i left early Wednesday morning to head to Nebraska. after pleasant travels i finally made it to my brothers apartment at 1 am. the next morning i went over to the dorm to see some of my friends there (Derek and Erik). i went to their old room and saw someone sleeping on the bed. i was about to jump on them before i realized that i didn't know him! they had moved to another room :) so i hung out with them for a bit. it was great to see them again. i saw a few other guys i know but it took them a bit to remember me. i keep forgetting that the last time they saw me i had long hair.
Thursday night Jeremy, Ryan (the best man) and i had a little party for Jeremy. we had pizza and soda and watched TV. then we went bowling. a couple of other people joined us too. i haven't been bowling since college but i still had one of my highest scores (125, i am not all that good :). Derek got his own bowling shoes and bowling ball. so i said "you know you have been in Nebraska too long when you buy your own bowling equipment."
Friday we had the rehearsal. i don't think they had very much organized ahead of time. the pastor would ask a question and they would just say "we will have to work that out." it was great. dad and grandpa drove all the way from California, and arrived during the rehearsal. it was a long trip. the directions for the trip went like this: "get on hwy 80 and travel for 1600 miles." cant get too lost with directions like that :)
Sabbath i went to see my old boss. his son answered the door and then went to get his dad, so i went inside and closed the door. when Lance came down the stairs it took him a bit to recognize me. we talked for over two hours. great fun.
the whole family went out sabbath night. grandpa bought Jeremy a new mattress. grandpa really wanted ice cream so went to a place called Culver's. we all got ice cream and french fries, onion rings and cheese curds. i like cheese curds better fresh then fried.
Sunday morning we went to ihop. right after that we all got dressed and ready for the wedding.
they wedding was nice, short, and to the point. as soon as Jeremy and Beka got settled up front the pastor wanted to break the tension so he decided to get a picture with them. it was pretty cool.
so at 1:42 p.m. Sunday the 15th of March, 2009 Jeremy and Rebeca were officially announced husband and wife.
and now i am back at school :) i really needed that time to take a break. i feel rested and rejuvenated. i am now ready to get back to work. which is good because there are only four of us deans for a week. every one else went to Arizona for Sondra's wedding. they should have have a great time in warm and sunny Arizona.
well, that's about it. hope you all had a good weekend and are ready to have a great week :)
sorry, the pictures are all backwards. start at the bottom and work up.
