Another one bites the dust

Labor Day weekend we traveled to Ohio for Dave's brother's wedding. Erin, my newest sister-in-law, grew up there. The weather was gorgeous (except the last day was a little on the warm side) and we had a good time. FOUR WHOLE DAYS without Colbi. We almost had withdrawals, but she was good hands with my parents. Honestly, it was too expensive to take her and we had too much going on to drag her here and there. It just worked for us and it was a good break. For all three of us. I don't think she even noticed we were gone! 

I scheduled our flight at 7am Thursday morning. Eek!

This is Corey's signature look. 
The first day we spent helping them to do wedding stuff, but the next morning we got to go to the Football Hall of Fame. Dave was in heaven!
This was my favorite part, to see all the heads of everyone in there. Crazy! 
Because I love the Packers.
We found Dave's favorite place in the whole wide world to eat. 
We even sat OUTSIDE in August and did not sweat one bit. Kristen even had her sweater on! Who wants to move up north?!
Friday night was the rehearsal, and that was fine. Kristen (Chris' wife), Jenn (Dave's sister), and myself went out a little bit afterward while all the guys went out. This was fun because the three of us haven't ever gone to do anything just us three. In NINE years. That's pathetic. 

My handsome date.
The wedding was in Erin's parents' backyard. It turned out to be very nice, minus the heat. Everyone from Ohio kept complaining about the weather, us Texas people thought it felt great. We did need a little breeze under the tent though. THEY HAD THE BEST WEDDING FOOD I'VE EVER EATEN. I mean, THE MOST DELICIOUS BBQ. It was amazingly awesome.
We had a REALLY good time at the wedding. Who would have thought the Pettys' would have been the life of the party at an out of town wedding, but we were. We even got invited to attend another wedding in June. We'll see how that one goes! 
We were ready to head home. Three take-offs and three landings per way were a little much. 
And, someone REALLY missed their daddy. We kept saying, we left a two-year old and picked up a little girl. Colbi was just chatting away and it seemed like she learn just a ton of new words!

And, 
this happened! Boo. Walking, looking through your purse, and not paying attention to the pavement is not a good combo. It's a small bone fracture with some torn ligaments. I could have saved my money I guess and just continued to ice it down, but I was making sure it wasn't broke. It was quite swollen. All is well and I borrowed my mom's boot, so here's hoping it heals quickly!
