Today is the beginning of the second week of school. I have to agree with Rebekah that I dread the beginning of school but then don't really mind it once I get used to it.
Jill Weiss's (formerly Roebuck) wedding was on Saturday. Mom played the guitar and sang twice during the service. It was really funny because right before the pastor said, 'You may now kiss the bride' one of the groomsmen yelled 'cut' and the best man, the brother of the groom, started putting makeup on the groom! The ceremony was very nice, but I kind of wish there would have been some congregational singing, but I didn't realize that it was missing until after the service was over. Although, they did have a 'Sing-a-long' of Disney songs while we were waiting to congratulate the newlyweds. The wedding started at 1:30, but the reception wasn't until 5:30, so we waited for an hour or two playing ping-pong. At approximately 4:30, we left for the reception. Stephen, Rebekah, Katherine, and I had been requested to help serve the meal. I did enjoy serving people, but it was crazier than I expected. After the meal we danced. I enjoyed the dancing, especially the English country dancing, but I only was able to dance one of the English country dances, because I couldn't find a partner in time for the first one. When the dancing was over some of us talked to a couple of the other servers our age. I really like meeting new people at weddings.
Well, I still haven't finished spinning (well, plying) the alpaca for Julie Weir. There are four balls out of nine left to be plied, so I should be done... soon.
Apparently, our basketball team lost, 57-22, the game they played on the day of the wedding. Although I am hopeful for this next game since I originally thought that Stephen and I were the only players not there, but I found out yesterday that another good player wasn't there too. We'll see what happens on Saturday!
