Boston Trip for the Cohen/Carhart Wedding

Friday, Sept 25th Trish picked me up from work and it was off to the airport to fly to Manchester. While we were driving there, we were passed by multiple police cars and there were several helicopters circiling the airport. While waiting for the bus in long term parking, somebody told us that they had seen the cops loading up there assualt rifles and heading toward the terminal. Come to find out later, three guys had stolen a flat bed semi and had been joyriding through KC. When the bus pulled up to the terminal, we saw about 50 cop cars and a stretcher being loaded into an ambulance. Luckilly we had allowed extra time. Anyway the rest of our trip into Manchester was less eventfull. We arrived in Manchester close to midnight and Karen & Connor were waiting for us, we did a little visiting and then it was off to bed. Madelyn came down with a cold/cough/fever so the first night there we didn't get a lot of sleep.


The next morning we left Madelyn overnight for the first time and drove to Cape Cod for our friends Lauren and Ian's wedding. For the most part it was a very relaxing and calm drive, until we got about a mile from the Sagamore Bridge. It was down to one lane each way for road construction. It took us a little over an hour to go one mile. It was a little bit frustrating, but in the end well worth the wait. We got into our hotel about an hour before the buses left for the wedding. After doing some quick ironing and getting dressed we headed out to the parking lot and got on our bus. The wedding was at Ian's families home in Orleans. They had tents set up for the ceremony as well as the reception. It was a neat ceremony with a rabbi and priest jointly peforming the ceremony.


The reception was a great and a fun time was had by all. The first dance was coreographed to Michael Jackson's, "The Way You Make Me Feel". It was truly a beautiful location with water off both the front and back of the house. Ian and his groomsmen arrived by boat and the band at the reception was great. The food was delicious and the photo booth was a ton of fun. Thanks again for inviting us we had a blast and you guys make an awesome couple.


Sunday morning we got up early and went back to Trish's parents house. It was a rainy, yucky day and Madelyn wasn't feeling good so we just relaxed. We enjoyed cheesesteaks and pizza for dinner and had fun watching the Yankee's. Kelsey had come home from college to see us and it was great spending time with her.
