Whirlwind Weekend

WOW!!! What a weekend last weekend was?!?! Dusty and I said "I do" in front of all of our friends and family on Friday afternoon (June 25, 2010). The wedding was a blast!! Dusty and I had so much fun, but continue to wish we could have slowed the day down so we would have had more time to enjoy it. Our friends had so much fun catching up and dancing the night away. I am so glad they were able to make the trip to southwestern ND. I am very thankful for all of the help Mary, Lindsay, Lynsey, and all of my family members were able to give us. There will be pictures to come!!!

On Saturday we opened gifts and then my brother, Aaron and I headed to Williston with two Hereford heifers so he could show at the North Dakota Junior Beef Expo. After a delay due to pick-up problems, we finally got the heifers to Williston. Aaron showed on Sunday. We showed an April heifer and a January heifer. Both heifers won their class and the January heifer was selected as Reserve Champion Hereford Heifer. We were both very pleased with the show. The ND Jr. Hereford Assc. also had their annual field day in Williston. Aaron was the Grand Champion Senior Hereford Showman. Way to go Aaron!!! Keep up the hard work!!! (Pictures are coming...I promise!!!)

When I got back on Sunday, Dusty had made a nice romantic supper with candles, flowers, and a bottle of French wine (straight from France) we received as a wedding gift from our Jamie May. He had set our coffee table since we don't have a kitchen table. Everything was fabulous. The wine and food were delicious. I was completely surprised and he definately took my breath away!!! He is such a wonderful husband!! Dusty had also hung up one of our favorite wedding presents....a picture of three Hereford calves we received from our friends Matt, Tom, and Jake.

Now Dusty and I are trying to fit everything in our apartment. I continue to sort through things and try and find homes for them. Dusty and I already have a busy weekend planned for this weekend. We plan to go to Bismarck to take a few things back, get a kitchen table, and pick up a few things we didn't get at the wedding. Saturday night we plan to hit up a rodeo in either Killdeer or Dickinson. I'm not sure how we end up cramming so many activities into one weekend, but at least we know it won't be boring!!
