Weekend Overview

What did we do this weekend?  Well, we went to our first wedding.  By we, I mean, Michael, Mason, and myself.  Mason did such a good job.  He didn’t fuss or cry once.  We did have to diaper dash at one point, but he did great.  Mason would look around and occasionally he would see someone he knew and get excited.  He also was a huge flirt with the girls sitting behind us.  He even let out a squeal and giggled at them.  Oh boy, am I in trouble when his teenage years hit. I think Mason just thinks girls flock to him.  I mean he is pretty darn cute in his sweater vest and khakis.

After the ceremony, we dumped Mason dropped Mason off with a sitter and went to the reception.  The reception was so beautiful.  I really wish I had gotten more pictures.  They did everything themselves and it was just so fun and definitely was the couple’s personality.  My favorite thing at the reception was the giant jenga game they had setup.  I love a good game.  Nerd alert!IMG_3386[1]

The reception ended around 7 and we headed out to The Hive, which is this great restaurant in the Museum Hotel.  The food was amazing and if you get bored you have crazy good art all around you.  We went to dinner to celebrate our friend Rachel’s bday and we all got different food and shared.  My favorite was the steak.  It was awesome! One of the fun things about the restaurant are these large creepy green penguins they have that you can grab and set at your table.  We grabbed one after awhile and then our neighboring table had some fun and came and helped us sing Happy Birthday to Rachel. 

After dinner, we ran over to Crystal Bridges to see their new exhibit outside. It is a giant soccer looking ball that lights up.  We then went back to our house and had drinks and played a super fun hilarious game called Cards against Humanity.  We printed the sample version off their website.  Michael told me to order the real one off Amazon, so we can play again. We declared we need to find a few other couples to play with (*that won’t judge our interesting choices).  If you have played the game you understand that comment.  If you are one of those couples, let us know.

Michael and I have been together since 2006. We met in college at the University of Arkansas and began our life together. We bought a house and moved to Fayetteville from the Chicagoland area in November 2009. We were married in 2010 and had our first child, a boy, in 2013. Our favorite thing to do together is travel and we have gotten the opportunity to go to lots of fun places. We are working, breathing, playful parents. Our fur baby and child are the center of our crazy life, but we wouldn't have it any other way.
