Another eventful weekend

We spent the weekend celebrating a number of events with our friends.

The first big event was our friends' wedding, in which Ryan was a groomsman. The rehearsal dinner was at a Mexican restaurant that served delicious fish tacos (my dinner) and had a fun mariachi band that we got to serenade the groom- and bride-to-be.

The wedding itself was at a place called Paradise Cove, which had a beautiful beach setting overlooking a lake. Despite a very rainy week, the weather held off and it was lovely out. We had a lot of fun hanging out at the cocktail hour and enjoying a night of dinner and dancing.
After spending some time at the "after-party", we arrived back home to the great news that our other friends welcomed their new baby girl into the world early Saturday morning. I am so excited to meet the little one - especially because I have already seen pictures and she is gorgeous!
To top off the weekend, we spent most of the day at the Audi dealership setting Ryan up with a new (pre-owned) A6 to take the place of his beloved Tahoe. It's a great car and really suits him. And even though we won't have an SUV in the family for a little while, I am already getting excited about what kind of SUV I will get when my own lease is up in a year and a half.
When we got home, we had a bar-b-que on Saturday night to "tailgate" before the Magic game. It was nice not to have such a nail-biter of a game to watch and to celebrate our team entering the NBA finals, which start on Thursday.
After such a busy few days, we spent a lazy Sunday getting ready for the first full work week in a while. Bummer!
