Cabin Up Date and The Wedding

We just returned from a nice long week up north. Got lots done on the cabin and we also gained a fabulous daughter in law. On May 6th Kelly Jo Schafer became Kelly Jo Leonard.

It was a wonderful wedding weekend. On Friday (David's birthday), the guys played golf. The weather held out long enough for them to finish and then it started to sprinkle just a bit. I had the pleasure of riding around the course in my very own golf cart snapping pictures, it was a blast to be sure.


The wedding was wonderful. The sun was out just long enough for the ceremony to be held (at the last minute) outdoors. For music Lenny's dad and his wife sang and played the guitar (Alisa sang, Tom played the guitar). Alisa has the most wonderful voice. Her and her two sisters are the Norvold sisters and do sing for many functions. They gave a few of us our very own concert during the wedding dance in a back hallway, it was wonderful!


One of the best parts for me was having a mini reunion with the class of 2000. Those kids spent a lot of time at our house and they are good kids....they can party it up good....but they are good kids.


And of course many good friends and relatives were there to help us celebrate the day and to welcome Kelly into the family. It was a great weekend.


I don't have pictures of the wedding as of yet but as soon as I get them I will post them. Until then here are a few of the other festivities that weekend.


Below is a picture of the golfing crew, a motley crew at that! There were balls in the sand and in the weeds and a golf cart was driven into the lake! But they had a good time...even David had fun.



This is Lenny's foursome (poor Lenny!) He had his best man (Aaron who is a fabulous golfer) and his two dad's (neither or which can golf) on his team. However, they did win the tournament. I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact the most of the golfers drank their way around the course????




Thursday night was the stag/stagette party. Lenny and Kel had a bus pick up everyone at Craguns and then it was off to the bars in Brainerd. I had to include this picture of the Craguns security, lights flashing, pulling alongside the bus. Go figure the class of 2000 would be pulled over! It was too funny. And yup that would be my kid poking his nose around the bus to see what was going on.....with a beer in his hand no less.





The bride and the groom in the finest ready to party as single people one last time.



Pictures of Lenny and David trying on their tuxes Thursday. Of course Lenny looked very handsome and I have to admit....David did as well! He didn't even mind wearing it I don't think.




THE CABIN


We got the kitchen finished. The cabinets turned out very nice. We do not yet have the refrigerator moved in but I think you can get the idea.



And Tackla's new and improved pool. David made it at least twice as big and it is 6 foot deep at one end. Mikey....he got the bob cat stuck while digging this two if not more times. Stuck so bad that I had to go pull him out with the truck.



On a deer finding drive one night we spotted this great sunset shinning through the trees.
