As most of you heard we had a family wedding this weekend, DHs sisters son, back in NJ.  Oh my what an event.  Beautiful venue in the mountains, activities galore and only a tad over 200 guests.  Will add a few pics below.

 

Unfortunately the weekend was one of emotional highs and lows as his younger sister, not the one who's son was getting married, passed away on Friday morning.  Needless to say put a cloud over the wedding for the few of us that knew, kept it quiet for bride and groom's sake until yesterday.  Think we are all still in shock, she went to bed Thursday night and didn't wake up Friday, a young 59 with no known health issues.

 

Keep those you love close, nobody knows what tomorrow brings.

 

Now for the fun stuff

Always a floater for me. Lava Flow with a Kraken floater on top is very yummy too! Heck anything with a Kraken floater is good.

It is the Grand Cascade Lodge in Hamburg, NJ.  Beautiful location, lots of activities there as well but oh very pricey.  Of course we didn't get to use of it other than the wedding activities which were all in great spots.

 

@HBE4 tagging you as just saw you asked the same.
