Hoooooo boy! Tired, sore, and a little achy. And that's just my feet
What a day, but such a good one. So many people told me how happy I looked and I am. Caitlyn and Tom are just such a cute couple and I hope that they always stay that way. Everything seemed to go off without a hitch and we ended up with sooo much food. Cait was stressing that people weren't responding about the dish they were bringing and was worried there wasn't going to be enough. People brought so much food we were running out of places to put it.
The "Human Bingo" was a blast and I really (forced myself) to take advantage of it. Tom's family and friends were mostly at three tables and I just plopped myself down, introduced myself, and then tried to guess who fit in which box.
If you are like me and had never done this before, the game is an icebreaker where each bingo space has a quality such as "has more than two pets," "has had a perm," or "can touch their nose with their tongue." You find a person with that trait and write their name in the space until you get a Bingo. I filled the whole card
One of Tom's uncles said I should be a politician but I told him that NO ONE would want that hahaha!!
The toast was a big hit, a lot of people didn't know the story of how they dated in 7th Grade. And if I had a dollar for every time someone said how much Caitlyn and I look/sound/laugh/gesture exactly like each other, I would be rich. Or able to fill my gas tank *G*
Gary has an appt with his LLMD and usually, I go with him but I am staying here and will start working on unpacking the boxes of party stuff. Caitlyn is working today and tomorrow is her interview (fingers crossed!!) so I know that she is going to be exhausted and stressed. Scott is over at Sam's and starts his new job tomorrow. Oh-- I got to hold Sam's nephew, he is 4 months old and such a little chonk!! Love him and his cheeks. It's been a looong time since I held a baby. Sam's family (the Samily) are all very happy that she and Scott are official. My mom and Sam's mom hit it off really well and Sam and my mom were roasting each other. Love it all. ♥
Life is good.
