Let the parties begin!

We had the inagural wedding party weekend for Justin and Katherine and had a wonderful time! Justin grew up on a farm in Magnolia, MN so we all traveled north for the fun festivities. James joined the boys at Justin's brother's lakehouse near Minneapolis for a little bachelor party getaway and then we all had a great weekend celebrating Justin and Katherine in Minnesota and South Dakota. Justin's parents hosted a delicious fish fry on Friday night and the 'Texans' all got our first taste of Pike and it was awesome!! On Saturday, Justin's sister, Stacey, hosted a wonderful kitchen shower for Katherine and then his parents hosted a great party at their home that night. It was lots of wonderful food and fun and couldn't have been a better way to kick off the wedding festivities!

K&J gave Rita and Gary an aweome gift.. a beer tub personalized with The Bush Farm (hard to see in the photo) that was full of Shiner and Busch Lite! Perfect way to combine the Texas and Minnesota families :)

It was a great way to kick off such a special time for Justin and Katherine. I remember all of our wedding parties and festivities so fondly and I hope they will enjoy everything and have as much fun as we did. It's an amzing time for them as they start their life together! We love you very much, J&K! :)
