Aww: BIL's Wedding
I just can not stop beaming over the fantastic wedding weekend we had for my brother in law and his beautiful bride! I am not sure if I mentioned this, but they got married at my husband's family resort, which is were we got married exactly six years earlier. I was always on board with them getting married on the same day, same way, etc. But over Easter my mom announced to my BIL, Inlaws, and the bride and her parents that I wanted DH in his best man speech to at least mention that it was our anniversary and how selfish I was being. Since that comment came out, I have been humiliated because I simply said that because I thought it would be weird to completely over look it.
My BIL and now SIL were so sweet about it though and while I think they went over the top about making sure everyone knew it was our anniversary (it was probably announced publicly close to 1/2 a dozen times through speeches) and we even got an anniversary cake. DH had even planned something with the DJ to have our song played (which is not an easy song to find). I did feel really bad though because the DJ had everyone clear off the dance floor for our song so I was horribly embarrassed about it being over the top and spent half the romantic song yelling and motioning for others to come onto the dance floor. 
Last night DH gave me his anniversary card which was basically about how much he takes for granted what I do and how special I am. I helped plan all of the activities for Friday, helped as the wedding director on Saturday and spent all Sunday helping clean up so everyone all weekend was telling him how great I am, which really made everything so worth it, besides how wonderful the wedding turned out and went off without any issues.
I had way too much fun this weekend and don't know if another wedding is going to live up to this for a long while! It was fantastic to hang out with the bridal party and our cousins from California for four days, though I think my liver needs a break! Ha! But I still have not lost my touch at the drinking games, even 3D beer pong!

Glad the wedding went well and you got to recognize your anniversary, too.
Happy belated anniversary!
