We loved seeing our friends from Seattle. Let me say that Josh has some of the nicest and best looking guy friends! I am very lucky to say that I have never been annoyed over my husband's buddies, they are all pretty great. We shared a lot of laughs, some at their expense. But what can you say when the shleevo (spelling) is free flowing. I have never eaten so much meat in my life. At the rehearsal dinner each table had a huge platter with a variety of meats. Meats on sticks, meats wrapped in bacon, cured meats, you name it we ate it. I giggle still cause Nikolai was concerned there wouldn't be enough meat at the reception. Let me assure you that there was. Chicken, pork and lamb. I am not complaining cause my pregnancy craving is in fact meat.
And let me tell you that these people can eat that way and maintain their figures because after such eating they dance for hours. Not night club dancing, think "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" dancing but Serbian. They had three bands and we danced all night. Nikolai is a fantastic dancer, that's one thing that drew Christine to him. And I must say that Josh and I aren't bad either. Though with the bouncing and my enormous pregnant boobs and belly I am sure I looked like a beach ball. We danced so much at the reception that I had to call it a night cause I peed my pants! Hey the baby was pressing on my bladder like a juicer! Ok it wasn't that bad but we did sleep for like 12 hours that night. We woke up in time to make it to the post-party bbq where they served... more meat!!!!!
Thank you Nikolai and Christine, we had such an amazing time. I hope we can see eachother soon!

Could you imagine being a vegitarian at something like that? What a waste! I just read your last three posts, congrats on finding out you are having a boy. I wouldn't even know what to do with a boy, so I'll stick with the girls and when they grow up, we can set them up! Also, I totally agree on the dog thing! We thought about getting a dog, and I am soooo glad we didn't. We got fish instead, and they lasted about a month before we gave them away. We are just not animal people. Hazel will be much happier at her new home!
Number one: You look hot. SO HOT!
Number two: I can picture those pregnancy boobs flopping all over the place, and I like it.
Number three: Take me with you next time. That looks like so much fun! I am sure MoMo won't mind watching three more kids, and huge drama queens at that!
I love your cover story! :) Thanks for the shout out and all the awesome pictures. I'm glad you guys had so much fun! Could you send Nikolai your pictures from the rehearsal and wedding when you have a second? I'm going to add a link to your blog to my blog page. Wooh! (I am new to blogging. :)
So I just noticed on your "shelfari" that you're reading "these is my words." It's one of my most favorites, but no one's ever heard of it. Are you reading it for book club or did you just pick it up or did someone suggest it? What do you think?
