then a few of us went to this really yummy place in Calistoga for lunch. After that we headed back to the house for some rest and to get ready for the rehearsal dinner. That night Mark and I headed to the rehearsal dinner and grandma and grandpa watched Brody for us. The dinner was beautiful, we ate outside and Ang put together a really great slide show. It was very nice. That night I stayed at the hotel with Ang so she wouldn't be alone. We got up bright and early on Saturday and started getting ready for the wedding. The day just flew by. The wedding was beautiful, a little hot during the ceremony but everything went off without a hitch and everyone seemed to have a really good time. I'm so happy for Ang and DJ, congrats you two, we love you!!!
The happy couple!
