Slept good, after I read and thought about the flat tire and what to do in the morning.
I got up early. About 7 and showered. Downstairs to get a cup of coffee. Sat down & call AAA & the rental car company. AAA came and changed the flat Found a hole in the side wall.
The rental car company asked if I could come by there & get another car. I said it was to far. Said to check local & they gave me the number.
At 9 I called the local company and no cars. I asked where I could take It. By this time Vonna, Brenda, & Bob were down for breakfast. We ate and Bob & I took off.
First to Chevy dealer. No tires, no help. Then to Chrysler dealer. No tires, called car company, looked around, and found one. By 1 we were back at the hotel.
We left as soon as we got back, off to help with the reception hall. Got it set-up and it looks really nice.
Stopped for a quick bite at McD's, off to hotel to get dressed. Got there at 3:30 & on to road before 4:30. Had to stop & get water for dinner. What a rush.

Wedding was really nice. Said their vowels and TJ sang what a great service. I cryed thinking about my granddaughter & how she wanted to be there. TJ & Mindy cryed through the whole thing. It was a great service, different, but nice.
Off we went to the reseption. Got drinks out, put reserve on the front tables, and tryed to keep things going. It was a couple of hours before the grand couple got there. Pictures. Helped get food out and it was all worth it. Everything turned out great.
Bride & Groom dance their way in. Then bride & her dad, then groom & mother. I cryed through it all.
Then food time. Mexican food was great. We sat and laughed as the dancing went on. It was a great night. The bride & groom took a couple more pictures and were off for the night. It was a perfect day & night.

| More CAKE!!!! |
Vonna's leg has bothered her and is getting worse the more she is on it. We will be able to relax the next few days.
Anyway, Vonna sat down as we helped cleanup. After awhile Angie said to go home. I got the rest of the old people and left.
We got back to the hotel, talked, & off to bed.
The wedding was great & so far we have really enjoyed the trip & the company.
Today was a lazy day. Up in the morning. Breakfast, when watched a little tv, Vonna did laundry, Bob was off, and Brenda doing something. 
I decided to go for a walk to see neighborhood. A lot of nice homes, and countryside. 
Morning came early, especially for old people. We never know how we will feel in the morning. A little stiff. 
We watched tv for little bit, showered, and by noon we had got our shoes on. Don't know where the mornings go to. 
During the afternoon the ladies drove to town while Bob & I went out to target practice with his 45 & 22. We all had a great time. 
Bob & I got back before the girls. Bob's lawn mower was ready. We picked it up. Then Bob finished his lawn. 
Our first stop was Cracker Barrel. We had breakfast even though it was closer to lunch. Vonna was feeling much better. I could tell because she was shopping. And buying!
This was a great day. It was about noon when everyone decided it was time to get dressed. We rushed around and got out of the house about 3:30. 
We stopped and got Vonna a knee brace. Her knee is feeling a little better, but still hurting. We are having fun relaxing with the retired folk. 
We got to the festival at a little after 5:15 or so. Looked at all the vendors including RL's and picked up a bunch of stuff. The food was great, music was Jazz & Blues. We had a nice time & met a lot of people. 
Vonna got right in and really liked the doctor. She said that it looks like she irritated her arthritis. She said she could get a shot or take some pills. Guess what she picked. 
Off to Walmart to pickup the pills, and a few other items. We bought a brace, but it didn't fit. Off to CVS & bought another one. It didn't fit. Will try more tomorrow. 
Vonna slept good, as long as she is off her leg she is better.
Bob & I went to Walmart. Picked up some groceries. Brenda was going to make dinner, but it was 8 by the time everyone left so we made soup & sandwiches for dinner. 
We got to church at about 10:30. We were the first there. Talked to the pastor and then TJ and Mindy got there. The pastor said that if it was his wedding he would not have been there. But TJ wanted to preach to show us what he is doing. 
The rest of us went to lunch at Golden Coral. The meal was great, although I ate to much. I think I had better stop eating so much or I will not fit into my clothes that I brought with me.
