Yay for Fireworks (And Other Things)
[Side note: I started this a few days ago and just got around to finishing it]
So the past couple of days have been a bit of a rush. Besides being the 4th of July, the night of the 3rd was my friends’, Thais and Rabi’s, wedding. So my past 48 hours have been quite a good time. ^_^
So how was the wedding? In a single word, beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. The ceremony was held at Ray’s boathouse, overlooking the water. There was an amazing sunset going down over the olympic mountains; and the ceremony was touchingly presided over by our friend Deborah. Afterwards, there was a very nice reception.
Following the reception was the after-party. And that was even more fun. Everyone hung out at the Melo-Lahiri residence; much champagne was consumed and general merriment was had by all. Of course, this wasn’t the end. No, the next day, the bride and groom had a post wedding BBQ for everyone. Seriously, it was pretty crazy.
And to cap it all off, a bunch of us went down to Gasworks Park (which I’d never been to before), and saw the fireworks. It wasn’t the biggest I’d seen, but it was still very good.
All in all, it was a pretty good fourth.
