Friday was really laid back. We got up and had an amazing breakfast at the lodge, and hen loaded up and headed into San Antonio. After checking into the room, we were basically free to lounge around until the rehearsal dinner.
The rehearsal was enjoyable - there were a lot of funny moments, and a lot of girls and at one point the groom almost biting it while ascending the stairs to their places before the altar. Nothing like falling even before the long dresses and heels to make a girl nervous she'll make a spectacle of herself. My friend who hates orange (she says it clashes with her hair) happened to get the only practice bouquet with orange flowers - which I thought was hilarious, and Jordan looked like a ballerina while trying to relax his legs from standing at the front for so long.
At the rehearsal dinner I found out that two girls I went to high school with were cousins of the groom, which only solidified my roommate's idea that I know everyone in the world. The food was great and the guys spent the evening around a hookah debating and chatting the night away.
Funny moments:
One of the guys recommended to Jordan that he take a hit from the hookah, exhale a little, take a bigger hit, exhale a little, take an even bigger hit, and then hold it in. Jordan tried it, and after gasping, was prodded, "Did you feel it? Did you?". Jordan replied, "I think it was the lack of oxygen I was feeling!"
Two of my favorite girls, Amanda and Sara, were part of the wedding party. Amanda is very elegant and refined, classy, deceptively intelligent and a little reserved. Sara is very upfront and energetic, blatant and honest with a huge heart. I love them both for those exact reasons. They passed the table on the way to the bathroom and my roommate remarked, "That right there is the difference between those two," for Amanda asked, "Do you know where the restroom is?" and Sara announced, "I have to go potty!"
