Yessirree bob, we are definitely in Ohio! Had a great night at the Davis household, even got to sleep in real beds! (This is a big deal for me, normally I visit with the whole extended family and sleep in the basement with all the cousins. This was the first time I got to be a real grown-up adult guest!) Ashley, Molly and I left Cincinnati and of course ran into a road block detour situation immediately. I was driving and had to follow the GPS, buuuuut I don't follow directions so well and had to make a u-turn on the first turn. So much for direct routes hehe.
Since we are in the great state of Ohio, Ashley saw a delicious treat at the Hallmark store and got them for us. Can you guess what they are?
Molly had NEVER had a buckeye before! These were super delicious, with some sort of peanut butter fudge on topto seal in the deliciousness.
After our lunch/card buying we went back to the hotel and discovered that BRAD PAISLEY is playing AKron tonight, and our hotel is the location for the roadies and bus crew! This is super coincidental for Ashley and I, because one of the first things we ever did as friends was go with our friend Danielle and her cousin to a Brad Paisley concert in some town in North Carolina (no, we do not ever remember which town it was). We got to hang out on the roadies' buses and we watched the concert from the sound booth. It was pretty sweet. Hoping to see some Brad Paisley tonight :).
We chilled for a bit in the hotel pool. There was a sign posted full of normal rules, like no horseplay and swim at your own risk, yada yada. Then I got closer to the bottom and saw something almost anachronistic in its absurdity. I'll let you look and see if you noticed what threw the three of us off.
Yep. This one right here. Holy guacamole, a BATHING CAP?! Now, I used to wear one of those when I had tubes in my ears when I was a toddler, but that's a little ridiculous of an expectation.
The rehearsal and post-rehearsal dinner went well. I can say that because I sat in the car and took a nap and read a book during the hour and a half rehearsal, so it was relaxing for me. Actually practicing the wedding in the hot, hot sun might not have been so enjoyable. The rehearsal dinner was at the groom's aunt and uncle's house....can I just say WHOA. It was gorgeous, huge, and elegant. We hung out, met some fun people, hung out with some of the girls from the bachelorette party in March, and played ping pong. We were both a little too nervous to try the rope swing on the giant tree on the hill, but it looked like fun for all the children. I think the final count at the end of the night was 8 captain and diets for Ashley. There's still a wedding tomorrow though!!!!
Goodnight!
