Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Mensen!

Again, I had another very busy weekend. I don't mind it though. I'd rather be busy than bored at home!

Friday I went with my cousin Ashley down to Redwood Falls for a wedding of a friend of hers. I was her date to that wedding and she was my date for the wedding on Saturday. The reception was at Jackpot Junction Casino. Now, you can't go to a casino and and least spend 5 dollars (thats all the cash I had in my wallet). And luck me walked out with 25! I played one penny machine, won 20 bucks...and thats good enough for me!!! On our way out to catch the Cyrus fireworks and a little Karaoke, we spotted these:

Hahaha. I have no idea why I  thought this was cool....

And yes, I finally sang karaoke that night. Even though it was with my good friend Steph and my cousin Megan, I got over the first time jitters of Karaoke. Plus, most of the people were drunk and I will probably never see any of them again...

Saturday was a special day! The best man from our wedding got married! Joe was supposed to be their best man, but that didn't happen. Melissa looked absolutely stunning in her dress! I loved it! I cried more at their wedding than I did at my wedding!!! These two are such great friends and I'm happy to have them in my life. Here is a pic:

Love them! I also got to spend some more time with another one of Joe's good friends (the three of them were deployed together the first time) Pieper. And yes he does have a first name, Corey, to which I didn't know for the longest time. I met Pieper and his wife Dawn at their wedding on New Years Eve, so it was great to talk to them some more and get to know them better.  Here is a pic of all of us:

Such a good time that night! Thanks to my cousins for being my date! Many happy years to the newlyweds! (how Ironic, all three couples were married within a year!)

Sunday I spend the day working. Which was good. Always fun to be with my friends there. Speaking of Bennigan friends, I attended a surprise baby shower on Monday for Alissa. Baby Ensley is due in August. She was so surprised! She recieved some great gifts and darn cute little outfits for her little girl! I can't wait to meet her!

I hope you all have a good week. Seems I always have some errand to run! This weekend is the Brouwer family reunion in Paynesville. So Abby and I will be going there. Sadly though we have to miss my nephew's 1st birthday party on Saturday. Happy 1st Birthday Chase!!!!
