Photobooth Fun

We went to Rachel and Nick's wedding last Friday and had so much fun!  One of our favorite parts was the photobooth.  They had all kinds of props and costumes you could wear. We kept it simple with our hats representing our college football teams.  Enjoy our weirdness...

Now if I can only get my hands on mom and dad's photobooth picture...

Get Down...top dancing wedding pics!

I have to say that with a Friday night wedding you never know how much guests will be able to let loose and dance after either traveling all day to get into town or working all day.  Well boy did they dance...and sing solos with the band...and play the tambourine.  I think music is one of the most important parts of a wedding and will either make or break the party.  We had the greatest band, Loose Chain.  Here are some of my favorite shots from the night!

Baby Cate got the party started!

Please take note of my 85 year old grandmother front and center

I had to admit the guys dominated the dance off

This is what happens when they leave their kids for the weekend

A Loyal Soccer Fan

Note: Chris was not a big fan of me starting this blog because he felt like it was putting too much of our personal life out there.  So I'm curious as to what he will say when he sees I posted pictures of him playing soccer :)

He is part of a soccer league in Charleston and they have their games every Sunday.  I am proud to say I make most games and am a loyal fan.  They have only lost one game.  Chris has scored 2 goals and many assists he makes sure to point out.  Tony - what is your count up to now?

I had to be real discreet in taking these pictures because I didn't want to look like the psycho picture wife sitting in my Georgia tailgate chair on the sidelines.

Lunch at Bishop Gadsden

My grandparents moved into Bishop Gadsden a couple of years ago.  It is like a college campus for older folks.  They park their golf carts outside with their little dogs, go to the pub, swim in the pool and who knows what other kinds of activities.  I can't even begin to describe how funny/nice/gorgeous this retirement home is.  Every time I go in, their interior decorator has put new furniture and curtains in the lobby area.  I really would hire the same decorator to come to my house. 

About once a month we go there after church for Sunday lunch.  Talk about fine dining.  They have a buffet, carving station, build your own omelet station, dessert stations, bloody mary's, mimosas...you name it.  If you have never been there, here are a few pictures just to give you a taste of what it is like.

Pumpkin Carving with the Girls

Last night we got together and carved some pumpkins...here are the works of art.  Katie and I shared a pumpkin and carved a lab/golden retriever.  Her grandfather was the judge and voted ours the winner!  You can't tell in this picture but Beth's pumpkin is throwing up!

Treasures from the Attic

Over the weekend, I helped my parents clean out their attic.  Oh the things we found.  Here are a few gems we stumbled across.

Yes, don't be jealous of my modeling.

My friend Jennifer and I used to be obsessed with these two games. If you hurry, you can get these for yourself at the Mt. Pleasant Goodwill.

School projects...I feel like that is all middle school was.  Please take a look at my OCD display board.

First Fire of the Season in the Berge House

I know I know, I think the lowest it got this weekend at night was in the 60s, but I was freezing!  So we stopped by Lowes to get some wood and a starter log and built our first fire of the season.  I was a little toasty about an hour in, but it was worth it.  After growing up in Charleston, give me 100 degrees plus anyday, but the second it starts dropping below 70 degrees, bring out the jackets and start the fires.

Busy Fall Weekend

This weekend was full of fun times with friends and family.  Logan and Mark tied the knot here in Charleston!  We had such a good time at their rehearsal dinner and wedding!

Last week marked the 6th anniversary of my brother's passing.  Every year friends and family get together for a paddle out to remember him.  Below are pictures from previous years.

The day of the paddleout marks the beginning of bonfire season at the Keil house!
