September 13th - The Kecker-Behm Wedding was a beautiful day and as you can see by the pictures I have included, the Bride and Groom were glowing! The weekend started at the rehearsal, and dinner at the Speak Easy. Greg and I were included because I was the "Wedding/Reception Assistant". I got a mention in the program, and got to wear a flower and everything!! It was so much fun! I would have done it even without a flower :) but I was so happy to wear one!! The way Jenn talks this will be the closest I get to planning a big wedding- so I enjoyed every minute of it. The planning was done way in advance by the very well organized Bride and her wonderful Mom. All I had to do was make sure the actions followed the plans! And I can proudly say everything went off without a hitch!! I do have to make special mention of the "star" of the show. Kristin and Dave had a rockstar ring bearer in their nephew and godson Kaeleb. He must have said "cheese" a hundred times if he said it once during the pictures, and he walked down that aisle like nobodys business (once the photographer got out of the way!) He is soooo cute! The wedding was beautiful, everyone looked great "in their new clothes" as Dave says, and the reception and dance was great too! The speeches were excellent Tim, Julie, Jenn, Dave, and Kristin (best man too - name escapes me) I don't know who you all did it without crying, but I was Very Very impressed!! I just can't say it enough - it was a perfect day!
It took this 50 year old woman about 2 days to recover from the fun we had at the dance and by Wednesday I felt better and couldn't wait to get to the lake! We hadn't been there for 2 weeks so I was missing it bad. I drove down and spent Wed thru Sunday there and had a ball. The weather was just like summer and there were no bugs so it was great! I mowed, read, relaxed. Even though I was driving back and forth to work, it was worth it. I just love it there so much. I call it "my happy place" and Greg just shakes his head at me. We took one last pontoon ride with Andrew and Meagan on Friday nite. It was actually hot out there at least until the sun went down. Just beautiful. On Sat Greg and I went to a bar with a big screen TV and watched at the Bison get beat - a terrible first half - no defense to stop the run - and 4 INTERCEPTIONS - hard to win many games that way!! Yikes - I hope this bye week does some good and the next home game I will be able to cheer like I want to. This table of old people kept looking at us funny - and asking the manager to turn the volume down. Geez - eat at home. Hee Hee. I hope I am never that way!!
I can report that our Grandson is growing like a weed and is as handsome as can be! Probably the cutest baby ever!! We saw the ultrasound pics in person and they are so cool! He looks like a real baby in there!! The parents to be are beaming now that they know for sure its a boy. I think the fathers don't really feel involved until they see pics like these. Meagan can feel him moving, but when Andrew saw him circling around in there I think it made a huge impact on him. He is already planning hunting, sports trips, nascar Sundays with the little guy I think!! It will be so neat to see our son as a father! He has had a great role model - so I'm sure he will follow in his Dads footsteps!
Take care all! Love, Becky
