Anthony and Dormain's wedding

Anthony and Dormain's Bachelor/ette party!

The girls and the boys had dinner separately (pictures to come, or not) and then met up at the Tonga Room on Nob Hill afterwards. Fun was had by all!!!


What is that chocolate thing they are holding?


A highlight at this bar: very large fruity drinks with little umbrellas and lots of straws.



Don't worry, that's a virgin piña colada. :)

Haddam Neck Fair

The day after the wedding we all went to the Haddam Neck Fair. A cute little local fair with farm animals and surprisingly amazing fair food. Again, it was a gorgeous day and a perfect setting to hang out with our friends post-wedding.

We saw bunnies, chickens, roosters, pigs, horses, goats, llamas, a camel, and even sheep with shofar horns! So appropriate for the upcoming Jewish new year.





I tried to compete with the prize winning pumpkin, but at only 25 weeks I didn't really have a shot.

Bessie and Alex's wedding!

Last night we attended the most lovely wedding. Bessie and Alex got married in Connecticut at her childhood home along a river. It was bright and sunny and there was a cool breeze. It was charming and touching and we loved seeing them so happy. Plus, many of our good friends were there, so much fun was had by all.

Stern Grove wasn't foggy! :(

But we still had a great time.

Connecting with friends in Holland

Since this was the first time I was able to visit Amsterdam since we moved back to California in December 2009, my main goal was visiting friends. First we took a little train trip out to Alkmaar to visit Ruby. She got to meet my baby-on-the-way, and I got to meer her new baby (already born) Amber. So cute!




Then later on we went to dinner with Crystal, Lauren, Roger and flat Torrey.


Flat Torrey loved the Indian food! (Not too sure if flat Stanley is also into ethnic cuisine.)


And later she washed down the curry goodness with a virgin mojito. What a night!
