TRAINING & MY WEDDING RECEPTION
Since we got married in Vegas, we decided to have a little reception 2 weeks after our wedding and following Thanksgiving. We rented a nice little reception hall that Angie's family decorated beautifully and turned out about 150 of our closest family and friends.
We showed our wedding DVD, ate, socialized, took tons of pictures with family and even danced a little. We are very blessed to have such wonderful, loving family and friends.
A highlight I would like to erase includes me getting a little too overzealous with our cake fighting with perhaps landing the most devastating cake-to-face blow of all time. I meant simply to connect up high and instead landed cake inside my beautiful bride's eyes & nose. She recovered nicely thanks to some wonderful bridesmaids and sister-in-laws, but regardless I owe multiple apologies. So sorry babe! She recovered like a champ, and I am told that her revenge will come when I am least expecting.
