Jess & Mike
the 3rd wedding of the month!
One of the best things about this wedding was that the groom is a super enthusiastic beer brewer! Rumor has it that he regularly wins ribbons in the Ohio State Fair and even grows some of his own hops. SWEET!
That said, he brewed all the beer for the wedding! There were 4 delicious choices.
AWESOME! We received hand-etched beer glasses as favors too!
Another great thing about this wedding was getting to see all my sorority friends again. It's been soooooo long (like either 5 years since my wedding or 8 years since graduation).
Now most of them are married and had their husbands in tow.
wow, I love cake
It's amazing how gown-up everyone seemed and at the same time, it was like no one had changed at all. What a blast.
Congrats!
I flew home to PA the next day, July 3, in time to catch some Independence Day festivities. My consumption of beer coupled with a turbulent landing resulting in my inaugural use of the airplane barf-bag. Luckily, no one was next to me. Nothing says "class" like hurling on a plane.
I only got two days at home because work-- and well, it's not like I haven't been taking my fair share of vacation days lately. ha ha ha.
My mom made this pineapple upside-down cake for a picnic. It was super.
Anyway, it's always good to be home for a few days. I got to see lots of the cousins and family members too. Always nice. That concludes this month of back-to-back-to-back summer wedding travel (Boston-Japan-Columbus). I tallied 12 different airports this month-whhooot! I should be a dang flight attendant!

Shouldn't you get an award for Most Weddings Attended or something?
Just curious: Where did you use to live in Japan?
@coolnahalf - awh, shucks! The frequent flyer miles, er, I mean, seeing my friends and family is reward enough. Japan: I did a semester study abroad fall 2001 and then JET 2003-2005. When did you start teaching in Japan?
