A Quadruple Event Day




The morning started out at Skeeters in West University for the second Saturday of the month breakfast of the RROC. John brought the plaque Marque had won at the ABCD in Austin.



Next up was Olsin's T-ball game at noon. He was suited up as the catcher for the first inning and did quite well tagging some runners out on their way home. Hitting the ball has never been a problem so he has that part of the game down pat.  He was playing shortstop and managed to get the rolling ball in his glove. As he was trying to retrieve it from said glove, the 'pitcher de facto' turned around and told him to give it to him so he could throw it. Well, that didn't sit well with Olsin (and rightfully so), so he fumed a bit on the field, then marched off, arms folded, and sat on the bench. Fortunately he got another turn at bat, and was welcomed at home by his coach.

Dylin's official birthday was 28 September. Her party was today at the Sugar Land Laser Zone. Several friends turned up to join her in enjoying pizza, lemonade, and the delicious cake that Aedin decorated. Two 20 minutes sessions in the Laser Zone highlighted the afternoon. The participants were padded up and equipped with laser guns with which to tag  one another. Only Erika and Terry remembered their aliases...

The final and big Event of the Day which had been on the calendar the longest was the wedding of Ricky and Natalie at St. Paul's United Methodist Church. Marque was a willing participant in their festivities after the ceremony. Dinner was great and the cakes excellent with just the right amount of sweetness. Dancing and visiting went on until half past the bewitching hour.







 
On a walkabout the Hotel ZaZa where the reception was held, Sneed found the photo machine. He came back and said there's no line. I said, "Let's go then". This one was different from last week's. We stood in front of the draped fabric which made me look as if I were camouflaged into the photo. I was switching sides when the second photo was snapped, but we wound up with one half-way decent one on the final shot. Later when we looked at the photos more closely, I realized that this was a photo booth for Ashley and Elias ~ there were 3 wedding receptions being held at the ZaZa simultaneously. Ooops!!

  1. I love the pics in the photobooth....and noticed immediately that the names didn't match the bride and groom you'd just mentioned. You almost blended right into the background!! Looks like it was a fun day overall!
