Last weekend, we didn’t go anywhere!  Instead Santi and Sarah, Chris and Kathleen, and Retzer and Lisa came to Grand Island!  Santi, Sarah, Chris, and Katleen got here Friday night and spent the night doing what has become somewhat of a tradition,  drinking beer and playing Rock Band!  Retzer came in on Saturday afternoon while Lisa was at a baby shower, we watched the Husker game then played more Rock Band.  Saturday night was all about the Karaoke at the Upper Deck. We were all jealous of the fat man in the skin tight, fish net shirt, but disappointed he did not sing “I’m too sexy”.

The weekend was alot of fun and consisted of the usual events; Santi recording a fart on my camera, Retzer chasing the dogs around the back yard, and Kathleen falling out of a chair.

Last weekend was Santiago’s “Welcome to America” Party.  In honor of him becoming a US citizen we had a pony keg of Empyrean LunsSea ESB, (Local Lincoln Brew), hamburgers and hot dogs, and of course a mullet wig.  Santi received a few gifts that could only be found in America, but not necessarily made in America.  Fun was had by all, too much fun in my case, and no one got arrested, though it looked like would should have been.

Last weekend was Chris and Kathleen’s wedding…it was awesome!

Gillian met Kathleen when she started in the Occupational Therapy program at Creighton University.  Gillian and Kathleen soon became good friends and luckily all four of us got along very well.  Kathleen and Chris are technically “High School Sweethearts” but they dated for seven years, so the general consensus is “it was about damn time”!

Gillian and I where both part of the wedding party, I always knew Gillian would be in Kathleen’s wedding but I was surprised and honored that Chris asked me to be one of his groom’s men.   We drove from G.I. to Denver on Thursday for the Bachelor Party, yes I wore the tuxedo t-shirt.  The weekend started on Friday with a “meet and greet”, then the wedding rehearsal, followed by the rehearsal dinner.  The wedding was on Saturday, a nice Catholic wedding followed by pictures, pictures, and more pictures.  The reception was back at the hotel, they had some of the greatest wedding food I have ever had!  On Sunday there was a breakfast buffet before heading back to Nebraska, Gillian bought a book for the ride.  All in all it was a great time and we are very happy to see those two get hitched…finally.
