The weekend of October 23-25 was a BUSY one! Not only was a coordinating and working with the American Girl Fashion Show BUT my family was in town for my Uncle Rex’s wedding to his new love, Linda Sue!
They had many activities planned for everyone – happy hour, TCU football game, brunch and of course the wedding itself. My parents, Jeff & Kori and Chad arrived Friday night to take part in the wedding weekend.
Paul and I took them out Friday night to the Shops of Legacy to kick off the weekend and show them a bit of Texas ;-) We started at Season’s 52 for dinner – where every dish is under 500 calories. It was sooooo tasty – you couldn’t even tell it was low cal! After dinner and a few bottles of wine we headed to Mi Cocina across the street to have everybody try a legendary “Mambo Taxi” hence the name you need a taxi home if you drink even one! ;-) And to boot, we watched the Rangers win the ACLS championship and head to the World Series!! Woot woot!!! The whole town was celebrating with us! To close down the night we had drinks, shots and danced at Sambuca…that’s where all the silly pictures are from! We sent mom and dad home in a town car (they thought it was so fancy!) before things got too crazy! Lol!
Fast forward past happy hour, brunch and the TCU game (since I wasn’t able to attend any of these – I was at the fashion show!) And here we are at the wedding Sunday night…. The ceremony was at our friend’s home in North Dallas, Jimmy & Mary Ann Camp. It was a lovely evening outside where they exchanged their vows poolside ;-) After we had the reception at Chamberlains Fish Market where things got a little silly again, go figure! But the funniest happening was that my dad’s shirt caught on fire from the candles lining the wall – hilarious! He was of course embarrassed but we laughed and laughed and he played along ;-) “That damn starch!”
