Howdy Austin


Last weekend we went to Austin for Justin and Natalie's wedding.  While we have been to a lot of weddings since our wedding in 2002, with different groups of Mark's friends, this was the first time the whole group  was together since our wedding.  Since then, we've added lots of wives and kids to the group.  Everyone left the kids home this weekend and had some grown up fun.  Long story short, I was still recuperating on Wednesday.

Austin is a really fun city and we got to roam around a bit on Friday and Saturday before the wedding. We went to a great pool called Barton Springs and got to see a guy weeding the grass in a thong...apparently he's known as the "thong man". Go figure.


We got to tour the Texas capital, which is really quite beautiful, and Mark got to take a picture with W.


Back to the wedding. Natalie was a gorgeous bride. She made her own wedding dress, isn't that crazy? And it was gorgeous.


She made ANOTHER dress for their first dance. Also gorgeous.


This was the table just for the wedding party and their guests.


Sean, Matt, Mark and Joey


Mark and Joey.  Mark is going to be Joe's best man at his wedding in September!


Mark and Cannella, who came over a few weeks ago and brought Lyla the cutest Tea Collection dresses -- in the right sizes!  He's now Uncle Justin :)

Sean and Sara


I got really sunburned at Barton Springs that day and tried to cover it with big hair and a chunky necklace.  Didn't work so well but after a few glasses of champagne, I didn't care.


Mark and the groom.


Thinking they are back in college.


Mark showing off his "moves" on Joey.


Joey, Cory, Andy and Mark


My favorite picture.  It was the very end of the night and no one was really seeing too straight.


Second attempt at the shot


And the newlyweds are off...We can't wait to hear about their honeymoon in South Africa!


Next up -- Laura and Joey's wedding in Denver in September!!
