Advanced Congratulations

Just want to send my love out to the soon-to-be Opiana's who will be tying the knot tomorrow. Hubby and I were blown when we decided that we wouldn't be able to make the festivities out in San Diego, but just like we told the blushing bride and groom, we'll be there in spirit!

This honestly would've been da BEST time to go back to CA and visit with our homies back home. As much as we have been adjusting to life out here in the Midwest, we've definitely missed our various circle of friends. Da "Hustler crew" was a unique set of friends 'cuz everyone there was either engaged or married! 'Twas a great couple group to hang with and we SO miss our dinners out with them all. Hopefully another opportunity will present itself and we'll have a mini-reunion to look forward to. Hey, there's still another wedding in September- on Labor Day weekend to be exact! These couples were pretty smart, mind you, to schedule their nuptials on national holidays. Know what that means, right? Three-day weekends for their anniversaries for the rest of their lives! I had to make sure that ours fell during summer vacation away from school. For most teachers, especially this particularly unemployed one, lives for the summers and what better time to tie the knot? Speaking of which, let me get a shout-out to one of my gal pals out at Cornerstone who will be tying the knot with her man in Maui...if I remember correctly, the ceremony is in just a couple of weeks. So advanced congrats to the future Chan's!

Again, much love, hugs, and congrats to the Opiana's! Wish we could be there to celebrate your special day. You're in our hearts, thoughts, and prayers. Miss you guys!

Enjoy this long weekend, ya'll! Have fun and be safe in whatever you do. Peace!
