Texas Twosome: The Day Before We Got Hitched!

We were only one day away for the big one now. What better way to start they day off than with some delicious breakfast tacos!


My mom, step-dad, sister, uncle, Mr. P and I headed to our favorite taco place, Amigos BBQ, for fuel before we started on our busy day.

I spent the rest of the morning buying booze for the wedding and rehearsal dinner and putting the finishing touches on the cakes.

Then it was off to the nail salon for mani/pedis. (I actually had a friend offer to do my fingernails for free so I took her up on the offer the night before.)


This was my very first pedicure and it was definitely a success. I am super duper ticklish, especially on my feet, so I feared that I would kick the lady in the face or something. Thankfully that did not happen. Note to self (and others): It is a bad idea to wear skinny jeans to get a pedicure. What was I thinking?

After our nails were all finished we headed home to get ready for the rehearsal dinner. Mr. P's dad offered to host it at his house so we had everyone meet at our house so we could caravan out there. It was about an hour away and we didn't want anyone getting lost.

Mr. P's dad and his wife really out did themselves with the party. They had a western theme going with red and white checkered table clothes, horse saddles, boots with flowers and even and ranch sign with Mr. P's and my initials. And they served delicious BBQ. Yuummmm!




We had some late arrivals so decided to chow down before we practiced and it was delicious!

Once everyone arrived it was time to line up and get to the rehearsing. Our wonderful officiant, Guy ran the show for the rest of the night. (Just a small side note: we don't normally all dress like cowboys, we just thought it would be fun to ask everyone to get into the Western theme for the night.)



We really enjoyed having the rehearsal dinner because it gave our families an opportunity to meet and mingle. It was a gorgeous evening (although majorly windy) and at the end of the night Mr P. and I went our separate ways. We wouldn't see each other again until our first look the next day!
