A long weekend

 

 

Weather delayed flights out of, and in to, Denver; going and coming Friday and Monday.  Diverted to other cities.  Late nights.  When we got back to Becky and Brian’s at 1:30 this morning, the World Cup Women’s Soccer match was on live television from New Zealand, so the night got even a little longer.  In-between, a very nice Saturday and Sunday in Portland helping Elisa and Solomon celebrate their wedding.  Andy and Christie drove down from Washington.

 

There was a reception party.


 

Never mind Christie in the background.  I think she was savoring a flavor.

 


 

Food was abundant.


 


 


 

 

And not one to be bound by convention, Elisa’s choice for a wedding cake was to have it in the form of an armadillo.


 

Red velvet, with structure provided by malleable white chocolate, held together by plenty of frosting.  Provided by a talented friend.

 

Lots of people and lots of different conversations at the party.  Plenty of time for the six of us to visit the rest of the weekend.
