I started the day off at 9:00 a.m. meeting Kayla at her house in Shakopee. We then headed down to Jordan to her MIL's house to put together the boutineers and corsages. We then headed to the nail salon back in Shakopee at noon for much needed relaxation getting our toes and nails done. A lot of the day was spent with Kayla on the phone with different people ironing out various details of the evening and the next day.

After a couple hours there we headed to do other errands which included the bank and a Taco Bell run. We picked up Mike (the Groom) and headed to Eden Prairie and had to make stops at Kayla's Parent's house, Claire's at the EP Mall and the EP Bachmans. We then headed back down to Shakopee to pick up Briana from school. Her and I hung out in the backseat.

We then headed back down to Jordan for the rehearsal and dinner, but stopped at the reception site to set up a few things first with Kayla's parents. That's when the FOB, Brian, tapped the kegs for the wedding night and so we enjoyed a wedding night adult beverage...pre-rehearsal.

After completing all our tasks at the reception site we then headed to Jordan Park to start the rehearsal and have dinner.

After dinner the bridesmaids (and Wayne - LOL) made our bouquets that we would carry down the aisle.

After that task was complete we left Jordan and went back to Kayla's parent's house. We stayed up for a bit, but eventually gave way to sleep and had a slumber party. I needed all the rest I could for what would be a CRAZY and long wedding day.

Sunday, April 25th was my brother's 19th birthday. We didn't do anything to celebrate because he is a workaholic and doesn't have time. Even though he is 19 now I wish we could still get together like we used to. I miss him.

This was for his 18th birthday. My Mom made him a Rice Krispie Treats cake.

Wenesday, April 28th was my parents 21st wedding anniversary. I am 27 now, you do the math. :)

That's the rest of April for ya. Now onto May. I'm catching up!!

So my 27th birthday was April 9th and do I feel old. I can now say I am in my late 20's which is totally depressing. I decided to drown my sorrows in some alcohol and go see Hylander. They happened to be playing on my birthday, which I took as a sign that I should go.

There were several other peeps that came out, Shane, Deanna, Jenny and Joni. Thanks guys. Happy Birthday to me!

Saturday, April 10th Wayne took me to dinner at Mongos (so yummy) and we went to see Up in The Air at the cheap theater in Maple Grove. I got to pick what we saw and even though Wayne wasn't all for it, he suffered through it like a champ. It was an ok movie, I thought it was going to be a lot better.

Monday, April 12th was the Twins Home Opener. We didn't sit in our season ticket seats, which was ok, but from what I have heard our seats are awesome! Looking forward to the games this summer.

That will definitely be my most visited food stand.

That's my birthday weekend and although I don't like getting older, it was a great weekend celebration.
