Yesterday was the wedding. :) I took off work Friday at 12noon so I could handle the prep. By 8pm, I had the salsa, artichoke dip, broccoli salad, and garlic roasted potatoes done. I had the meat cubed and marinating for the kabobs, I had the spice cookies mixed and chilling, as required, the brownies baked and cooling so I could frost them, and the shortbread cookies coming out of the oven.

Then I went to a goodbye-dinner for my friend Cristi. Once I made it home again, I cooked the meat and sliced all of the vegetables for the kabobs.

It took us a while, but Josh and I prepared kabobs until 2 in the morning. 100 of them.

The frig, pre-wedding... I don't think it could have been much fuller.

My space for the food... I had the perfect set-up to set food out, and man the grill. What you can't see is a huge umbrella that provided the table, and me, some shade while grilling the kabobs.

I didn't get pictures when the food first came out... this was towards the end of the afternoon, after most of the platters and bowls were refilled, and people were full but still grazing. The artichoke dip was a huge hit!

The second round of the main course... things were fairly well picked over! :)

Relaxing on Sunday... we were completely worn out from Saturday's festivities! Josh and Donovan wanted to battle it out on the Heroscape board.

Audri and I made so no-bake cookies to go with our afternoon of Disney movies. :)

Good thing we have tomorrow off as well!
