this past weekend was no ordinary weekend for deeann and i. it wasn’t a normal weekend for our close friends ren & rebecca. this past saturday they were married at her parents acreage in wisconsin, surrounded by 50 of their closest friends and family. it was a wonderful day celebrating these two amazing people.
in addition to being in wisconsin for the weekend, we spent the week in iowa visiting our families. we spent some time with deeann’s parents and had the opportunity to celebrate her dad’s birthday with a surprise visit from her sister, who lives in arizona. we went to the fair and consumed our fair share of food on a stick…sausage, corn-brat(similar to corndog), italian sandwich, fresh lemonade, pulled pork, and much more. we then made our way to iowa city to spend some time with a few friends and to hang out with my sister and brother-in-law. after that we continued down the interstate towards davenport to see my parents and our pup taylor. we had a great time eating, watching olympics, and playing with the dogs. then we went up to wisconsin, but i already told you about that.
it was a great week away. now we gear up to have some more visitors to portland!
for pictures of the week go here for our time with family and here for our time with ren & rebecca.
