Many of you know that I am originally from the great state of Maine. This past weekend I flew up for a close friends wedding. Here is a list of some things I did while in Maine…

Friday:

1. Landed in PWM and was picked up by my mom at 7:00 PM.
2. Went to Alex’s Pizza - got a double pepperoni, just the way I like it.
3. Went home and had a couple scoops of Peppermint Stick Ice-Cream from Martel’s.

Saturday:

1. Went to the Village by the Sea in Wells (where the wedding, reception, and our hotel room was located).
2. Enjoyed one of the best weddings I’ve witnessed (lasted about 15 minutes, YAY!)
3. Went to the reception.
4. Open bar for the first hour, so I decided to get a Bailey’s Irish Creme on the rocks.
5. Danced.
6. Danced with the bride.
7. Danced some more.
8. Danced with my mom.
9. Danced some more.
10. Danced even more.
11. After finding out that I went to seminary, some girl asked me what Biblical character I most resemble… I said I had no idea but I try to resemble Jesus.
12. Went to the after-party with the family and friends.
13. Went to the after-after-party to finish watching the Red Sox game - everyone fell asleep, so I went to my own room and finished the game.

Sunday:

1. Headed to Rosa Linda’s for breakfast (I just realized, every place in Maine that I enjoy is named after a person).
2. Went to visit my Nana for a couple hours.
3. Went to the after-after-party at the Bride and Groom’s house… had to leave early because I didn’t bring my allergy medicine and they have two cats.
4. Went to Seabrook Poker Room in New Hampshire with my dad to play in a Texas Hold’em Tournament (came in somewhere around 21st).

Monday:

1. Mom made me some Fried Dough for breakfast (yum!).
2. My cousin Amy came over to visit - had the opportunity to talk about Christianity, Religion, and what the Bible actually says about Jesus. We talked for a few hours, it was a great conversation. She has some health issues and is a little upset at God right now. So please be in prayer for her.
3. Drove to Best Buy and picked up my parents some networking hardware for their computers.
4. Went to visit my Aunt Patty and Aunt Barbara & Uncle Donald (Pronounced ahnt not ant).

Tuesday:

1. Bride’s parents came over for one last visit with me.
2. Mom went to get some famous donuts from Reilly’s Bakery (see, another name!).
3. Family friend came over to visit with me.
4. Picked up a couple more pizza’s from Alex’s’ to bring home for me and Kati (we use to eat them almost every Friday when we lived in Maine).
5. Got a Spaghetti and Bacon pizza from Amato’s (I think this is a person’s or family name too!).
6. I setup the networking equipment and some other stuff for my parents.
7. Mom made me some of her famous fried chicken livers for dinner.
8. Headed back home to North Carolina.
