This past weekend, we went back to Rochester for a weekend of parties.
We got into town on Friday night and decided to let Matt try out the famous Darcy's horseshoe. Horseshoes are made up of a piece of Texas toast, your choice of meat, french fries piled on top, all covered in a cheese sauce. It's definitely not healthy, but it tastes good!

| He loved the horseshoe! |
Since we were at a bar, I asked if they had any non-alcoholic beer options...
 |
| This is what they had... never seen this before! |
On Saturday, we celebrated my parents and their friends 40th wedding anniversary. There was a party with plenty of yummy food, lots of drinks, cupcakes AND cake, and dancing! We had a great turnout and surprisingly not as many leftovers as we expected. Matt was in charge of the bar, so he had an excuse to be hanging out near the alcohol all night. : )

On Sunday, we had a double wedding shower brunch for my brother and Sandi and for my cousin Brian and his fiance' Sarah. My dad's side of the family all came over for the festivities. My aunt Lucy had them play the Newlywed Game. Brett and Sandi won in the end with a bonus question - who would you cast in a movie to play yourself and your fiance'. They got it half right - Brett = Nicolas Cage.
After the shower, we changed gears and had a college graduation party cookout for my cousin Chris. This was my mom's side of the family. So, out went one family, in came the other. Of course, this is what happens when you have more than one party on the same day...

It was a busy weekend, but so much fun to catch up with family and celebrate! Congrats to my Mom and Dad on 40 years! Congrats to Brett and Sandi and Brian and Sarah on their engagements and upcoming weddings! Congrats to Chris on graduating college!
