Suffice to say the wedding rehearsal went well, the lasagna and walnut pound cake was awesome, and after we bought a new cooler and 44 lbs of ice in which to put all the leftovers, it fell out of the car onto Mom’s toe. Yeah, the very same one in the “boot”. Not good.

But she put ice on it, and the rest of us all had a good time in the hotel pool until we all got overwhelmed and/or coughy and/or asthmatic from the chlorine and steam.
