Picnic

About a week after our wedding, we had the opportunity to visit Hubby's hometown for the annual Catholic parish picnic, to attend a cousins wedding shower, and have our mechanic brother help a newly married couple out with their broken lawnmower!  Makes for a busy 2 days!

For our readers who didn't grow up around the catholic parish tradition of Parish picnics .... you are missing out!   The food is amazing, and the scope of this event is incredible.

Thousands of people gathered around the Parish hall for this year's picnic.

Motorcycle parking:

I'm afraid some guests may have misunderstood the exact and technical definition of "compact car".

We're excited to have our tickets!!

And a couple hours later ... its our turn to get in line!

Waiting in line is always more fun together!

At long last we made it inside the Parish Hall ... proceeded to eat too much and then collapse needing a nap!  Thank you, Mary's Home, for your fabulous welcome!

We'll see you next time!
