What a fun weekend spectacualr in KC!

Trying to recover still from our weekend spectacular in Kansas City from Jonathan's wedding. Can't believe mom and dad survived a week with our crazy puppy and 4 days with their overly energetic grandson! While talking to mom on Sunday before we left to come home I heard a bit of desperation in her voice as she proclaimed "Honey please please don't miss your flight home" Thanks so much could not have gone without you guys! It would have been nearly impossible to bring him at this age.

Basically the entire weekend was so much fun! It was so great to catch up with our friends. I did feel like I was back in college at a bar crawl only pregnant, sober, and nauseous only not from drinking. Ha every night I ended up heading back to our room solo and not really all that early like 11:00- 12 AM so I thought I did pretty well. But the others were out pretty late and had a bit too much fun....

The wedding itself was the most spectacular event we have ever been to! The wedding ceremony was such a cultural experience and started off dancing in the streets of KC on the way to the ceremony along with the groom. Then members from Meeta's family came over to welcome Jonathan in front of Union Station and there was a short ceremony in the lobby with the groom before heading into the actual wedding ceremony. Meeta looked so stunning in her sari (both the bride and groom wore tradiitonal Indian clothing for the ceremony) The entire ceremony lasted approx 2 hours. Then the bride and groom changed into their formal wedding attire and we all enjoyed a Indian feast. We felt so special to sit at the head table with the bride and groom. The wedding was absolutley beautiful. We were so glad to be a part of their special day. Congratulations Meeta and Jonathan!

So needless to say I am completley exhausted from the weekend events. I am happy to say I was so distracted from all the events that the nausea was not as bad as I anticipated but as soon as we returned home it came back. Luckily I got to rest a little today. I was so surprised to comeback hometo cold rainly weather. The weather in KC was so warm and sunny.

Here are a few photos from the weekend.
