Wedding Weekend!!

Well, as most of you know...this past weekend my sister, Gina got married!!! Friday morning I set out to Freeport to meet my sister, BIL, and nieces and then it was on to Biloxi! After arriving we had a couple of hours to rest before the rehearsal and after that it was on to the Biloxi Yaucht Club for dinner.
 It was a gorgeous view and I'm kicking myself for not taking pictures of it. It was a beautiful 3 story building right on the water with glass windows overlooking the water and a nice pool too! The food was DELISH although I left reaking of garlic (but it was worth it)!! Afterwards a few of us went to Margaritaville (which happened to be connected to a casino). We sat out on the back deck (which was about 1/2 the size of a football field) and listened to music. After freezing our booties off, myself, my SIL, and another bridesmaid decided to go inside the casino. I've never played slot machines but thought I'd just try it out once. I put in my $20 and literally the second pull on the slot machine, I won $40!! After that, I was done! :)
We got back to the apartment about 1 a.m., and stayed up talking with my sister Gina, other sister Lisa, and BIL for a while before it was off to bed. Saturday morning my sweet BIL went and got Dunkin Donuts coffee (and donuts), and just chilled for a few hours
before heading to the base (which is also where the reception was held). We did hair, makeup, played games,
got dressed, and then...it was time to head to the chapel! The ceremony was at 7:30 p.m. and was a catholic mass so we didn't get over to the reception until about 9:30. The reception was beautiful, delicious, and tons of fun! We all danced the night away, laughed, reminisced, and ate! The reception ended at 1 a.m. and then it was back to the apartment we headed! It was a rushed weekend but one full of memories, laughter, and love! Here are some of my favorite pics!
