Trip to Nebraska

Thursday morning the four of us left for Nebraska (for my cousins wedding) around 10:00AM, we only managed to stop twice during our five hour trip. The trip back to Nebraska was for Lexie's wedding (my cousin) but we had so much planned for the four days there.

Our first stop on Thursday was in Tekamah to visit Grandma, Rich and Carol. We visited with them for a few hours then headed to Blair to drop our things off at Jim and Shelly's and change.

After we left Jim and Shelly's we headed to Omaha for the wedding rehearsal (oh yes I forgot to mention, Drew was the ring bear). When we pulled up to the church Drew was all excited because there was a race car in the parking lot (a corvette) and little did we know that it belonged to Tim (Lexie's soon to be husband). During the rehearsal I wonder how well Drew would do the next day. He walked down the aisle pretty well with Izzy and Ally, but did not want to stand up at the front...maybe if he warmed up to Casey and Korby he would? After rehearsal we were off for the dinner, during the dinner Tim and Lexie gave Drew two Ninja Turtles...and a ride in Tim's race car.

Friday Drew had to be at the church at 2:30 for pictures. He fell asleep on the way there and when he had to wake him up he was a bear...didn't want to get dressed or have his pictures taken. The wedding started at 6:00 and he did a great job, he even stood up front with Casey and Korby. After the wedding we went on to the reception, Jeremy and the boys made it until about 9:30 and they headed back to the hotel.

Saturday we spent most of the day at the zoo and that evening we grilled with the Mintken's

Sunday we ate breakfast with Jim and Shelly and headed to Tekamah. We visited with Grandma and Carol and when Rich got home from Church we all headed out for lunch at a new restaurant in town which happened to be Mom's old salon. After lunch it was time to head home, we made it home around 7:00 which gave us enough time for dinner, baths, and bed.

This is the short summary of the weekend. I will add some more posts from the wedding and the zoo.

Love ya all,
Megan
