Another wedding?? For real?

Pete and Carolyn got married this weekend.  It was a lovely affair.  It was also in South Bend so hardly any traveling for us. Nice!


The bride and groom bought everyone a lottery ticket for a wedding favor.

Swains and Thornburgs

 













The Swains are in a band called The Ladybirds.  They rock.  Definitely give them a listen! They just signed to an indie label and they're recording an album next year.  You can say you knew them before they were super famous.  Or don't and be jealous when I can say it.  Jerk. 


Speaking of bands, they had a band (not The Ladybirds) at the wedding.

Yep, that is the drummer's son "enjoying" the band.

Tomato Beer....

Pete's roommates invented the game Tomato-Beer (because you know, you can't just drink at a wedding. You have to invent a game to make sure you drink too much beer). It's mostly a defensive game. Basically you just guard your cup from getting a tomato put in it.  If you do, then you have to finish it.
The funny part: Some guy (Pete's roommate) dropped the tomato in his beer and then put his arm around Andrew.  He looks at Andrew and goes, "Dude, are you a farmer?"  Andrew shakes his head.  The guy replies, "Because you are built like a brick shit."
