Our Trip to Wisconsin for Lee and Sara's Wedding

Trent and I left last Wednesday and headed to Wisconsin to be there for our friends, Lee and Sara's, wedding. We had other friends come from all over and gather in Stevens Point in the days leading up to the main event, so it was great to be able to all hang out for several days.

We arrived on Wednesday evening and got together with a few people for supper and some ice cream. Then, on Thursday, Trent and I ventured out to visit the Dells of the Eau Claire Park to see what nature has developed in the Eau Claire River over many years. Trent (and Mattie too) had been there already before when they lived in Wisconsin, so I was happy to witness it for the first time too.








After our little excursion, we met up with people again and went to see the movie 22 Jump Street (quite funny) and then I went to Zumba and supper with the bride to be, Sara, and her Matron of Honor, Suzie, while the guys went out in the evening to celebrate Lee's bachelorhood one last time with supper and some drinks. 

Then came Friday, when the real celebrations started! In the evening, everyone gathered for the wedding rehearsal in Lee and Sara's backyard and then for some pizza and drinks at Mikey's.

Luke and Trent showed up wearing very similar outfits. We're not 100% convinced that they didn't plan it :)




And then came Saturday... the wedding day!

Trent was a groomsman in the wedding and he looked pretty good doing his thing! It was a beautiful wedding in a beautiful setting and everything went great!




The evolution of me a kiss for Trent!

After the ceremony, everyone celebrated with supper and dancing. We had a great meal, but Trent and Dustin felt the need to follow up supper with chicken strips and fries! All the more reason to dance off all that food, though, I guess!




We danced into the night, right up until midnight, which meant it was Trent's birthday! The bride and groom gave him a special piece of cheesecake to celebrate his special day, too!


On Sunday, we headed out in the morning back towards home. On the way, we stopped by Trent's parents' house to see his family and also to celebrate his birthday with them! We had an awesome supper and it was great to have a home cooked meal for the first time in quite a few days!


For dessert, Trent had requested Lemon Meringue Pie, and it was delicious! It was the perfect way to end our trip!
