Valerie & the girls enjoyed a nice luncheon overlooking a beautiful golf course:

Pictures from Valerie’s youth were incorporated into the centerpieces.

I liked this shot of Valerie’s grandmother holding her hand as Valerie welcomed her guests.

And what is a good luncheon without some hilarious roasts?

And touching toasts…

Cake charms have been all the rage at our recent weddings:

Ryan & the boys pretended to golf after a quick lunch at BW3. (kidding, Ryan)

Cotton was growing all around the perimeter of the course - I don’t think I’d ever seen cotton growing up close before that day:

four.

In the brush:

After the luncheon, Meg made a quick stop at Valerie’s house. She had the privelage of meeting Captain (Ryan’s dog). Captain would best be described as…what I am looking for…hyper?

The party continued later that evening at Rosie’s Cantina.

Rosie’s has a cool mariachi band made of welded metal. We lit it up!
